Oh I know that. But I will argue the longer a developer delays a game, the expectations rise sometimes to unattainable levels like say Cyberpunk.
I was just shocked how unbalanced this game is at this point in development. And it seems Larian isn’t swimming in funds or they wouldn’t have started EA this early.
And of course buying this early is my choice. I didn’t say I wasn’t going to buy it because I have buyers remorse. I meant I regret buying this early into EA when BG3 clearly has way more than a year before launch.
Understandable, but remember that Larian was not/is not a AAA studio with the finance, infrastructure and resourcing that brings.
Divinity brought them success and market presence but BG3 is arguably their big break. They've tripled their workforce off the back of it and you can bet that has changed their ambitions for the project. I don't doubt they intended a year in EA but between high EA sales and coronavirus the scope of the project is a lot greater than was conceivable in November.
