One needs to start with pointing out that comparing BG3 to God of War, even old one, is idiotic. One is small scale, high fidelity action game, another is sprawling RPG. .
Which is a point that was indeed made several times in the thread I linked.
But in the end rationalizing it and justifying it doesn't really change the core of what the first reaction was: the
game trailer failed to impress a certain audience.
