The OP did not say "compete" but rather "compare." And comparing the two games is absolutely appropriate and justified. If a smaller and less wealthy studio like Owlcat can provide all of that richness and diversity of options in their game, a Larian game that does not do the same will inevitably be evaluated as being inferior.
And in fact, if I may offer my theory, I think the reason we're not hearing anything about the details of BG3 is precisely because games like Realms Beyond, Solasta, and now P:WotR are doing so incredibly much on both the content side and the gameplay side that Swen knows he needs to deliver even more than any of those games or else his game will surely get panned on the basis of poor comparisons with those other games. I bet BG3 is constantly getting changed to keep up with those other much lower budget games doing so much, and this is why discussing/showing BG3 gameplay keeps getting delayed.
