Incorrect. Advertising does work.

BG3 is a hot mess of a game that gets a pass solely because of the strength of the first act and peoples love of D&D.

Most of the disability mechanics do not work properly, the story is a mess, especially when doing multiplayer, and the world doesn't recognize when major changes are made half the time, and most of the characters are fine, but mostly good if you really want to fuck them. The first act is a tour de force though. It's a interesting, if janky game, when it is working properly, but Divinity 2 is a better executed concept, with far more difficult and skilled combat.

However D2 is not as heavily advertised as D&D and not as critically acclaimed (see awards as advertising) as BG3.
