If Larian is smart, they are planning to release BG3 around the time the movie comes out in March.

Agree completely. Don't understand at all any of the naysaying. The story, the characters, and the visuals all look great. It portrays D&D very well (the monsters, and combat, for example), and it especially looks to do a great job of properly representing Faerun. As a huge fan of the FR novels who has read almost all of the FR novels, it feels very much like having a good and fun FR novel coming to life in a movie. This movie is the *the* D&D thing I'm most looking forward to for 2023 (and possibly the D&D live-action TV show if that happens).
