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.
What nonsense. This is not World of Warcraft. Well and yes I played WOW over 3 years back in the day a long time ago. Quit when the silly theme Panda expansion was released. There is not constant level progression in WOW, but there is constant power progression since they constantly add more powerful equipment such as for example armor, weapons etc. I did not start WOW from the super early days but during my slow levelup Wrath of Lichking was released the most popular WOW expansion and I got to experience Wrath of Lichking when it raids was the most newest PvE raid content. Voluntary PvP battlegrounds was also nice. During that time at peak of Wrath of Lichking there was more then 12 million active WOW subscriptions that paid monthly fee that was the top of WOW glory days.

I already noticed in BG3 ALPHA Early Access that I hit level 4 way to fast for my taste.

Max level between 10-13 at full release is fine and I would be perfectly happy if they cut it to level 10 as was actually in the beginning said.
