Nah, you are abducted from Baldur’s Gate, the Nautiloid is attacked over the city of Baldur’s Gate, and then is immediately flees, ending up in the Hells. Very little time passes;
Actually ...
It was never said where you were abducted, and your source of origin depends on your race, while "Baldur's Gate" is just default for those, who dont have anything else ... Githyanki have "plannar" origin tag and was most likely never in city of Baldur's Gate before ... aswell as Drow, Deep Gnomes and maybe Duergars, if they become playable (but i honestly see no reason for them not to be) who have "underdark" origin tag, ans was also most likely never in the city before.
Second, the city that was in original trailer is Yartar ... you can tell by heraldic that is on their uniforms, aswell as all those flags, aswell as by the fact that Baldur's Gate is build by the sea, this one had a river running trough it look:

And about how much time passed since our abduction ... again, that is something we (and most likely even our characters) dont know.
