I specifically do remember people telling me "This game probably isn't for you. Don't waste your time with it."

That seems like an aggressive statement to make. Like I'm not welcome in the BG3 community.

Not really. It's a fairly reasonable take based on what you've said: you dislike every genre that the game can fall under prior to this point and don't play them as a point. Yes BG3 has an argument for being the best CRPG, but just being the best doesn't really mean everyone is required to like it. Especially when their previous game, Divinity 2, is similar in many aspects and has been out for long enough that it could be presumed that you turned that one down already.

You are the one that has all of this in front of you. Idk how you even looked it up, but from what I remember people were being very rude and hostile to me for not being into western RPGs and fantasy. The positive response may not have left as much of an impression on my memory because they weren't as "loud".

That is more a human nature thing. A study found that humans remember negatives vastly more than positives and you would need to have the positives vastly outnumber the negatives (generally around 4+:1) for the positives to stick more than the negatives. It's why, for instance, people get vastly more heated about nerfs in a game than they get positive about buffs: the nerf is a negative and is thus massively more emotionally resonant.
