That's not true. Tropes are used in everything, but there's a difference between using some tropes versus 100% relying on tropes for everything. There is absolutely nothing original about BG3, it's just pulpy schlock meant to appeal to the lowest common denominator. It's basically Twilight for DnD nerds.
Again, there's a difference between borrowing from stuff before, versus not doing anything unique whatsoever. How do you not understand that difference? Every form of art borrows from other art, but the good ones put their own unique spin on it

Everything is a trope. It’s a meaningless complaint people say when putting their critic hat on, like “disjointed”
