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.
This is nothing new man. The FR wiki and SCAG conflict on so much, nevermind other source material like Descent to Avernus.
Like, I'm putting together an Eltural based adventure and lore conflicts abound. I have to make judgment calls about what truth I'm going to implement for our game.
It's hard to follow canon where previous authors have diverged or mistyped and the next author before you has carried the mistake. Heck, I read the whole Companion sun over Elturel thing was one author simply muddling names.
And WoTC loves swapping things around when they shift editions to explains the new rules at the lore level (instead of just handwaving them) and sometimes just change stuff to focus on specific thigns. The Forgotten Realm setting is basically a new setting every editions since the 2e to 3e move.
