Baldur's Gate 3 is the kind of visionary experience that only comes around once in a decade, and will undoubtedly shape the future of games for years to come.
I think bg3 is also a lot easier to get into than dos 1 and 2. Having actual cut scenes and voice acting for everything goes a long way in making the game immersive. I also feel its easier to get into the combat (though that may just be me having got used to dos beforehand)
I’m really looking forward to playing it (I’ve promised myself to fully beat TotK before I pick it up). I played a ton of BG 1 and 2 when I was a kid and even for me they are hard to pick back up now. A slightly more accessible version of that sounds amazing.
What’s DOS2?
Divinity original sin 2 id assume. Great game as well by Larian.
Interesting that it didn’t gain similar notoriety then.
I think the Baldurs Gate name/brand carries a ton of weight still. Lots of people are nostalgic for it because it was a formative game of the 90s.

IMO it didn’t have an engaging start. The joke/parody concept also scratches s different itch.
