Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Sensational game. Just... not Baldur's Gate at all.

It’s called artistic license.

I think this is the case and I eventually accepted it. As in, I accepted BG3 is a FR adventure in which you extend an arm and happen to bump into a Chosen of a deity and where previous BG heroes are just late cameos.

But that in a modern game with unprecedented depiction of many things D&D. First meeting with a band of gnolls? Brilliant. Githyanki vs. Mind Flayers? Sold! Also, unprecedented agency for players, let’s not forget where the focus has always been in development.

For reference, I avert my eyes when I see Dragonborns in FR. First thing first, this should have been an adventure set in the PAST.
