Unknown. Initially it was to be up to level 10 due to work required to implement spells. In, I think, RPS interview some months ago information technology was said the level cap will exist well-nigh likely slightly higher then that, simply there is no word of how high information technology will be.

If they stay true to 5th edition it should be level xx.

Single campaign doesn't demand to cover all possible levels. Equally a matter of fact, more focused progression of BG1&2 I think worked better so unmarried games spanning from zero to hero (Icewind Dales, PoE1&2, Kingmaker)

Yeah you can go to level 20 in 5e just they may keep it effectually level 10 in anticipation of a sequel. Baldurs gate four

More like: implementing that high corporeality of skills and spells in such loftier fidelity is too much for one game. Setting up for sequel is very un-Larian like: one of their strong points is not even setting upward for DLCs making their game whole from the very start.

Completely agree.
Icewind dales were gainsay oriented games though and so it made sense... kinda laugh

Aye y'all tin can go to level 20 in 5e but they may keep it effectually level 10 in anticipation of a sequel. Baldurs gate 4

If nosotros're already looking that far into the futurity, I'thou thinking DLC's could practice a better job.

If we're already looking that far into the future, I'grand thinking DLC's could do a better chore.

The outcome is largely rhetorical; BG2 could maybe more rightfully have been called a DLC (this was before the internet made DLCs prevalent) every bit opposed to a full game/sequel.

Larian typically makes smaller free DLCs. On top of that they released free downloadable content in the course of improved versions of both D:OS1 & 2 about a year after full release. This is a policy that makes Larian pro-consumer unlike much of an manufacture where contemptuous practices take become the standard.

I would almost be SHOCKED if nosotros didn't see a sequel within a twelvemonth or two of BG3 release, whatever term they use on it.

Well, I promise.
The idea of waiting 5+ years to attain level 20 seems kinda dreadful.

Haha. Agreed! Simply I have no fear of Larian becoming similar some George "author's cake" Martin failing to follow-up on his book-serial. Waiting for significantly more than than a year to release a sequel would lend an unfortunate disjointed experience to the game - and I'm sure they are not bad to avoid that. smile

grin in what world? Information technology doesn't crave BG1 to be played, it improves the engine and systems, provides far more content so BG1, has it'southward ain self independent story (fifty-fifty if it direct sequel it doesn't crave BG1 to exist played and be enjoyed. As a affair of fact I always recommed to commencement with BG2) - overall it's more of and amend then BG1.

I surely hope we stop upwards at level 20, or that at least the mechanics arrive fifty-fifty if the campaign doesn't go at that place, yet. Even more so since they will release the modding tools, hopefully they release the scenario editor as well and nosotros'd be able to become all the way to twenty, just like some NWN modules allowed to become to xl.

You mean they volition spend time and resources implimenting spells and adding animations, mechanics and soundeffects for features they won't apply, nor charge you for? Sure.....

This. Like where did that annotate even come from? BG1 had its own expansion that you could argue would now be called DLC; but the just reasonable case you could fence for maxim BG2 is not its own title is that it added the amazing feature to port your BG1 characters into the sequel and continue roleplaying. Information technology's similar calling John Wick 2 an Extended Directors Cut Bonus Characteristic of John Wick.

It's non even similar BG1 wasn't a massive game in terms of world and game length, they just paced information technology like a DnD game where in that time you lot could reasonably look to get a third assault and level 3 spells. Of course that was 25 years ago when society wasn't so impatient to have everything Right THIS 2d Because I Want IT.

To the OP, at least ten, probably 12. That gives them room to maneuver to make up one's mind if they want level cap from expansions or a sequel.

grin in what globe? It doesn't require BG1 to be played, it improves the engine and systems, provides far more than content then BG1, has it'southward own self contained story (even if it directly sequel information technology doesn't require BG1 to be played and be enjoyed.

More rhetoric. How quaint.

Albeit the games could be played independently, the "engine and systems" remained nearly unchanged (slightly refined) contrary to your pretence of pregnant change to lend acceptance to your sentiment. I'm not a native English-speaker, but my understanding of a self-contained story is something COMPLETE and SEPARATE with its ain ENDING. BG1'due south story was clearly subordinated to the overriding story arc of the series albeit having dissimilar stories tied to different villains.

You seem to have forgotten BG2 was comprised of two games; Shadows of Amn, and Throne of Bhaal. Both titles could be played completely and enjoyed as standalone games. The infinity engine and the organisation inverse rather more than for the latter than it had between BG1 (Tales of the Sword Coast) and BG2: Shadows of Amn. The story of Throne of Bhaal was every bit much "self-contained" from Shadows of Amn as that title was from BG1. It is just the conclusion to the saga, the ongoing story.

Using your selective logic, your criteria for what constitutes a full game/independent title equally opposed to an expansion/DLC, and so Bioware was wrong in not naming Throne of Bhaal BG3.

The upshot is largely rhetorical; BG2 could maybe more rightfully take been chosen a DLC (this was before the cyberspace fabricated DLCs prevalent) equally opposed to a full game/sequel.

Egg-celent! Moar better rhetoric! Let's pile on the digital static noise! It's not like this was some coincidental remark, but rather *must* be treated as an affront to the holy grail of RPGs! How very dare you!?

Oh, I didn't argue BG2 wasn't its ain championship, I casually mentioned that it could have been chosen an expansion rather than a standalone title. There isn't necessarily some gargantuan difference prepare in stone y'know?

That is not correct. While both games run on infinity engine, BG2 i is significantly updated both in terms of visuals and gameplay. This is less pronanunced now, as EE editions employ BG2 engine for everything and even before players used Tutu mod to play BG1 content in BG2 engine. Mechanics and classes were far more limited, no dualweilding was supported, no subclasses were present. I am sure there are more than things I am missing, but information technology's been a long time since I played vanilla, unmodded BG1. Merely there is a reason why I never managed to go BG1 vanilla to run properly on modernistic systems, while having no issues with BG2. Oh, no highlight feature was available in BG1 (therefore the existance of hidden powerful items in pocket-size spaces aroud the maps) though if I recall well, that feature was added to BG2 with ToB expantion.

I'm non a native English language-speaker, only my understanding of a self-contained story is something Complete and SEPARATE with its own ENDING. BG1'southward story was clearly subordinated to the overriding story arc of the series albeit having dissimilar stories tied to different villains.

Nosotros might argue here about deifinition, but I don't recollect cocky contained story means that no threads a left to be continued. BG1 is near conflict with Sarevok and your character's arc is complete after BG1, and BG2 introduces new disharmonize and villain. Same with Throne of Bhaal. All three are seperate and independent adventures. Throne of Bhaal less so, as it's main focus is tying up the overarching story rather telling a story of its own.

You seem to have forgotten BG2 was comprised of ii games; Shadows of Amn, and Throne of Bhaal. Both titles could exist played completely and enjoyed every bit standalone games. The infinity engine and the system changed rather more for the latter than it had between BG1 (Tales of the Sword Declension) and BG2: Shadows of Amn. The story of Throne of Bhaal was equally much "cocky-contained" from Shadows of Amn every bit that title was from BG1. It is only the determination to the saga, the ongoing story.

Using your selective logic, your criteria for what constitutes a full game/independent title as opposed to an expansion/DLC, and then Bioware was incorrect in not naming Throne of Bhaal BG3.

Throne of Bhaal should take been BG3 - it was far too rushed to be succesful in properly wrapping up the story. Just it was an expansion, it was far smaller in size, calculation just a few new systems, and requred BG2 to be played, as it is just new content added to the same game. There was a pretty significant overhaul engine overhaul between BG1 & BG2, even if basics where the aforementioned. Same as Diablo1 vs Diablo2. ToB is just additional entrada running the the same engine, systems and tools. It expanded content of base game.

Using your selective logic, your criteria for what constitutes a total game/independent title as opposed to an expansion/DLC, then Bioware was wrong in not naming Throne of Bhaal BG3.

No... Total games are total games, expansions are expansion and DLCs are DLCs. They produced and released Throne of Bhaal as an expantion to BG2, so that'southward what I phone call it. They designed BG2 as a full sequel, with introduction to newcomers, and it'due south own plot, villain and graphic symbol arc. I am not certain, if narrative continuation has whatever weight. Past your logic, Pillars of Eternity2 is an expansion to Pillars of Eternity2, while White March is a sequel?

Uh to the chief topic, even though they didn't envision BG3 as this, I would like to see information technology exist a ane-xx Chance, or ending somewhere around 1-14 or 1-17. This would allow full character progressions and permit for over the top or big combats nigh the end. It would also enable a big variety of magic items that tin can be powerful, and multiclassing would feel somewhat rewarding if you choose to do it as you have levels to piece of work with your concept.

I hold. The more levels the better.

A level ten cap would be disappointing.

At that place seems to be lot of confusion. What take a chance do I believe it will be level twenty at full release appointment? Less then 1% for sure!

Originally they said level x as maximum level and I would be fine with that practise not like high level characters. This is only reason I liked BG1 more so BG2.

Max level at original BG1 (before expansion) was level vii.
Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast (BG 1 expansion) and the more than modernistic version Baldur'due south Gate: Enhanced Edition
Had a bit college max level depends on what course, only roughly max level 10 which is fine in my book.

Now they accept hinted max level could be slightly college Perhaps so I would not exist surprised if max level is between 10-14 at release.

Well have Larian studios failed the states if max level is ten at full release as consumers? No the simply minimum max level I see as promised is like level 10 and if they go slightly above it example to max level 12 or 14 that is fine for me.

That'southward fine to want; who doesn't want to take an RPG to its highest levels? The question is would you rather have a game in 18 months and an expansion a year or 2 later, or merely expect another 3-four years whilst they develop tools for and balance dozens of new feats, new spells, weapons, armour, and then iron out the hundreds of bugs and unintended interactions that all brings?

Not to mention the fact that college level spells are generally several orders of magnitude more intricate in how they affect the game environment than, say, Firebolt. And we will want new snd intetesting maps and locations to proceeds those levels in. And an expanded story arc. We demand to have realistic expectations of what is possible.

Failure to exercise so tends to get one of 2 ways; either a game is rushed to launch and experiences the kind of car crash garbage fire launch Cyberpunk did; or it spends forever in development, gets labelled every bit vapourware and anyone who preordered or bought early on access starts thinking well-nigh refunds, like Star Denizen.
