You obviously don't remember the "DoS3" thing but you know what ? If you say so, let's say you're right
My point is that the vast majority of people clearly like what they're seeing and experiencing. It's not even debatable.
First of all, how do you get "vast majority"? Vast majority of what? Vast majority of all gamers? HAHAHA. Dream on.
Then, you still keep (intentionally?) missing the point. I don't care how many people like/enjoy the game. That has nothing to do with the issue of the game NOT feeling like a Baldur's Gate game. All you are saying here is that a lot of people who don't care about the original Baldur's Gate games like this game. But those people (which may include you yourself) are completely irrelevant to this debate.
The game feels like a Baldur's Gate game.
Most people playing the game (the definition of majority) enjoy it. The people enjoying the game are buying the game. Their feedback matters also. They are not irrelevant.
Again. The game feels like a Baldur's Gate game. I've played the other BG games. I've played all the Forgotten Realms games. I've played through multiple DnD games that took place in other settings, including Greyhawk and Darksun. I have a long history of playing in these games.
