At this point, I see no reason to believe it'll be any different from DOS2 - well, what I'm assuming anyway since I've never played DOS2.

I have come to see BG3 like Star Trek Into Darkness while the original BG games are like the old Wrath of Khan movie.

BG3 is flashy and fast paced and exciting. My kids and I watched the climax of Wrath of Khan a while back and they said, "Wait. THIS is the climax?"

Wrath of Khan was about Star Trek exploration and universe development - about the story. Into Darkness was about explosions and intensity and thrill.

I think Larian is more focused on the Into Darkness approach. Less on Wrath of Khan because today's generation thinks Wrath of Khan is boring. And frankly... I probably wouldn't be out here if I didn't agree. I don't have a lot of time to play a game and sit and learn history and politics and world building in a video game world. It's sad and unfortunate, because that makes for a very surfacy game world with little substance, but it seems to be the direction a lot are going.
