You are kinda asking a question that is impossible to answer and here is why:
Your feelings are mixed in with feelings of Nostalgia for a game that was an incredible adventure for the time. and made you feel a certain way not just because it was incredible, but because you were in the morning of your life and everything seemed possible then. Those feelings are of course valid but they are biased as well, and possibly misleading.
I also played Bg1 and 2 when it came out, and going back to it I just can't get through it because the systems are so old, inefficient and dated compared to modern games. If Larian recreated those system only a handful of old fogies would buy it.
In 20 years - if Larian is gone and not doing D&D anymore - another company will face the same scrutiny if they try to make BG4 - because a whole new generation of gamers are about to have their world rocked by this version of BG - and that have not played the originals and they will take that nostalgia into the future.
For the record, I fucking LOVE BG3. It doesn't feel like the old games, it feels WAY better. Like miles and miles improved.
