I think it's kinda weird how obsessed the gaming press is with Larian. I get it, they made one of the best games that released last year, but that's not enough to make an article out of everything they say. It has been months of these articles being on my lemmy feed and they have yet to say something interesting.

The thing is: they didn't just make one of the best games released last year, they made one of the best games released in a decade. I, like many people, had given up hope on ever getting a game with this kind of size and quality. It's normal that people look towards the authors of creative works with such an impact.

Nobody was talking about Larian when they released DOS2, and the only big thing BG3 has that DOS2 doesn't is the animated dialogue (and DnD setting).

To be fair, just that system was a lot of work for the devs and it does wonders for the game; but DOS2 is a freaking amazing game too, it just didn't have the publicity.

Yep dos 1 and 2 are crazy underrated, which is why I'm happy Bg3 got so much praise, even if my hipster side hurts a bit lol.
