I would argue that right now Owlcat is doing an incredible job with Pathfinder: Path of the righteous. Thats how BG3 should of been. Tons of interesting playable NPCs, 6 party members, huge dialogue trees, lots of classes/kits, good story, even in BEta the UI is fantastic. Turn base modes OR realtime with pause. Ecclesitheurges, Armigers, Hellnights, oracles, scroll savants, stigmatized witches, zen archers, spirit hunters, slayers, expionage experts, eldritch scoundrel etc etc...
And its Pathfinder! WAY more interesting than even D&D5th. Nothing much in the rules are watered down, you get the complete package. As someone mentioned, DnD has been sanitized beyond recognition. Just reading the description for half-orcs in both DnD and Pathfinder shows you who has the balls in this relationship.
DnD: Human tribes and Orcs form alliances, having marriages between the races, producing half-orcs. Pathfinder: Half-orcs are rarely the result of loving unions... Unlike 5e, pathfinder isn't really afraid of showing adult topics.
Broken companions. Broken companion stats. All male characters are weak, all female characters are strong (and I'm not just talking about personality right now, I'm about stats). It is literally unprofitable for you to take male companions to your party. Female characters ' stats are much better distributed.
At the same time, you can safely miss something, you will not talk to someone once, you will pass by, you will put it off for later and that's it! You can forget about it. That's what I hate about Pathfinder.
Meticulous lvl system. Not bad, but meticulous.
You can even upgrade your pets. For wut??? I have enough problems with me and my party, without proper knowledge, it is VERY EASY to spoil something. And ofc corruption system... Rly? I'm not saying that Pathfinder is super bad, but it's definitely not a game for everyone, I wouldn't put it as a good example. Have you played it? Or have you just watched a few positive reviews? New players who are unfamiliar with the genre will find it very difficult to play this game. I'm pretty sure they'll just drop it because of the complexity.
You also want "adult themes" when some BG3 players complain about being offered sex by Astarion.
I also understand that this is not a release, and I really hope that they will change characteristics male characters. Now almost all of them are useless.
