This is what I am hearing endlessly about why Baldur’s Gate 3 is a success. I say that’s a crock of shit sold by bad companies and developers and an insult to Larians hard work.
These are the things for my opinion:
- They have 20 years of experience making CRPGS with the Divinity series
- They do Early Access to test and perfect their systems
- The listen to customer feedback and distill the good from the bad, ending up with a better product
- They don’t insult their customers and respect them
- No microtransactions or Day 1 DLC, or mention of upcoming DLC and Season Pass
- They hire Writers, Composers and Developers BASED ON MERIT!
- You can see the love they put in the games from the Panels from Hell and social media
I am sure there are many more things that add to their success but random chance and luck is not the reason; hard work, dedication and good management is!
Just a little rant and pet peave I wanted to get off my chest.
Yeah, it negates the effort the person put it. This is the reason people tend to dislike the Mary-Sue characters of “modern movies”.
