The plot is a bunch more engaging, to me at least. Divinity always felt you were playing everything for laughs.

D&D is a crap system though, which drags BG3 down (but hey, I've made my peace with D&D's vancian magic at this point in my life).

Did you play DOS:2? I get that sentiment for DOS:1, but 2 took things more seriously.

Yeah, almost all of it (level 14 or so). I felt the tone was super light-hearted, which was fine but I was concerned that BG3 might be similar. Fortunately, it's not it has a more appropriate tone.

To be fair though, we had our second child in September, so I'm just at the end of Act One (hoping to get some time to finish it over Christmas).
