What I hate most about those other post that goes "this isnt BG3, it's DOS" is that most of them start out with "I have played all RPGs since 1979, I know all conceivable rules so I know what RPGs are and how to make them fun!". Like.. cmon dude this game isn't made purely for Baldur's Gate players and they are not going to go back to deprecated rulesets or game design principles because some games used back then. Things evolve.

Larian want to create a modern take of a old-school RPG IP with modern graphics and modern, streamlined game design principles. Not so hard to understand to be honest. Understandably some die-hard BG fans are going to be annoyed or let down, but it's this or nothing (probably). WOTC could have gone to Obsidian since PoE seems to be more in-line with how old school BG worked (dont quote me on this, I have neither played BG1-2 or PoE), but they didn't because they saw the potential of how popular Larians recent games was compared to PoE. That's my guess anyway...
