Baldur’s Gate 3: How To Craft Masterwork Weapons

Starfield is sitting proudly at the top of Steam's top-seller charts days before its official release.

Baldur's Gate 3 is a hit with fans and critics alike, boasting an incredibly high Metacritic score of 96, making it one of 2023's highest-rated games, and one of the highest-scoring PC games of all time. But as great as it is, people still have hot takes, and thousands of fans have flocked to Reddit to share their own.

Baldur's Gate 3 has a pretty cool selection of companions for you to choose from, each with their own unique charms and quirks that makes travelling around with them and watching them interact with each other an absolute joy. However, a certain blunt Githyanki has caused somewhat of a stir on social media this past week, as some believe Lae'zal's status as the game's least popular companion is because female characters are held to a much higher standard than male ones.

One of the central mechanics that players will need to engage with in Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon is editing their Armored Core mech, also known as ACs. Customizing an AC includes the ability to change the look of the mech with different colors, emblems, and decals along with the ability to edit its weaponry to construct class builds that will be important when preparing to approach an objective or enemy. With this being such a huge part of the game, players will want to understand how to use it. This guide will provide players with a full explanation of how to customize their AC in Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon.

The first major patch for Baldur's Gate 3 has dropped—and it's a doozy, so much so that it can't even fit on the Steam page: «Patch 1 is too big for our usual patch notes due to Steam’s character limit». 

Baldur's Gate III is arguably the game of the summer, and it isn't even out on consoles yet. Developer Larian Studios has taken a "it'll be out when it's ready" approach to releasing the game on various platforms. After becoming an instant hit on Windows when it came out of early access earlier this month, Baldur's Gate III will land on PlayStation 5 and macOS on September 6th. The exact Xbox release date is still unclear, but Larian has finally confirmed the massive RPG will come to Microsoft's consoles later this year.

Throughout Baldur's Gate 3, you will spend time with a strange skeleton at camp. He's called Withers, and not much is known about him other than the fact he can respec your class and summon the dead to fight for you. But given his scene at the end of the game and the tomb you find him in, there's clearly more to Withers than meets the eye.

During the Gamescom Opening Night Live 2023 stream, two cool dudes—Todd Howard and Geoff Keighley—stood on stage and discussed Starfield.

Diablo franchise lead Rod Ferguson says Diablo 4 will feature more ambitious seasons than earlier games in the series because it's trying to appeal more to traditional RPG fans as well as action-RPG grinders.

The Baldur’s Gate series is no stranger to romance. Players could pursue a select handful of characters in Baldur’s Gate 2: Shadows of Amn to pursue, and in some cases even start a family with them. So it’s no surprise that Baldur’s Gate 3 features a range of options for characters to romance. And while all of these options feature their own unique story that helps flesh out each of your major companion characters, some romances definitely feel more rewarding than others. Especially depending on what class or background (and in some cases Origin), you’ve selected.

Not everything in Baldur’s Gate is entirely true, and you might learn this while reading Baldur’s Mouth as you’re exploring Baldur’s Gate 3. The city’s newspaper likes to embellish some details, especially if a story is particularly good. During the final act of Baldur’s Gate 3, there’s a character named Estra Stir who you can speak with, and it turns out she’s a journalist for the Baldur’s Mouth.

Karlach is one of the few companion characters you can find while playing Baldur’s Gate 3. Shortly after meeting her, you’ll discover that an infernal engine has gone into her chest, replacing her heart. It’s a device that can only function in Avernus, and she’s trying her best to repair it throughout your campaign. However, she has few options available, and it looks like the deck is stacked against her.
