Question about FOMO in Baldur's Gate 3 (self.baldurs_gate_3)

I haven't played any Baldur's Gate games before but I've heard so much about this game that I'm going to buy it.

However, before I start, I always wonder about this: some games allow you to unlock any weapon at some point in the game, and if you miss one in some quest you can always go back. If you accidentally sell one you can buy it back or forge a new one again, or have it respawn. If you want some other class you can switch later.

Other games are not like that, and if you screw up or aren't aware of [full in the blank] then you can't unlock something.

What's the story with BG3? Do I need to be careful and plan before going on missions?

I've always had a problem with these type of games where I don't want to miss story content because I highly doubt I'll play it again.

However I really had to let it go on this game and just go along with it. Now I'm in Act 3 and I'm drowning in gear. I could also buy gear to do a variety of builds if I wanted.

But don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Just play the game and do what you want.
