1. The game feels like DnD. I have no idea what some of you are talking about. Every time a character casts magic missile, I think to myself, this sure does feel like DnD.
The D20 is being rolled right in front of my face. Feels like DnD. There are Mind Flayers and character classes and races straight out of Dungeons and Dragons. Yep, feels like DnD.
Doesn't feel like 2nd edition DnD. Because it's not.

2. I feel like some of the arguments boil down to: it's too exciting!
I prefer my excitement to come at later levels, thank you very much. Bah humbug.
1. Nobody is asking for 2nd Edition, don't be facetious. Sure, it feels like D&D; a Larian rendition of D&D liberally smothered with their idiosyncratic, 'hilarious' style and Superhero companions. It bears little resemblance to a BG game, which is the point many people are making. It is a marked departure from the original games.
2. That's your own perception of the feedback provided and is absolutely not the intention. There is little palpable sense of achievement when you level up constantly and are inundated in magical (and non magical) loot from the very beginning. In essence, it gets boring very quickly and starts to feel like a MMORPG.
People aren't piling on hate, they're giving valid feedback...consider that perhaps it is because they care?
