Baldur’s Gate 3 really leans into the fact that it’s based on Dungeons & Dragons by having a lot of the lore from the popular TTRPG represented in the game, including the massive pantheon of gods. There are a LOT of gods in Dungeons & Dragons, and Baldur’s Gate 3 shows that off by featuring several of them in the main story of the game, but even then, there are still some that aren’t explained too well.
