First time I saw Divinity: Original Sin, I was blown away just how gorgeous it looked. But not for having a great 3D engine, or by hogging your systems resources, no, it was just a damn beautiful world, full of History, living characters, lore. The cramped cities, the ruined briges, the wrecked ships, there was just so many details in such a modest game. So it bears to notice that BG3 is just not simply gorgeous for being gorgeous, but for giving us a world that we want to explore, to run through, to live in. Best comparison is the Lord Of The Rings trilogy, a movie impossible to be made with such craft and attention to detail on a small budget. But a huge budget by itself doesn't grant us anything, isn't that right, The Hobbit? An even bigger budget but a rushed production ended up a big turd.
