I know that a lot of people criticise BG3 for being too DOS-like, so I was surprised when I eventually picked up DOS2 after like 200 hours of BG3 early access that the two games play really differently.
They definitely do! I think BG3 has potential to be immensely enjoyable and I hope it will get there before the release - there are moments of brilliance shining through the EA already. There are also three issues (push/reactions/concentration too easily dispelled through guaranteed to hit items/surfaces) which IMO pull back the combat from reaching a next level.
There are also some choices (like blurring uniqueness of classes) which I dislike, but don’t have to necessary result in bad gameplay.
