General consensus I've heard is it's nothing like BG1/2. Less atmospheric, less writing overall:

> Baldur's Gate 3 tells its story differently too. Those atmospheric chapter introductions, where the narrator sets the scene, are sadly gone. Dialogue is short and to the point, with no great walls of descriptive text drawing you into the world. And honestly, that's something I miss. I love the sheer wordiness of the old games, and how a flurry of prose would bring those pre-rendered backgrounds to life.

There is a ton of lore to discover and a huge amount of fully voiced out interactions.
