      Nope, I’m playing DOS2, since that’s been sitting in my steam library for way too long!

      THEN maybe I’ll BG3. If my laptop can handle it…

      I’m finishing D:OS2 first with another party. Also Larian games are always better a couple months or so after release, so I don’t mind waiting. So no not the only one :)
