Hi BG3 community! Currently downloading the game now that I have a computer capable of running it.

I'm at 18gb/119gb and I expect about an hour more of downloading, so I was wondering if anyone had any recommended guides for a new player? Videos, infographics, etc? I like playing as either archers or magic users, if that helps.

I’m going to slightly go against this by saying there are some important buttons to know that will make your exploration of the game better / easier

The two biggest are (for PC):

Shift - shows you the line of sight of npcs in a red cone, making it far easier to try and sneak around (especially important for Rogues)

Left alt - Highlights important interact-able objects on screen

Good callouts for sure!
