After reflecting on the detailed analysis, I must admit that Baldur’s Gate III seems riddled with inconsistencies, especially concerning the Dead Three's timeline and the motivations of key figures like the Emperor and Elder Brain. My initial playthrough had me engrossed, but these revelations make the plot feel surprisingly incoherent. It's disheartening that, despite the rich lore of Baldur’s Gate, these narrative gaps exist. Hopefully, future updates or expansions will clarify some of these issues.
