This, I think, is the main mistake Larian makes in regards to the game's story. Only the original author truly understands the concept of his character, his behavior and reactions, another person will start to change the character, it is good if it will be a talented person who wants to preserve and add to the story, who does not seek to shove at any cost some of their own desires as to how events should develop. Even so, the original author must control the process and have the final say. Otherwise, as in the case of BG3, we have a mess of a high-class script and a third-rate novel. If a game is a AAA game, it should have not only graphics and gameplay of the appropriate level, but also a story.
