At best its boring at worst it's absolutely tedious and most of the time it just tedious. Just think of the goblin fight that took like 30min and all you did is wait for 5min to press "attack" once. No depth no variation just annoying as hell
And the story is also not great really
So it's a pretty big downgrade from the dos games

D&D is not for everyone. Fortunately you can always go back to DOS and if you wait a few years, I am sure you will have a shiny new iteration of DOS to play. BG3 is a game that is at least notionally built off of 5E mechanics and its story takes place in the Forgotten Realms. I happen to like it a great deal and the things I would like improved are the reduction of the over exaggerated arcade mechanics that we inherited from DOS, but I enjoy it in spite of these petty annoyances. You are of course entitled to your opinion, but you should understand that many of us are happy that they didn’t make BG3 a DOS clone.
