Look at all these degenerates congregating in this thread with their hate boner for my epic new game.

I will lead you back to the righteous path with BG3, the first good game in the series.

Now look a this babe and buy my game phaggots.

To answer the OP, it's because CP2077 ended up being widely hated, so being the contrarians that most codexers are, we decided to give that game a pass and hate on something merely mediocre.

god I hate the direction of pushing cinematics and production values above all else

As much as I hate to say it, it is still the AAA games/franchises that gamers get excited for and pushes the industry.
Theres no "AAA". It's a marketing term developed to sell shit to numbnuts like you. It's fucking cringe.

Imagine putting "AAA" stickers on musicians. Oh this one is AAA, and that one is "BBB". That's pure shit. You keep eating it.

It's not "AAA" that's pushes it's TALENT and fresh new ideas.

THIS "next gen RPG" does the same shit Dragon Age Origins did many years ago. Still it doesn't have features that older "previous gen RPGs" had like more ppl in a group, day/night cycle, open world, etc.

Upon hearing that Larian is developing, I haven't looked into the game. I don't know how they will implement 5E (which sucks dicks). I don't know how many barrels the barrel fetishists will put in. I don't know, and I don't care. Because I know it'll all be shit. Just like D:OS 2. Larian is decline incarnate.
That's why.

How porny of a game will BG3 be? How visual are these romance scenes? I assumed it faded to black and maybe fireworks? Upon certain games hitting steam/gog I'm doubting that anything that simple will happen. (Subverse might be a horrible example)

Larian specifically paid Johnny Sins to do mocap.

Swen has never had good judgement and the good parts of DoS1 and DoS2 were either flukes or the work of somebody else.
