Why Act 3 Is The Worst Part Of Baldur’s Gate 3

Although Baldur’s Gate 3 has distinguished itself as one of the biggest and best releases of 2023, the game still makes a number of notable missteps, which become increasingly common as the end of the game draws closer. Several factors leave the third act of Baldur’s Gate 3 feeling significantly less polished and cohesive than the content preceding it in ways that can end up being disappointing. Lackluster quests, reduced reactivity, and an increase in performance problems and bugs all contribute a third act that, for some, can feel like a step back from the rest of the game leading up to it.
