Or at least an IWD sequel in spirit: A game in the same engine as BG3, taking place in Forgotten Realms, but with a more linear main story and you create your entire party. Not that I dont enjoy having companion stories but I do also enjoy a simple dungeon crawler RPG.

Solasta is of course a good but less shiny alternative. I'm probably going back there when I tire of BG3.

I will take this or Neverwinter Nights 3 with persistent server support.

This. But I'm afraid nobody will ever make a game like NWN again. "People hosting their own MMO-likes, and we dont get any money? No way!" Though Larian's engine has the tech needed. It isnt that a big leap for them to add a DM role, DM tools and increase player count.

Oh damn. That would be sick to use BG3 as replacement for Roll20 or the like.

I’d be shocked if wotc would allow that, they’re trying to make their own vtt

I didn’t know they were making their own. Agreed though, it would just be really really… reallyreally… really cool to use BG3 as a tabletop engine.
