I kinda missed the isometric, point and click era of RPG’s because I grew up in an Apple household. So I played a lot of Warcraft 2 during that time period. Is Baldur’s Gate 3 going to be that same style of game kinda in the vein of Divinty Original Sin?
It is VERY similar to the Divinity games. It uses somewhat modified DnD 5e rules, as opposed to Divinitys’ own system (though that system took a lot of inspiration from DnD.) The RPG and world building elements will feel very familiar.
Yeah I've never been a fan of the point-and-click isometric mechanics, but I've been playing some BG3 and it's pretty well done, I'm enjoying it. Definitely feels exactly like Divinity OS 2 but with DnD lore. Granted, I wasn't a big DOS2 fan but that was mostly because the story tried so hard to be miserable all the time and make the player feel like shit for any decision they made. I'm not super far into BG3 but I don't quite get that same vibe from it.

I’ve played both casually (BG3) in early access. The ruleset is quite different IMO
Dice rolls and punishes out of character choices, seems like

It’s basically Divinity: DnD Edition.
Yes! It’s the same developer as Divinity.
The games don’t play exactly the same, but they are the same style.
