Nah no way. I'm as big a BG fanboy as anyone but it's a decidedly niche genre. The vast majority of people are not interested in CRPGs.

Possible counterpoint worth noting, that game has been breaking concurrent player records on steam for several days in a row, and the game has yet to release on consoles. So if it's not the biggest game this year yet, it's likely to happen in the nearby future.
