Baldur's Gate III

It captures the feel of D&D. In fact, it does so better than its distant ancestors Baldur's Gate I and II. While I love the Infinity Engine games, it lacks as a storytelling engine, whereas this one excels. The frequent skillchecks are exactly what let you tell your character's story.

Not too far into the game yet, so these are just initial impressions. I'll update the review once I get time to really experience this game to the end.
