Because of Nostalgia mate. its not "easy and stupid".
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar
Baldurs Gate, ESPECIALY baldurs gate 1 is not a game that a lot of people play. most start with Baldus Gate 2 that replay it now.
WoW isnt a great MMORPG. What WoW did is what Blizzard always did. you think Starcraft was the best RTS game?
No.
Blizzard takes stuff other people make and boils it down to something highly polished and highly accesible.
WoW was Everquest but without having to be a nerd to enjoy it while also picking a timeless artstyle that doesnt look old too fast.
What im saying is that RPGs are a heavily iterative genres and theres a lot of em.
I dont think well see an RPG that reaches this level of critical acclaim soon.
Same with games like Morrowind which broadened the horizon in other wys.
Does larian have the chacne? maybe.
but i think the only way to realy stand out is to do somehting groundbreaking like include Peresistant Worlds.
