Every major update saw that Larian is listening to the EA players. I just don't understand this fatalistic doomsday pessimism at this point. The surface effects were turned down, narration style changed, initiative system was altered, actions reconsidered. All due player feedback. And they talk about the originals all the time. But also they are making their own title. And bout this tired argument that "this is just a DOS clone because same engine". Look at how similar DOS2 looked to DOS in early development. BG3 is becoming more and more distinct with every patch, but the idea that Larian should start from scratch just seems ignorant about game development in general.

Story-wise, the Bhaalspawn story is over. Both Larian and WoC told us that. This is a new story where that story's aftereffects still linger. And u can already see that.

Cartoonish? Have u guys played any game set in the Forgotten Realm? It is a cartoonish setting...
