Baldur’s Gate 3: How Using D&D 5e Changes The Game From BG 2

Baldur’s Gate 3 uses the rules from the latest edition of Dungeons & Dragons, which are drastically different from the ones used in Baldur’s Gate 2. This is because the two games were released decades apart, and DnD changed a great deal over that period of time. Baldur’s Gate 2 used the second edition rules of DnD, while its successor uses the 5e rules. The implementation of DnD elements into the game also differs drastically, resulting in a gameplay style that is completely new in certain ways. 3D visuals and a combat overhaul change up the Baldur’s Gate franchise while maintaining certain essentials of the experience.
