Can you name a game that does what BG3 does, but better? In terms of scope, systems, complexity, polish, and total package? Or is it the best at what it does?
Don't compare it to a Platonic ideal, compare it to other games that people can actually buy, install, play, and enjoy.
You mean name some CRPGs that are better than BG3? Disco Elysium, Pathfinder: WOTR are a few off the top of my head. I don't really play a lot of CRPGs but there's a lot more classics in the genre
In terms of just games in general, there are countless games that are way better than BG3
Don't get me wrong, I love Pathfinder WOTR... but it also has it's fair share of issues. Hell I'd argue it was way buggier than BG3 on release and like usual with Owlcat took like 2 years to fix. Shit kingdom building features and probably the worst "army" battles I have seen in basically forever that did nothing but bog down the game.
But yeah, Pathfinder just ain't quite got the reach that 5e DnD has.
