I think my biggest hope is that the game plays more "open world" then the way the DOS games are separated into "Acts" where you can only traverse the lands for the specific act you are in. Anyone have any idea?
The lack of open world feel is my biggest problem with DOS 1 & 2. I hope when exploring the forgotten realms in BG3 you can freely explore all the lands from the beginning. I know it's easier to balance encounters with it separated into "Acts" but I hope they go a different route here.
I LOVE Divine Divinity (Even though I hate the real time clicky combat) and I didn't love DOS 1 or 2 (I thought they were ok).
