Honestly DOS2's saving grace was its co-op. Not giving a damn about the story and making up your own along the way (me and my friend blasting the universe in a mad quest for power) was a great experience despite the lack or outright absence of a narrative. I of course hope that Larian does not take this approach with BGIII, but we have no idea what the hook of the story is beyond Act 1. The only thing we need is a stretch goal like a quest to beat other True Souls to becoming the Absolute's champion.

Then again, the end of the current intro already totally ruins this by doing over DOS2's intro, lol. Saved by God because you are great, go you.

I agree completely and think this aspects are where Larian strengths as game studio shines the most. I just don't think this is the most important aspects of the Baldur's Gate series

"74.85% of you stood with the Tieflings, and 25.15% of you sided with Minthara. Good outweighs evil, it seems."
