Larian's played fast and loose with the setting in a few ways in EA, but above all others this one bugs me the most.
Yeah for me also, I think at the end of the day the thing about BG3 that generates all this anger in me is that the lore of the FR setting is not just being ignored but being treated contemptuously. It is so very obvious to me that the dev team of BG3 doesn't give a damn about the FR setting, and that they see it as actually an obstacle to their making the game they want to make, even though they chose to petition WotC to make this specific game, a game that by rights ought to be ALL about the FR setting. And since the only thing about BG3 that interests me greatly *is* the FR setting of the game, I of course am reacting rather negatively to it.
