I don't even know what this means.From what I've read so far, it looks more like D&D changed Baldurs Gate 3.

So Larian is braver that WotC. Got it.BG3 begins Dev - Using 2014 5e.
BG3 gets some new guidance - Using Internal UA/Testing
BG3 releases with things like Weapon Properties
5e2024 UA releases with Weapon Properties.
I believe thats the logic some are proposing.

Which mostly falls under the category of rules that WotC was testing out (Wild Heart Barbarian) or adapting to the fact that "Rulings, Not Rules" doesn't work in a video game. Which obviously doesn't apply back to the TTRPG. The D&D channel has been spamming videos about BG3 the past few weeks, with stuff in the title emphasizing how much BG3 is just like the TTRPG.Except where it's not.
I voted “yes”.No.
There's been D&D video game hits since The Gold Box days. I can't think of one that has changed the tabletop in any significant way.
It may draw some folks into playing the tabletop, but they are separate experiences. We might see a spell or mechanic from the game, but certainly no change in the direction of the design of the tabletop.
Of course, I'm always wrong on these sort of prognostications for just about anything.
It was the latter: the WotC devs talked about how they used BG3 development as a testbed fir Tasha's ideas, and worked with Larian on changes now being proposed fir the new core.It’s why there are several, albeit minor, mechanics in the playtest based on the BG3 game mechanics (or they were in BG3 based on early play testing we hadnt seen)
I laughed because I’ve had tables filled with those characters.There have already been posts about being able to "save" before boss fights etc. Not to mention most people already play the "Im a special snowflake" character (I'm a prince who was gifted powers by a vampire made of lava and now I'm the best assassin in the world... at level 1."
BG3 isn't going to change anything that some people weren't already doing in their games already more or less.
