For traditionelle RPG-fans, så bliver august og september særligt tætpakket, eftersom både Baldur's Gate III og Starfield udkommer. Førstnævnte er for nylig blevet rykket frem til d. 3 august, og du kommer til at skulle bruge den ekstra tid, for spillet er meget, meget langt.
Faktisk har Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke slået fast i et interview med IGN, at Baldur's Gate III vil tage mellem 75 og 100 timer at gennemføre i et "standard playthrough". Du kan fordoble det estimat, hvis du gerne vil se det hele:
"There will be people who will be way over that, the ones who want to do everything. They will probably hit 200 hours, I think. On average, we're seeing people who are going through take about 75 to 100 hours."
Der er også genspilningsværdi fordi de forskellige karakterklasser føles anderledes at spille. Dette slår Vincke også fast:
"It has an enormous amount of replay because there are so many ways to do things. I think people will re-roll a lot. We have this insane amount of classes, sub-classes, races, and sub-races. This is not a small game where you'll be done within a month. You will be playing it in bits and chunks. Maybe you will drop in with a friend in multiplayer - we have drop-in/drop-out multiplayer also. There are so many ways of playing it. We saw with [Divinity: Original Sin 2] also, people played it for years. There are still quite a lot of people playing it, still discovering new things that are in there. This one is significantly bigger, with significantly more layers of depth to it also. I don't think you'll be done in a month, is what I'm saying."
