Not necessarily. If Larian is using the correct XP Calculator based on 5e rules and the XP charts then you can expect a massive slowdown in level gain by level 5-6.

If you want to see for yourself take a look here:

a standard 5e XP calculator

and this is the XP required to advance chart for 5e D&D

The first three levels in 5e are designed to be SUPER easy to get to - essentially the game really BEGINS at level 3.


If that's the case then it's gonna be a big problem for gamers. No gamer, except for few super tabletop nerds, will sit through a CRPG for hours maybe days without leveling up aka having character progress.
