Solasta 2 is perfectly poised to fill a Baldur's Gate 3 void


Got a Baldur's Gate 3-shaped hole in your life? Solasta 2 may well be the thing to fill it with.

The clarity with which French studio Tactical Adventures has transposed the hefty Dungeons & Dragons ruleset is astonishing; I actually prefer parts of this interpretation, which is a hell of a thing to say, given the quality of Larian's game. In my preview build, there's sumptuous detail in the Shire-like village environment, which is all hazy sunshine and swaying meadow flowers, and there's high drama in the rocks and cliffsides suspended as if by magic around them. Pathfinding is swift, with toggle-able click-to-move or direct-move controls, and you can jump and swim with the press of a button rather than having to select it as an ability, as in Baldur's Gate 3.
