have to admit, yeah I'd generally prefer things moved closer to D&D 5e and further from Divinity, and I do love Divinity. Right now it kind of feels like a game that is struggling with its identity and as a result is putting off D&D 5e fans AND DOS fans.
I agree, and it wasn't advertised as a DOS3, its BG3 and heavily advertised as using 5E rules. So for the divide of people asking for something like a DOS3 and those pleading for it to be actually 5E, Larian will have lied only to the 5E crowd if the game ends up as a DOS3 clone with a light frosting of D&D to it. They never promised DOS3, they have promised 5E in BG3, exhaustively, as a selling point.
