Sorry, you lost me here. Baldur's Gate had exploding arrows, you can loot one from the first encounter outside of Candlekeep. Exploding barrels, the infamous "red barrels" have existed in games for years, predating even Larian studios. So no.
Crap you are right. I remember nothing about them being near BG1 start, but I don't return to that game very often. Those were shitty. I suppose that is fine then. At least Larian is adapting the janky part of BGs, that I prefer to forget. Maybe they will get to do Halflife3 next, and all they learn from the series, is slidey controls.
I didn't say that Larian invented barrels. Many games have barrels. They didn't invent push either.
