I agree. While I dislike some of BG3's features (especially party control, or rather lack of it), the game does some things better than the original series. From the recent update that would be the druids. I think it's great that Larian devs don't focus only on combat abilitites, but also gave the animal shapes the ability to talk to animals. Something that was missing from BG1 and 2, which had not reactivity towards shapeshifting.
