Hi BG3 community! Currently downloading the game now that I have a computer capable of running it.

I'm at 18gb/119gb and I expect about an hour more of downloading, so I was wondering if anyone had any recommended guides for a new player? Videos, infographics, etc? I like playing as either archers or magic users, if that helps.

I second the one about learning the rules of DnD. There so much extra stuff you can do like throwing things or magicking yourself around that I didn’t know for a while. I use the wiki a lot to understand what’s available to find in the zones, but avoid using it in narrative decisions. I also save scum a lot so I don’t miss out on loot.
