Well, it's still a game set in the Forgotten Realms... but it's clearly not Baldur's Gate, and it seems like Larian didn't quite understand how to write many of the old characters. They ruined Sarah. They ruined Vikone. They almost ruined Edwin, but they realized it in time, changed his name, and pretended it wasn't their attempt to create a new Edwin. A number of plot points directly contradict what was established in the old games. And on top of that, there are all sorts of weird characters like Bodhi the smoker, in the form of Orin. They would have been better off developing their own franchise based on the setting, rather than trying to pretend this is a sequel.
Gale is also quite amusing, even if he's a bit of a Mary Sue. However, the same can be said for Shadowheart. But Karlach is awesome, yes. I romanced her with my character.
