Indeed, and there are many cases where the player is expected to write the story for the writer - and the more this happens, the more the player's immersion is going to be hurt. I, along with fellow members of the community have built a complete timeline of the events of BG3. In a post that contains almost exclusively nothing but plot () you can point out insane continuity errors and plot holes at almost every point.

A friend of mine recently compared Sarevok to
Luke Skywalker from Star Wars.
The similarities in how poorly both those guys got their characters assassinated is astounding. Notice how I used the word "similarities" when two characters are being discussed who are polar opposites, even across universes.
Yes, thank you for that thread.

More people should understand that if you need to handwave/assume/headcanon something to make it make sense, then you are saying it is poorly written, full stop. A good story explains itself. I've graduated to just viewing BG3 as a modern day reboot of the franchise instead of a sequel, because yikes and oof. It managed to 'reimagine' the plot of BG1 and fill it with more holes than swiss cheese at the same time. Which is typical of modern reboots, really.
