I like the game, its plain to see Larian is a skilled developer, but fucking hell the dnd influence is just poison. The setting? Mid outside of the Larian specific writing, wizards have always had uninteresting world building. The underlying the system? Fucking awful, 5e is easily the worst ttrpg i have ever played (out of 8 i think, including a completely homemade game and condensing very similar games). Those rolls you failed? That shit is called bounded accuracy and i have never seen a worse design choice, it's impossible to make a character that actually specializes in something. Every character must be able to succeed and fail and everything.
