I'm kind of getting that feeling here. I went out to explore when I should have stayed and talked and finished some quests in the starting hub. A few levels means a lot.
So far I wouldn't say fights are numerous, so no frustration running into level 5 enemies at level 3. Only downside was going back across the map. There is a way point system, and I need to better learn it.
If you pay attention to your quest log and dialouge, the game will steer you where you should go, but it also doesn't not care one bit whether you do. It has a lot of freedom.
No scaleable enemies.
The magic system is DnD, pathfinder. You have x number of spell slots, which equal 1 use. So, if you want to cast grease more than once a rest, you have to slot it again. It can seem restrictive at first and in early levels, but you learn to work with it. You gave zero level spells that you can cast unlimited. Also, scrolls and potions.
You get more spell slots as you level up.
Resting takes you to your camp. Not sure on all the mechanics yet, outside party control and talking to your followers. Need supplies to rest.
I don't think you can spam resting like on older dnd games, but there also isn't a timer countdown on some quests, nor tracks time of day as strictly as the pathfinder games.
Like in pathfinder, I'm hoping there are some feats and equipment that gives you extra spell slots.

Really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions. It's funny that I had for whatever reason never heard of Divinity 1 before you brought it up, but because of another review I saw on YouTube (one of those silly ranking ones) I had heard of and got Divinity 2, but never actually played it.
Reading what you have posted makes me think that playing Divinity 2 while I wait for BG3 on the PS5 might be a good idea and help me some with the mechanics of BG3.
