I had completely forgotten, but you are right. Initially the complaint was that everything was too silly, not serious enough. Wow how that pendulum swung.
Indeed.
I remember pointing out all of the silly gags and pop culture references in BG1 and 2 back in the day to show that the Larian whimsy was on brand for Baldur’s Gate. Now today I’m pointing out how the Dark Urge is just Bhaalspawn / Slayer 2.0. I’m shilling for Larian so hard, I’m gonna send them a bill. 😂
