I think it’s a mistake to ride the coattails of Baldur’s Gate 3.
Don’t get me wrong, I think more Forgotten Realms stories could make for good TV. The Honor Among Thieves movie from a few years ago was fantastic, and there was supposed to be a live action TV series in the works after that.
But I just don’t see why they’d give up on making one D&D TV series, only to start a brand new one with more baggage. Instead of telling an original story, they’re tied down to a story continuity that is inevitably going to leave a lot of fans disappointed regardless of the direction they take.
They think they can pull the RPG crowd to TV if they promise more time with their characters…but it also adds a mandatory cannon, so I’m pretty sure it’ll have the opposite effect
