Disclaimer: if this is how you like to play that is okay.

I find it so confusing that people are asking for specific builds with what spells to take and what items to equip. Although it's a singleplayer game with a difficulty that doesn't require much optimization (if any) even on tactician. I really enjoy trying different builds that seem fun regardless if they are the strongest or not, so to me following a build would take out half the fun of the game.

I come from MMOs, didn't know anything about DnD nor cRPGs, I needed to be told everything on how to build a char, what spells to take and what items to get. I don't personally ask but reading responses to other players questions helps me immensely.

It took me a month to learn the rules and understand what's available in game (DnD is hard lol, when you start from nothing) and now I can start making my own choices even if I don't yet fully understand everything.

I guess there are other people like me, BG3 is not only for DnD/cRPGs fans.
