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.

The game is not really very much like dnd, the ttrpg, at all. I would not concern yourself with knowing anything about it if you don't already.

It's based on dnd 5e so if you're familiar with that ruleset you'll be better off.

It's as much dnd 5e as it is Monopoly.
