Art style
This isn't so much a complaint than more of a personal hope that the art style doesn't go 'anime'... already with the likes of Astarian you can see this sort of anime style.
As someone who grew up with Neverwinter Nights, Baldur's Gate, EverQuest and the likes of - those styles of mediaeval fantasy art have always been associated with the genre.
Recently watched Vox Machina, it was OK but again it went anime... asiany style cartoon.
This bleeds into other styles such as the choice Pathfinder went with; the only thing that put me off at least the second game was the 'world of warcraft' style art which is ok for that universe but not DnD. Personally not a fan.

Anyhow! Hopefully Baldur's Gate 3 steers away from the anime stuff and remains true to the original art style. It sets the tone better.
Perhaps they won't as anime panders to the playdough heads/Asian wannabes of today's world and hence more money!

Leave that anime crap for the Modders.

Food for thought is all!

It's not rigid. It's called "having principle" there's plenty of for casual "RPG" made for casual mainstream audience.

But title like Baldur's Gate should not and will not bend just for the sake of wider audience.

Mr B Lessed you need to buy windows most of all. Your brain is obviously rotting by sitting in that putrid week old cup of noodles and farts smell of your room

Elden Ring is not an RPG. It's an ARPG at best.

But an RPG, it is not.
