Larian has internal roadmaps for development, however from a player PoV, Early Access is and always will be only Act 1. A road map for a typical early access game where the full game is released incrementally, a road map makes sense for a release schedule and general idea of where things are going. However, a road map for BG3 would look something like...

Q1: 2022 - Act 1
Q2: 2022 - Act 1
Q3: 2022 - Act 1
Q4: 2022 - Act 1

One could argue or hope for hypothetical details on what content patches include, say...


Q1: 2022 - Act 1: Mountain Pass
Q2: 2022 - Act 1: Monk
Q3: 2022 - Act 1: Iteration pass on 5E adaption
Q4: 2022 - Act 1: Bard

But as far as feedback on forums go, doesn't really make much difference for what kind of feedback or mannerisms we hold here, does it?
I was actualy thinking about marking at least megathreats if not everything as "concidering" "declined" and "working on implementation" laugh

I do believe they have internal roadmaps, it would be crazy to create something like this game without them. laugh
But we cannot see that, wich is understandable. :-/

Still wouldn't make a difference as far as forum behaviors and mannerisms go.

If 'concidering', posts would be as now, with people arguing their preference of implementation, and arguing why it should/shouldn't to sway where the consideration lands, just like now.

If 'declined', there'd be outcry with people arguing their preference and arguing why it should/shouldn't to sway why it should be considered, just like now.

If 'working on implementation', posts would... You see where I'm probably going with this: Not change from status quo. Only the format of the argument would change: "I hope they don't Larian-fy this / Why are they implementing this instead of X that I think is much more important for it to be BG3 and not DOS3', and around and around the wheel spins.


Edit: Doesn't mean I disagree by the way. I'd love some insight on what goes on and what is definitely in the works etc. Just suggesting that I don't think a road map matters here as much as sometimes is implied. Personally I think it'd be better in form of community updates and/or in the Panel From Hell streams, so I more often push for a change of where the focus is at during those streams, than something I don't believe really matters in any sense other than "cool to have".
