So what you're saying is, for all the "it doesn't feel like the FR, there's an awful lot of FR here"?
I used examples from the Game about how things from FR that are implemented(Tadpoles, Nautiloids, Illithid, Ullitharid, Mystra etc) where not implemented correctly or how they are represented in FR. This means that they are FR intellectual property missing source material or lore and in most cases having their source material or lore altered without explanation to fit a plot point that also had to have the source material or lore altered in order for it to be even remotely believable or even possible in universe. I'm not sure how you misconstrued this but then again I have seen you endorsing save scumming in another thread so I'm not surprised.
Because that's what I came away with.
That is a you problem and I am not here to teach people reading comprehension.
I guess I can take your route, and tear this whole notion of "Not feeling like the FR" apart at the seams? I mean, the first poster that quoted me left out the whole plotline of BG being all about how Sarevok was trying to "be the Highlander". That's what drives the entire story, he was wiping out Bhaalspawn everywhere he could find them, so that he could be the only one.
Confirmed for not playing the game.
I guess I have to take that into consideration, the lack of the ability to comprehend narrative, when I read a "review", something we all should do. My point about stopping at Nashkell, or the Friendly Arm is that I'd be taking the beginning of a game out of context from the rest, and making my conclusions based on that. I'm supposed to believe that someone has this magical, mystical comprehension of what it means to "feel like the FR" when they can't even pick up on simple subtext? I don't. What I read was a rage post about how "you're not allowed to call my views into question".
I gave you several examples of things that cannot be changed by full release without Larian rewriting the main story arc from scratch that deviate from FRCS/D&D lore and detract from the feel/aesthetic. Your point has already been invalidated.
There are a lot of things "missing" from this game. Once again, some subtext(ish) type stuff: A lot of the game is missing. Hey, check it out, that clearly defines the subtext in what I said about a BG review, what a coincidence. Except it's really not. In fact, it was my whole point. How am I supposed to sit here and believe that it's my problem that I don't see your point, when something as simple as "We only have Act I, and it's in what amounts to an Alpha stage" flies right over your head? Sorry, that's not going to happen. Wait, no, I'm not sorry, that's just not going to happen. I'll do a "deep dive" into how much it's "The FR" when I've played the whole game, instead of Act I, with no context to what's driving the different factions, other than some surface level "we're here, and we're working against you/trying to capture you". You know, like writing a review about BG, but only playing to the Friendly Arm Inn?
Again, you are quick to throw shade about comprehension but did you even read what I wrote? It's not just about stuff missing, it's about how lore and source material has actively been changed to facilitate their narrative and story. This only needs to happen because of the specific choice they made and there are many ways that they could have used source material and lore to explain this without having to alter it or ignore it not to mention that THEY CHOSE A VERY BAD STARTING POINTS FOR NO REASON THAT REQUIRES THEM TO ALTER THE SOURCE MATERIAL.
Please explain to me how full release will fix any of those issues I pointed out to you before. Please explain to me how Gale can be in love with mystra but not know who the chosen of mystra are or why he is okay travelling with a Sharite so close after the spell plague. Please explain to me how full release will change this? I am going to assume you have no idea what I mean by the spellplague of why someone that loves mystra would hate the sharites so please read this :
