DND isn't for casual imo, when I first started playing DND pen&paper on 2.0, you had to invest quite some time undestanding the rules and your character progression to really make a great character.

This game first, doesnt explain shit about the future of your class or prestige class, therefore you are completely blind in regards to the development.

Like I said in another post, Why can't I make a fighter focused on archery, with feats every level, like many shots, etc.. why feats are soo trivial now and doesnt bring real content to your character.

I could easily plan a character for NWN2 over a week long, thinking should I get my 3 pal lvl now or later etc.. https://nwn2db.com/

I'm a min maxer and loved what 3.5 had to offer in term of complexity.

BG3 has no dept or it doesnt explain it properly.




I think BG3 is not the issue here, I think it is d&d 5e in general for you. You want something that 5e generally does not offer.
You can of course do it if you play the game at the table, you can home brew stuff. But 5e is generally built for newer players and streamlines a lot. Something I personally like. It's easy to add things to the system if you want it to be more complicated.

Does this mean BG3 is going to have less customization options? I don't think so it's still in EA. Not even all the base classes and races are in it. There are also still specializations missing. I am sure they are going to add those. There probably also going to be mods and stuff if the DOS games are anything to go by.

If you want complexity your not going to like the 5e system in general.
