How many people do you know who got interested in the game because of BG3? I imagine I'm not the only one.

I've always had a passing interest in it but my only friend who plays lives 8 hours away. I did a one shot campaign while visiting him years ago but I was totally overwhelmed. Now that I've played BG3 I'm thinking about finding a local game shop to meet some players..

BG3 seems like a great primer for D&D. I've only played D&D a couple times in the past but BG3 showed me I was playing pretty poorly. BG3 visualizes concepts/mechanics/systems really well, if anyone I knew wanted to get into D&D I'd suggest they play around with BG3 first. I was going to pick up a bunch of D&D materials when they went on sale recently, but a lot of people were saying the new player handbook and core rulebook and stuff were due to come out in 2024 so I decided to wait til then.

Good call! I didn't know that about the handbook. I guess I'll wait too!
