Aw… I was thinking a little more literally. A real-time, first person D&D game set in Forgotten Realms? Yes please. I know the rules couldn’t work and thus would need to be tweaked, but am I the only one who thinks that does sound fun?
I suppose Dungeons and Dragons Online kinda resembles that concept, if you squint. Honestly though that would be amazing, I reckon I’d appreciate Faerun done in the style of a far bigger Elder Scrolls game, simply because of how much I love that world. That said, there’s no way that’d be feasible with current tech whilst still maintaining the scope and depth of BG3, which is phenomenal.
Closest I can think of is the Dark Messiah of Might and Magic game from 2006, from Arkane (who later went on to make Dishonored and more recently Prey and Deathloop). First person, you pick your class between Fighter, Wizard, and Rogue, and most of the combat involves figuring out how to use traps, physic, and magic to kill your targets. Lots of ledges to kick monsters off of or spikes to knock monsters into, or creating ice on the floor as a wizard to make enemies slip to their deaths. Holds up pretty well for a 15+ year old game.
Uh… That actually sounds like it might be kinda cool. Are there actually games that have done that? I’d check 'em out if there are.
I feel like that refers to Fallout 4

Dark Messiah was fuckin cool man.
I love that game. Probably the best Source engine game to exist that isn’t made by Valve.
Closest you can get is probably Avowed, coming out soon, but it’s set in the Pillars of Eternity universe rather than DnD.
