Question about FOMO in Baldur's Gate 3 (lemmy.world)

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 am still in Act one.
But it seems I screwed up some things which let to one character leaving my party early and a second refusing to even join it.
A third character got killed in a scripted event. So I am now stuck with the same three companions for the rest of the game.

While I don't like how this turned out I decided I won't reload just to try to make it better.
I just sticked with my group and Play on because it felt right to do so.

Of course I will miss out dialogues and story elements of the other characters, but I still can concentrate on them in a second playthrough.

You'll get plenty of companions, don't worry
