Weird, we were commenting on that twitter chain days ago in other places but I really didn't expect to see it become an article. Then again maybe I should have, given the current standards for gaming journalism.
Anyway, the whole thing reads basically as "Please, lower your expectations."
I mean, he may even make some good point about how not many studios could do what Larian is doing, but the over-defensive attitude he's going for is annoying in itself.
Not to mention that the whole verbal deluge seems to imply that Larian somehow happened to find itself in a privileged position, with a fanbase, a good engine, a budget and a license... Except none of these things is there by accident and they had to build their way up there.
What about studios like Bioware and (to a lesser degree) Obsidian, then? Competitors that started WAY ahead of Larian and managed to squander all their initial advantage?
Party control in Baldur's Gate 3 is a complete mess that begs to be addressed. SAY NO TO THE TOILET CHAIN
