Larian's D&D epic introduces the moral and narrative ambiguity that's been missing from RPGs

The more I play of Baldur’s Gate 3, the more I realize how unsure I am of what I’ve done. This extraordinary, enormous game has me in deep, meticulously exploring its every tiny detail, getting involved in every aspect I can find, and the further I get, the less certain I am about every choice I’ve made. Which, it occurs to me, I’ve never experienced in any RPG of its like before. So why? What is it about Larian’s latest epic that makes it so hard to predict?

Obsidian had originally begun developing Avowed as a co-op RPG, even before Microsoft's acquisition of the studio. The studio later ditched this version to focus on single-player instead.
