It has been one year since its release. Baldur’s Gate 3 has won the hearts of fans and critics alike, winning numerous awards and galvanizing the imaginations of thousands of gamers online.
As soon as Baldur’s Gate 3 was released, gamers across the board were impressed by Larian Studios’ wonderful world building and immersive gameplay. The game is based upon the fantasy role-playing system of Dungeons and Dragons (DnD), but whether you are familiar with the mechanics of DnD games or not, Baldur’s Gate 3 has opened this world to new players and new gamers,, purely based on the strength and quality of the storytelling.
At Streamily, we’ve been lucky enough to work with the incredible cast of Baldur’s Gate 3, from Neil Newbon (Astarion), Devora Wilde (Lae’zel), Tim Downie (Gale) and many more. It’s the actors' incredible talent that has brought these amazing characters to life, inspiring thousands of cosplayers at conventions, memes and community inside jokes.
The actors involved have been integral to the community building amongst the BG3 fans. When they aren’t at a convention speaking to fans in person, they’ve collectively spent hours signing prints for fans online via Streamily, chatting to people, doing shoutouts and giving up their time to give back to the Baldur’s Gate 3 fans, who are some of the most open, caring and engaged group of people on and offline.
In these somewhat harsh times, games like Baldur’s Gate 3 have truly brought people together; fans of the game have laughed together, cried together, and taken a unique journey together with their favourite characters. Not only do the actors get to wear a mask and play these characters, so do the players - the world of Baldur’s Gate 3 is a true safe space of escapism, fun and freedom, to step into another life, in someone else’s shoes is freedom.
Since the game’s release, Baldur’s Gate 3 has brought people together in ways both the actors, studio and all the creatives involved could not have imagined. It’s evident anytime there’s a BG3 live event on Streamily, how beloved the actors are and how much care fans have for this beautiful game. However, Baldur’s Gate 3 is more than just a game, it has shone a light on the best of what we can be when we come together as gamers, as humans, and as a community.
