I fail to see why the game is titled BG3, instead of BG: .

BG series had concluded with ToB and an ending that was both satisfying and closed. There were no important loose ends worth pursuing afterwards. The game takes place in the same setting, same territory but that's about that.

I hope to see how it's going to be, where the story takes the protagonist, though.

    One reviewer that played through that and BG 1&2 said there is a lot of connections to the previous games. So it may be a sequel in every sense.

    Char name's saga is over. Well maybe... idk

    Carrying over a few story titbits makes it a sequel in every sense? Don't you expect a game's sequel to share gameplay characteristics? Baldur's Gate 3 has a completely different story along with completely different gameplay - in what sense is it a sequel.

    If Larian are now incapable of making a game that isn't original sin they should've refused to partner with wizards of the coats and put a "3" în the title, but neither of them seem to have any integrity.
