This is how I started BG3 as well. I ran through the beginning “map area” as a Druid support and it was NOT the right call for a first-time Baldurs Gate player(or at least me). Once I got through the first “map” area, I restarted the game. I chose a more damage friendly class(rogue) and pretty much steamrolled after that. Now that I know that game enough, restarting helped me see some hidden areas I missed or things I just walked passed because of not knowing. 100% would recommend this. I think I was 15 or so hours in. But I quickly got back to my same progress maybe 12 hours in.
Similar experience for me. I somehow missed getting La'zel and Gale on my first playthrough. I managed to go back and find Gale, but La'zel was nowhere to be found. The encounter already happened I guess.
I restarted and things now make more sense.
