To Larian's credit, they've done an admirable job of balancing the wishes of disparate (able-bodied) audiences. And there's no denying their games have a charm that makes players passionate in the first place. I don't begrudge any segment of gamers for providing feedback or Larian for taking it into account.

To me, it's worthwhile to ask where the genius is in BG3's design. Is the game's success driven by artistic vision? gameplay? something else?

I feel it's driven by a strong ability to give most players most of what they want. For example, Larian probably wouldn't have announced new legendary actions for honor mode had the point not been raised by the community. Fine. But then why did Larian feel honor mode was good enough when it was released? If they're actively counting on player dissatisfaction to create their games... That's not great, right?
