Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Please Larian, it's a D&D game not a DoS game.

It is obvious that a lot of D&D players were expecting something different, based on how BG3 was advertised. I am not a hardcore D&D player, but even I was disappointed with the seemingly unjustified deviations from D&D that did not improve my experience, at all.

Larian deserves the backlash that has received for marketing this as a D&D 5E game and then never fully implementing the easily translatable aspects of D&D 5E. The game is now somewhat more in-line with 5E since the start of EA, but it is still has a lot of unnecessary deviations.
