I find sorcerer to be the better magic class of the game. Which subclass did you choose?
Draconic. I tend to agree, at least with my limited experience.

The irony is that in DnD lore, the red wizard is the most powerful class. Unfortunately, from what I can understand, the wizard in BG3 doesn't become properly viable until late game.

Furthermore, if you want to maximize the damage your team can do, combine rogue and support/heals into the lore bard instead of having two separate characters for those jobs. Apparently, a cleric-healer is not necessary in the game and healing word is all that's needed for when a companion falls

BG3, left Act I behind. Lae'zel is dead by my hand. Is Shadowheart next? Or Astarion?

I have always managed to keep Lae'zel alive.
Mountain Pass and Creche are considered the end of Act I.
Venturing into the Shadowcursed Lands is considered the beginning of Act II. I've only made it there once, but I've yet to experience the creche.
I ended up making it to the Last Light Inn and the Isobel quest. Because I didn't like how it turned out, I restarted the game.
With more than seven hundred hours of restarting again and again, I took a break from the game. When I restart, I think I'll do sorcerer. I want to finish the game, but I just can't seem to. It's as though I suddenly have OCD and I want everything to be perfect. Unfortunately, the game was not designed for that kind of gameplay.

People who play tabletop dnd know that ones are not rolled as much as a simulation in a game makes it happen.

When I first started the game, there was a food source at camp that replenished itself each time I decided to long rest. It must have been fixed in an update, because now resting is harder. Now I actually have to spend money on food, ugh.

Telling the tiefling kids in the grove, "Bad news, you're all gonna die." Haven't felt brave enough to choose this dialogue option yet.

Another difference between BG3 and tabletop, if I'm remembering correctly, is that we always rolled two dice instead of one.
