Thank you for watching, Baldur’s Gate 3 is definitely a rare game, but for all the wrong reasons. It should be the standard, but instead it’s the exception in a sea of monetized bloated season pass nonsense.

And that’s why these devs want to tear it down.

This isn’t a new baseline. It isn’t a new standard. It’s a return to the old gold standard where devs actually made a game with love. A full and complete game made with the fans and not trying to bleed the pockets of their consumers

I don't expect this level of quality from indie devs, but AAA studios have no excuse. Hold their feet to the fire.

The "overdelivering" mentality is one of the most pathetic and weak minded things I've ever seen. The fact that some companies have the audacity to even say things like that publicly is absurd. I'm glad we have devs like FromSoftware and Larian that actually care and respect their creations as pieces of art instead of just one more product to sell.

BG3 is the definition of "Suffering from success."

Larian Studios did such an incredible job that they are now universally hated by other AAA developers.

"Making BG3 the new baseline for RPGs could kill a whole string of studios"

Your terms are more than acceptable.

Also have to add, Baldur's Gate 3 is an example of when passionate, hard-working video game developers are in charge of their projects instead of less passionate but money-hungry businessmen.

I didn't even know Larian existed until I saw Bg3. But I will definitely be a returning customer to them the next time they release a game. This is how big game companies should make their customers feel

First time in years a game has been fully developed and doesn't have a battle pass or millions of microtransactions this gives the feeling of the golden age of gaming

I find it hilarious how some of these studios are saying, “I AM excited to play this, but real quick, just don’t ask us to put in hard work and effort for our releases, cool?”😂

[JimBlack]

The joy this game has brought is literally what was felt in the early 2000's when games were still scratching the surface of 'whats possible' not 'whats profitable'

[nFernandez]

Ive never been a studio fan, but Larian's response and values really made me proud of playing their game. Theyre not milking me for my money, no subscriptions or paywalls, they litterally just sold me a good game and somehow im really surprised.

[lilbanili]

I love that any time a good game comes out all these devs rush to tell us that we shouldn't expect them to make games that are fun just because someone else managed to

[DarkShadow-peud]

If these developers think that a complete game from release is over-delivering then they're in the wrong industry.

[airdas]

They're just admitting that we shouldn't expect this level of quality from any of them

BG3 is the first $70+ game (I'm Canadian so it's $79.99 CAD) where I didn't regret or feel uneasy about spending that money on it. I can easily play BG3 many times through without feeling bored, there is so much content I still cannot grasp it!! I can't remember feeling this enthralled by a game in YEARS!!

[megapeebs]

the fact that it WON the GOTY is just another wake up call to other studios. Great Job Larion!

[nrf]

Imagine a world where the better product made the better profit

[l_manfre]

The fact that a company focus on customer experience and satisfaction rather than money actually makes me want to buy their games

[HillsB]

It’s crazy how instead of listening to the people who give them money, they blame and punish them. AAA game companies don’t act like businesses, they act like abusive parents.
