Exactly. They did first break-even with DOS1 that was developed by a few guys in Swen's basement, and that poured a foundation to raise resources for DOS2. And then, Larian became huge company with multiple employees and offices around the world, they spent 6 YEARS (SIX YEARS, CARL!), polishing BG3. And people be like "Hey Swen, you know, BG3 is much better than Divinity. Brother do you mind making new Divinity a better game like BG3 because previous DOS/DOS2 were not so great, please?"

For real 😆

Re: General feedback from BG3 -> DOS2 new player btnialan Yesterday at 05:14 AM
You proved my word by listing 10ish titles. That is it? Exactly what I said — the industry lacked good CRPG games (what I meant is we lack the good quantity of them, I didn't mean they did not exist at all, only handful of them), and ten games is nothing. I would not even include POE and others, and would keep only tactial turn-based CRPGs, that would narrow down it even more. It is easy to say it is a niche genre of something that doesn't exist — how can I play a game that does not exist? Well other corporate greedy companies were busy releasing Call of Duty and FIFA every year, but it doesn't matter anything they touch is crap anyway. After releasing BG3 you can tell that the demand was always there and Swen and Larian knew it.

Well, what are you trying to compare here? I am pretty sure you know the history of Larian studio, how they struggled with publishers, budget, deadlines, etc? Having years of years of pain and suffer developing games in rush without making any profit and making weird RTS just to kick things off, and finally somehow Swen, Kirill Pokrovskiy and a few enthusiasts created DOS1 working 24/7 in Swen's basement and finally did break even for the first time which helped them to crowdfund resources for DOS2 and finally deliver a finished, polished product that was well rewarded. Now, after leaving all pain behind and becoming a well known company with multiple offices and employees around the World who can afford buying almost any IP and have freedom do develop a whatever game they want, Larian spent 6 YEARS (I REPEAT, SIX YEARS) to polish BG3 that won GOTY.

Really? I mean, like do you really compare them? They are all CRPG but it is not an apple-to-apple comparison lol

Hi Larian,

first off, sorry for putting this here. I couldn't find an appropriate thread or forum and also no obvious person to contact for the matter.
I would like to delete my account. How am I doing this?

Cheers.

Re: Formal petition: more curves, and yes, jiggle physics D3monKing666 10/11/26 03:30 PM
I for one would 100% welcome a much large variety of choice in physics, shapes, sizes, proportions and customisable options.

A game can easily cater to a much larger community by being careful how it allows these options to be accessed and used.

BG3 for example, already had nudity and sex scenes. WITH the option of turning it OFF.
Conan used a DLC, but had no sex.
These games are usually 18+, close to that age, or rated M for mature themes for a reason, as many games similar, suitable for children already exist. Literally thousands of them.

The world and most of the things you see are highly sexed already, social media is rampant with it. Some people really do need to just get over it, and some people just need to be more honest.
