Is not really a trilogy, was BG1 and BG2.

BG3 is the new one from Larian, while it plays nice as a game, it is not BG3 and it also points out a huge problem with DnD5'th edition. You have this 3-4 level chars going in to the underdark, fighting minotaurs, hook horrors, a beholder, a drow party, a spider queen type boss, you also fight a hag, ogre magi and other shit I probably forgotten. All this in this small area. Not to mention it feels stupid and forced, you go to the goblin camp willy-nilly all friendly like while this goblins are suppose to be in a war mod, hunting druids? You have a good mind flayer? This all reeks of DnD5'th edition and their attempt to sanitize the game so that every race can be good or what such nonsense. It ends up being forced and cheapens the story. 

You also expect humans to be the major race in Faerun, yet less then half of the characters are human.

It just does not feel like BG to me. In BG2 you had the main character being tempted with the power of Bhall, and one of the things you are tempted with is the ability to kill things like mind flayer, demons and other stuff like that. You are not suppose to kill everything at level 3.

Sorry for the rant, I like playing BG3 and at the same time I hate how not like BG it feels.

True but I consider ToB to be part 3 even though comparatively it's shorter than 1 and 2 and it has shared content with 2 since you can run Watchers Keep in both [which I often would for the first few floors in BG2 since things like the infinite ammo fire xbow could be bought at the entrance and some other extremely handy items were nearer the top].

Plus story wise the 3 were generally separated that way. 1 is dealing with Sarevok, 2 is Irenicus, 3 are the other Bhaalspawn.

You have a good mind flayer

Fucking wot. They literally exist by complete host parasitism and feed exclusively on the brains of sentients... 🙄

He explains that he eats only the brain of bad guys. It just feels forced but I doubt kids will notice at all.

infinite ammo fire xbow

Firetooth, when you want a +4 xbow that never requires ammo for the majority of BG2 because a +4 weapon in general is OP for BG2 but also who can be bothered to reload? Never matters you can't upgrade it until ToB because it will still serve as an excellent weapon for some of the more squishy characters /cough Imoen ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

Throne of Bhaal was supposed to be the third installment of the trilogy, but budget and time constraints kinda forced them to squeeze it all into an expansion instead. So yeah, it is a trilogy.
