I don't mind the new art direction but it sounds like they've done away with most of the actual exploration elements and roleplaying in favor of handholding. Maybe they were just aiming for a younger audience or something?
I think Baulder's Gate 3 has really ruined a lot of new RPGs for me. ๐คท Thanks a lot Larian for making a game so good it fucked up an entire genre.
Breath of the wild did the same for me with open worlds.
For me it was Valheim, but BotW is a banger. They make it hard to enjoy games even when they're actually decent, like Enshrouded and Smalland. You can't help but feel it's been done better.
