Three years, hundreds of spell slots, and almost a thousand hours since my first Baldur's Gate 3 playthrough, I can't say I ever wished to see it immortalized on the small screen. One of the greatest things about it is how any stone left unturned can simply be investigated next time around. It's that expansive sense of adventure, storytelling, and worldbuilding that makes it one of the best RPGs of all time, not to mention the most replayable.
It's also why I cannot comprehend how the upcoming Baldur's Gate 3 TV show, led by The Last of Us' Craig Mazin, will deliver a direct sequel to something with so many endings – including one where everybody in the whole world dies – and not enrage legions of already sceptical fans in the process.
