Skyrim's current sales figures are closing in on 50 million. Witcher 3 is well over 40 million. CP2077 closing in on 20 million. Even Obsidian's Grounded has sold over 10 million. Starfield will surely be in the same box as these games, sales-wise, though BG3 surely will not.
I am actually really interested to see how BG3 does sales wise. It's not exactly in a genre that is going to permit it to break any kind of crazy sales records (seems like you have to be mobile, child oriented, FPS or some big open world action title type thing) - but it is a pretty beloved franchise. Sven said sales were "insane" already and in October of 2020 it was reported that over a million copies had already sold.
I imagine it settles in somewhere between the 5 million and 10 million mark depending on how well received the actual release of the game is. I'm also curious what Larian would consider to be very successful given that the budget for BG3 has to be massive compared to D:OS2.
To beat DOS2 should be really easy it sold over 1 million so already 2 million sold and crystal clear win over DOS2.
My own brother warned me DOS2 is full of silly comedy that I do not like.
What brought me to forums is Dungeons and Dragons and well title BG3. Now Larian has very good reputation and DOS2 got excellent reviews and I am aware of that fact. Early Access in BG3 is excellent and not full of annoying comedy though well I laughed at one thing in Early access so far, but I will not spoil what issue. BG3 seems serious enough for my taste and seems to become excellent game. Now in BG3 multiplayer group gaming some player could rarely fuck up do mistakes and that could create funny situations and that is all fine in my book.
