Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - General Confusion about Acts and Scope

So Baldur's Gate is going to be the final Act?

I'm not sure how to take that, honestly. I much preferred how well-traveled we were in the original 2 games. I was hoping for something like that. I hope BG acts as a hub of sorts and we can explore around the city from it-see the Woods of Sharp Teeth or Durlag's tower etc.
