also we probably wont look back at BG3 in a couple of years because the sitaution is different.
No game realy arrives at that level anymore simply because of how many games there are.
Just like how there wont be another WoW, or anohter Minecraft for that matter.
you can only realy be this thing again if you invent a new genre
Why are we so many still playing BG1/2 today ? Because the situation was different and because they were less games 20 years ago ?
Only because of the easy and stupid "nostalgia" thing ? Thinking the only step missing is "nostalgia" can't explain why nearly every BG forums are still active, with new (open minded about graphics) players loving the experience they live.
WoW is a very good exemple... Why was it way more sucessfull than other great MMORPG of 2001-2006 games ?
It wasn't the first, it wasn't the last... And there were great mmorpg before it comes out (DAOC, EQ2 a few days earlier).
I don't really think he created something
totally new but he had obviously something more... now it's also a legend...
How sad it is to think video games can't anymore reach that level... (and strange to think it's because they are many many games today).
I think Larian with this game called BG3 has an opportunity to do something really amazing and to get everyone to agree whatever you're a fan of D&D, of DoS, of BG, of Pathfinder and all kind of RPG games.
They just have to stay open minded and not closed to things they haven't master yet. That's the first comment I did when I learn Larian will do BG3.
