Another big difference between BG3 and WotR is how the main character matter in the story.
In BG3 after 30 hours the main character has nothing special. He has no story, no background, nothing else to do or think about,... You're just playing the role of someone that has no role.
WotR introduce a very interresting story. Everyone has it's role in it. Every characters and companions are involved for a reason or another into this war and so is your main. From the beginning to the end every characters write its part of the stories / main quest / side quest.
The main character does not write a side quest but he's reacting a lot to others and he's writing the main story more... Choosing a mythic path with it's own game/role play makes him very interresting (the commander of the fifth crusade, is that not epic ?)
In BG3 the main character has no background and no story except the same than everyone else.
20+ hours is too late to introduce the main character's specific role in the story. Owlcat understand it and introduce it right at the beginning. Larian does not and as a result, Tav is mercenary in the story.
