"should have given to Obsidian"

Not just no, but HELLS no.

OK so the first POE was pretty damn good... the second was a raging fiasco with the devs actively mocking the paying customers.. It was a nightmare of a game that STILL doesn't run as well in its post release state as BG3 does in EA.

As much as I truly *wanted* to like POE2, if BG3 had been done by them I wouldn't have even bothered looking at it until well after final release. This game is barely out of the starting area and I've happily spent over 100hrs on it. POE3? I've tried 6 new games and never finished a single one. Ended up uninstalling in disgust after about 30hrs play time.
