One thing to remember now is that most people who are going to buy the game just because its BG3 (like me) have already bought it, this is it, us. Most customers from now on are going to be buying it based on reviews. If Larian totally ignores what people are saying on these forums and do what they want players will post that on places like Steam hitting full release sales.
So, while they can't please everyone, how will they try to please some? Make it a 5e simulator? I know I'm not looking for that, the bits we have are enough. It is a fine line trying to please everyone. Maybe they won't even try, just take the money they have, hash together the rest of the game and make DOS 3 with the money they've already made. So whatever we say or do is just idle gossip and speculation as they will do whatever they want, whenever they want, however they want, the same as all game companies.
But my idle gossip and speculation is 6 man parties and space hamsters would increase sales at least a kazillion times.
And while trying to remember my AD&D past I finally remembered old D&D, max level 36, Karameikos and all the rest of it, maybe the game should change to those rules, you get more mileage out of a 36 level cap than 20. WAIT! I still have the immortals rules boxset somewhere! can we have those as well?
