Baldur’s Gate 3 players call for must-have feature from previous games to be added
Larian StudiosThe Baldur’s Gate 3 community has been comparing the game to previous entries in the series, and while it comes out on top in most aspects, there are a couple of features that players want to see added to the latest release.
Larian Studios has always been very responsive when it comes to adding highly-requested features to the game. When players called for a way to change their Tav’s appearance on the fly, the magic mirror was added to the camp in the very next patch, and when people felt like they wanted an extra challenge, they unveiled Honour Mode.
But Baldur’s Gate has always remained close to its tabletop origin, and because of that there’s always a lot of investment in the stats and figures working behind the scenes as well as the flashier mechanics.
One feature that made it into previous Baldur’s Gate games, but isn’t available in the latest release, allowed you to track which party member has killed the most enemies, and players are wondering if it could make its way into Baldur’s Gate 3.
Players want to see a breakdown of which party member killed the most
Let’s face it. At some point you’ve wondered just how useful Shadowheart really is. Well, with this feature, you’d be able see just how many people she didn’t kill throughout your playthrough.
One player posted a screenshot from the previous games, saying: “In Baldur’s Gate 1 & 2 I loved this useful set of stats. Baldur’s Gate 3 needs this.”
Other trackers included total experience value, favorite spells, and the time spent with the party.
Several comments agreed, with one reading: “That would be a really cool feature even though I think I know the breakdown. Astarion and Karlach lead for Experience, because they take down the BBGs. Karlach and my Tav for number of kills because I have AOE, and she can get like 5 actions per turn by level 10.”
Realistically, either Lae’zel or Karlach will be topping those particular charts.
