Again, stop conflating Lore and Mechanics. The mechanics may currently come up short of the 5e detail desired, but the Lore is unmistakably Baldur's Gate, Sword Coast flavoring.
The question was "What about you guys, do you feel you're in the forgotten realms?".
As I said, when you play the game you experience everything - lore / mechanics / visual / (side) stories / ... - at the same time. Everything is a part of the world in which you're playing.
