People are not buying BG3 because of Larian (some yes), they are buying it because it is Baldurs Gate. The original BG series has sold 4 times more copies than DOS1&2, not counting the enhanced edition or sales post 2000. Larian need to make it clear who there target audience is, BG and D&D fans or pewdiepie subscribers.
I am sure DOS3 will be cut and pasted soon after BG3 is released. People were promised "something special" for BG3, so far not seeing it.
1m+ in EA is absolutely amazing considering the total sales of DOS2 is between 1.2-.1.35m. Says to me a different type of fan is interested in BG3, I wonder who that would be?
This. Mostly. (don't to equate all streamers with pewdiepie who is an idiot)
I'm glad they are talking about adding options like loaded dice for people who don't want to learn the system -- part of the problems with BG3 right now come from trying to please lazy video game critics who cba to learn the rules.
The thing I don't understand is that there is a large community of BG2 fans on reddit, beamdog and obsidian forums. Why aren't they more active here?
