With the release of Baldur's Gate 3, many gamers are wondering if they need to play the first two games before diving into the third. Here's a breakdown of the plot of the previous 2 games.

Also I'll add here that not every single fight in these games needs to be a masterpiece of strategy. RTWP allows you to blow through boring grindy combat that doesn't require strategy if you're over leveling an area or something. I'll be doing quests and finding loot while you're stuck grinding the same turn based combat over and over again.
