It's a different genre of game. Skyrim is an open world rpg. BG3 is a CRPG, like Dragon Age, Pillars of Eternity, Mass Effect, etc.
Ahhhhh. Dragon Age Origins. I knew there was a game that BG3 was scratching the itch from.
It follows the DAO formula very closely. Though it also improves on it in some ways. And IMO there is at least one thing that DAO does better, which is that the main player character gets some actual character development.
