I don't play D&D with people reduce every social interaction to "can i fuck it" and that's the energy that BG3 has. If your apex of intimacy is "sex" you've got a lot of maturing to do.
BG1/2 are art because their creators took an active approach to translating one medium to another, at PHD level investigations of translating the systems of D&D in to an interactive computer game. They broke boundaries, changed the way games were made, and stand the test of time in their affective narrative delivery, making them literal artistic classics.
BG3 does none of this. It's DOS2 with a Fearun skin. It pushes no boundaries except people's patience. The problem isn't with RTWP or Turn Based Combat, or homebrew rules or not ... the problem with BG3 is the shallowness of its expression. BG3 employs meme level representations of the characters and themes of the previous games, and for some reason, that's what Larian fans want, so that's what we're getting.
A bit extreme. There are five characters thus far that you can have sex with. SH is non sexual. So Lae'zel, Gale, Wyll, Astarion and Minthara. Hardly a "can you _##$ it" situation. Yes, the romance is abrupt and shallow, but it's hardly just a sex fest game with this sex scenes stuff being the highlight of the game.
