Most likely? Nostalgia and familiarity. We'll probably never know if the decision to make it Baldur's Gate 3 was WotC/Hasbro's or Larian's.

There's precedent, though. Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance had less of a connection to Bioware's BG than this one does.

Sure, Dark Alliance has almost nothing to do with the BG CRPGs other than the setting. But it also wasn’t named as a direct sequel to them, either.

And I get the corporate reasons for it. But I think those reasons are stupid if the game actually has nothing to do with the games it’s supposed to be a direct sequel to.
