Normal people, huh? Oh boy.

The game will be a synthesis of DOS2 and D&D. Neither a pure reflection of BG2 nor a clone of DOS2.

The only people who care about the name and 'feel' and how unique it does or does not look are the BG 1 & 2 devotees, who represent a small minority of those who will be interested in this game. It would be counter productive to cater the game to their tastes when doing so might drive away the larger number of prospective customers who would otherwise be very interested in it.




Wow, you are such a business person arent you.

So what you are actually saying is that DOS1 and DOS2 were a success, and that Larian should just make DOS3, but call it BG3? That is what they are doing right?

Making a game called Baldurs gate THREE and ignoring the COMPLETE fanbase of BG ONE and TWO sounds like a pretty dumb business idea to me.

But who knows, maybe old BG fans will play the new BG3/DOS3 and realize how great the new game is, and how the old games just had to be completely thrown out the window (Dont fix what aint broken right!).
