Baldurs Gate 3 is fun! Who would have thought, the game everyone said is good, is, in fact, good.
My standards for RPGs are so low that the main story being competent has me really impressed. I think the parasite is a great hook to bring together characters from different backgrounds, with different goals and moralities. There are many reasons for your character to do a quest, like for investigating the goblin camp. You could go there to save the emerald grove and Halsin (altruistic), to recover the Songbird and get the parasite removed (self-interested) or to destroy the emerald grove and side with Minthara (evil).
Mechanically, I like how much common sense applies. If you grease a surface, then it becomes susceptible to fire. People in metal armour are susceptible to lightning. Pushing someone off a chasm kills them.
I really like the nudity, it's the best nudist representation I've seen in a game. I get to play as a naked sorcerer, with 15 AC thanks to my draconic bloodline, and it's just not an issue. I really like that it's an option. I also like that genitals are not tied to body shape, but I do wish there was more body customisation options.
