As someone who has played BG1 and 2 and is now 21 hours in the game ... so far there are no references. But the story, the worldbuilding and the characters are sooo gloriously brilliant
So it's kind of standalone then? I might just have to pick it up! It sounds really cool, only based on Lemmy comments I have read
It’s very standalone. It’s based in the forgotten realms universe in terms of lore, so it has a ton of depth there. The actual story arc though seems totally unconnected to the previous ones at least ten hours or so in.
