I am sorry for the misunderstanding. I played many of the Larian games, and in fact, I am a backer of DOS:2. It seems it's important for your context.
What I wanted to say is that it is not about RTWP vs TB, it's about you are having a brand and you have to respect it. As I think I stated several times, I have nothing against TB, but I do against tainting a powerful brand to turn it into something else.
Just, to skip the questions about what are the core pillars of Baldur's gate, something that I am not sure it belongs to this thread and if you are really interested, we can discuss it in the proper thread, just imagine that in 4 years, the public demands RTWP games due to a succesful hit somewhere else and Larian decides to make DOS:3 a RTWP game. How would you feel? Wouldn't you feel that they'd rather use a different license? Would you really accept that the core gameplay changed? I don't know since I am not you, but try to imagine and you will see the root of the message I am trying to convey.
Also a backer of the DOS games and not especially a fan of turn-based either, fwiw: my first Divinity game was Divinity 2 which was real-time third-person, which I preferred even if I did die rather a lot in its original incarnation. Anyway, TB is what we got and I like the games well enough other than that, so I guess it's not going to kill me to simply expect whatever I get from BG. Admittedly I haven't played the original but as with the Divinity series, things can evolve for all sorts of reasons (or sometimes they don't, which also annoys people) and I guess we can either rail against it or adapt and enjoy it.
