i dont think anyone is trying to make CRPGs for a broader audience. the only ones that tried were Bioware with dragon age.
Realy, CRPGs are a niche genre and i think Larian, Obsidian and Owlcat all know this. The fanbase is small and dedicated, but they also like experimentation.
Hence why the next owlcat game is gonna have a HoMM like mode in it.
Bioware got name recognition, but at the end of the day, CRPGs just dont have tripple A appeal
Maybe they should try then, if Bioware's attempt with DA: Origins is anything to go by. It's one of my favorite games. What came after, not so much.
