No one is saying the new game is bad or shouldn't be made, but it is not "BG3" in spirit, it is only BG3 in name.
I don't really think the distinction is important unless you're a raging fanboy and raging fanboys can rarely be pleased, so since Larian just can't win you guys over it's only logical they shouldn't even try. I did like that story about childhood shower time, it was a pretty spot on allegory to you guys, hah.
Ok so if distinction is not important. Why don't they call it "Baldur's Gate : ..." ?
Raging fanboys as you call them (us) wouldn't rage if it was not BG"3".
But the only thing you're going to answer is "D&D rules + Forgotten Realms" again... While we explains why it is not a "3" according to us.
Everyone could be happy with Larian doing a new D&D game but the "3" is not important for lots of you.
That's the only reasons players are talking about "it's more.DoS than BG", "it's not enough BG" and.discuss about nearly everything.
With another name players finding this game looks cool would just talk about it.
You.don't have to understand why lots of fans are unhappy, you just have to admit it...
