Amazing intro cutscene, can REALLY tell that its made by the people behind the Divinity Original Sin games. It really does play more like a Divinity game than Baldurs Gate so far.
It does look a lot like a reskinned Div Original Sin 2. Identical movement system, same elemental mechanics etc, almost identical UI. I can foresee a lot of people complaining that its not Baldurs Gate its Divinity : Baldurs Sin.
However, that said.. D:OS2 was my game of the year when it came out, so I'm ok with playing in a Baldurs Gate world using the D:OS2 engine.
I loved Divinity 1 but it wasn't my game of the year, Divinity 2 however I really loved (felt more polished to me) and that one was my game of the year. I'm really looking forward to Baldurs Gate 3 after seeing that gameplay footage but to be fair I'm not really looking forward to it as a Baldurs Gate game, its more that I am looking forward to it as "Divinity 3". I think that the truth is that Baldurs Gate 3 will probably end up being a great game but not a great Baldurs Gate game, so it will largely depend upon if the playerbase can accept it as that. I guess a bit like how some people might say that Joker was a great film but not a great Batman film (as Joker would have been a great film about the same issues, even if it wasn't set in Gotham or had any connection whatsoever to the Batman universe)
