I got it on PS5 (co-op) and in the space of 2 hours had randomly silent cutscenes, an invisible character in one, and my PSN Name and a mute icon permanently stuck the top left of the screen where all the information about rolls and characters liking or disliking things should appear.

Didn't get any tutorials either, which is apparently a thing. So we're just randomly pressing things and hoping it doesn't fuck up the story for later.

It's really quite broken in places.

Well, Just download a D&D 5th edition player manual

The game rules here are actually very different. I play a ton of 5e D&D and it's close enough to be useful but different enough to trip me up. S great example I just found out last night after over 80 hours of play as a Paladin: the smite spells last 10 turns and apply to each attack. In 5e the smite spells only affect one attack and are usually worse than divine smite (which isn't a spell be uses a spell slot) because divine smite you decide to use when you hit so it never wastes a spell slot while the others can miss.

I would copy it but the fucking D&D Beyond app prevents copying. The smite spells in 5e say "on the next hit" basically. A lot of spells in BG3 have simplified descriptions and it's hard to know when it is different language or a different effect.
