But more to the point, I think it is pretty tragic that anybody would visit a forum for a video game they aren’t looking forward to daily for multiple years. I think tragic is the best, least offensive way I can describe that bewildering behavior.
Why? As long as the game isn't finilized there is always hope. I will be probably gone, once I feel there is no point to further feedback. To me it seems like criticism benefited the game, though it is difficult to say how much of the criticism was necessary to get reaction from Larian, and how much of it would be addressed anyway (aka. Larian being aware that there is an issue to be solved).
BG3 uses existing IP, and many will care for the IP, even if not for the game itself. That is the burden Larian took on themselves when decided to do a sequel to a beloved series.
And on a side note, what would one do here if not complain about the game? If the game was top notch I would just play it. If I go to the trouble of creating an account on the forum, it is precisely to complain about it. I can't think of a reason to do so otherwise.
