They why are you commenting on stuff like Shadowheart's alignments?
Why can't I? It's perfectly reasonable for me to comment on any aspect of the game I want. Sounds like you're looking to engage in gatekeeping.
Not really, when you haven't played the game you can't make informed comments on things like character morality.
So let me get this straight: If I don't pay Larian $60, I don't get to be critical of their game; if I want to be critical of their game I have to first pay them $60 for the privilege. So, whether someone likes the game or not, Larian gets their money. How very convenient for Larian.
I also think it's hard to be critical of a game without playing it, before it has even been released. The theoretical features are one aspect of a game, and to be frank, I don't agree with every decision. For instance, I don't like actions being confused with bonus actions, the shove, tons of items adding random skills, or the removal of ability score prerequisites. But the experience itself needn't be bad because it's not 100 % compliant. The rules are mostly there as a guide to have fun, not as a rigid law. Yes, I'd rather have something as close as the ruleset as possible, because otherwise it's confusing, but what counts in the end is enjoying the game.
I tried the EA when it had just been released, so when there were even more deviations from the ruleset, but the result was very enjoyable. The game brings more than a ruleset to the table, and that may be enough to make up for any deviation.
I'd encourage you to give it a try, just to make sure you are not missing out on something. If you quickly see it's not good for you, you can ask for a refund. On Steam, you must request it within 14 days and before 2 hours of play, which isn't enough to get a good impression, but on GOG, you must request it within 30 days and the time spent on the game isn't mentioned. If you bypass the Galaxy launcher, they won't know how much time you've played.
