And now, just to ballance things out ... a sceptical prognosis:
Baldur's Gate III. will come out and it will be awesome ... Big studios will not give a shit and will keep releasing things, just as they allways did ... And people will buy those things, just as they allways did ...
So nothing really change. Only from time to time, someone on some long forgotten forum, in a decade or two ... will mention that once uppon a time, it was possible to make things differently.
I still dont understand why cant we change Race for our hirelings. Lets us play Githyanki as racist as they trully are!
