Former Skyrim dev praises Baldur's Gate 3 for the RPG's faithfulness to Dungeons & Dragons: "That's as close as we've gotten to tabletop role-playing on a computer"

Veteran Bethesda Game Studios developer Bruce Nesmith, who worked on RPG genre gems like Skyrim, thinks that Baldur's Gate 3 is "at the very top" when it comes to games based on Dungeons & Dragons – and there are good reasons why.

Speaking to FRVR during a recent podcast, Nesmith reveals as much, admitting that he'd say Baldur's Gate 3 is the best attempt so far at faithfully computerizing the D&D experience. "I would absolutely put, right now, Baldur's Gate 3 at the very top of the list." He also praises Baldur's Gate 2, a title that released in 2000. "That was two dozen years ago, and that was a fantastic game; I loved the heck out of that game."
