I think Killerrabbit hit the nail on the head. The main story of BG3 is deeply flawed to the point of worthlessness. BG3 isn't a good story, it's a game with good stories in it. The story to me always felt like it didn't really care about my Tav. I have a hard time putting words to the phenomenon but it's like...Tav never really feels like a driving force in the game. It's all stuff just happening to us. I remember Swen talking about how we start as just a common adventurer but by the end we grow to become a hero and honestly... I don't feel that. It doesn't feel like our character grows or changes. It feels like we start off in a pretty static place and by the time we reach the city, we're not really changed. We're higher level, but that doesn't equate to any internal character development. I don't feel as though there's any arc there. I would compare that to the first Pillars of Eternity game. That game feels like our character actually goes through some kind of arc. Starting out ignorant and just a pilgrim, and learning more about the world and its true nature, learning more about ourselves and our past life and the nature of divinity itself. There's nothing like that in BG3.
