I see this announcement as a Rorschach test. It is vague enough for people to draw their own conclusion. People who are confident in the project are happy to know everything is going according to plan and people who have trust issues are projecting on it their worriness of the state of BG3 and Larian.
That may well be the case.
As part of team “trust issues”, I find it reassuring to see Larian’s mocap facilities. They’re saying: “Relax everyone. We know we’re trying to make a 100 hour animated movie in the time it takes to make a single pixar film, but we can actually pull it off and deliver on the rest of BG3.”
It’s either that or two bears wearing hats fighting in a meadow.
