Since it just launched in EA. Don't expect that to happend until atleast 1 - 2 year. The full game is also gonna be 150 According to Steam. And EA currently is about 70 gb. That means they have 70 more gigs left to finish. And that will most likely take roughly 1 - 2 years to do as well. So by either end of 2021 or at start of 2022 i expect the game to be fully ready for release and out of EA.

Looks like they know some of us can spend an hour or two in character creation. 😅 Amazing music!

Oh yes! Now I can finally close the game!

3:11 This is amazing. Such a gentle, sweet and clear voice. It warms my heart.

So, having been a huge fan of BG 2, I dumped nearly 400 hours into that game. The character creation music of BG 2 is memorable and invokes thought and imagination for me. I think this does the same, when you can sit and think on a character imagining them to life in this world we're about to explore. This game is shaping up to be one of the greats and worthy of it's place in the line of legendary Baldur's gate games. There's already a bunch of little easter eggs in reference to the Spawn of Bhaal adventure from random accounts in books scattered in the game. See you all down by the river.

Imagine if DA: Origin's. Leliana's Song, had more similar songs in that game to Leliana's Song and performances of characters singing fantasticly memoreable god like songs with their vocals. This is exactly a result right here of how that would have looked, that could have being. This vocalist and the Music from this game. Is unlike any Fantasy Music i have ever heard in many years, probably since Skyrim.

best soundstracks of a game by far

Already love it this game! I already have over 20 hours and I just got it, making new characters and just messing around exploring. Can’t wait for the full release. I also hope it will support mods, like neverwinter and all the other games.

The atmosphere is calm yet anticipation and intensity fill the air water flowing endlessly as the breeze sets the pace Still a watcher sits. Reflections of the sky and river its eyes. Unwavering still yet stuck in time. A sole elf stands trapped in the moment. All but frozen if not for her gestures. Perhaps a moment longer, a watcher too within consistency. To leave could mean perhaps only a fleeting memory. Siren or angel a voice breaks through. Calling down in song as if to paint her a portrait within sound A gift A final remembrance of calm. Her mind set at ease whether it be temptation or destiny. A foot forward now to join the ever flowing unknown and make her marks The River.

My brain: dis is some peaceful ass shit.... Me: we arent used to this are we? My brain: no... Also my brain: but im loving this
