I don't know anything about this game or it's predecessors. Is it just a fantasy RPG or what's the hype all about? How is it different from other fantasy RPGs?

I also rarely pay full price (maybe 4 times since and including Portal 2), but the developer's previous game Divinity: Original Sin 2 has given me about 120 hours of play time with a friend, plus 70 more solo. There's every indication BG3 is bigger and more diverse, so I expect it to cost AT MOST 50 cents per hour, probably a fair bit less.
