Sorry, wait, is DOSII not widely considered to be one of the games most responsible for the modern crpg resurgence?
Like, don't get me wrong, I have loads of criticisms about how Larian is handling BG3, but I think it's undeniable that they are one of the, if not the, most popular crpg devs right now.
At this point, I have to ask if this cRPG resurgence actually did happen, or if it was really just a handful of games in the genre getting noticeable budgets.
Larian is the most popular cRPG dev right now because they’re really the only one left other than Owlcat. All the other big players left the genre. Not much of a resurgence there, is it?
Going from nothing to something is still a resurgence to me. I can't really think of any popular CRPG the period before DoS2... Grimrock maybe?
