I am a fully blind person and I occasionally record playing video games with my friends.

We will be playing and streaming Larian’s upcoming RPG, Baldur’s Gate 3 when it gets released, and I wanted to invite you all to join us. The setup includes me (fully blind) and my friend Vincent (fully sighted), who will be controlling the game, and giving descriptions of visuals. This should make it possible to follow both the story of BG3 as well as the more mechanical parts by listening only.

I thought this might be interesting to some of you. I myself played Baldur’s Gate 1 as a kid when I could still see, and I’m super excited to be able to experience it now roughly 20 years later and see where the saga is going.

We will go live when the steam version can be downloaded, which, as far as we know, is on August 3rd, 8 AM Pacific time (5PM for GMT+2).

The twitch channel can be found here:

Actual play might start a little later, as we will have to download and install the game first. It also remains to be seen how smooth the release goes, since BG3 is a highly anticipated game. So maybe we will just look at steam error reports together - who knows.

Videos of the streams will afterwards be posted to the youtube channel, probably after a brief delay for light editing.

Thanks, hope to see you there!
