To be fair BG3 is not without its AI problems. Be it stupid companions walking into danger or getting stuck or enemies that do nonsensical things. It also has a ton of glitches as detailed in the excellent bg3.wiki or shown by speedrunners.
It's a complex game and I don't mind that whatsoever. With games I like I generally tread a careful path to not accidentally break it too badly (though there's also intended ways to break the game, like sacrificing Gale to BOOOAL and having the world blow up in three long rests, or destroying an important book in Gauntlet of Shar). Crashes have been few.
Also, without the wiki I wouldn't have enjoyed my first playthrough thus far as much as I do as it's really easy to miss things. Kinda intrigued by BG1/2 now.
If you enjoyed Mass Effect, you’ll enjoy BG1/2. Old school BioWare.
BG1/BG2 are excellent games but it can take some getting use to the RTWP (Realtime with Pause) system and AD&D rules (THAC0, etc).
BG2 in particular is fantastic. Highly recommend them.

Oooo boy - you're gonna love the pathfinding in BG especially with 6 people in your party in tight corridors. /s
