I get the BG3 usage of narration due to the DnD setting and DMs narrating the story. Spoon feeding is not acceptable and is insulting to the player. I remember Deus Ex very well along with others like System Shock. The world they put you in can be confusing and unfamiliar at first glance and takes time to get involved in.
Unpopularopinion posting…. what do you normally like to play? I didnt enjoy BG3 either but I didnt care for the other Baldurs Gate games mostly because of the setting and characters.
