Did Starfield really have a larger development budget though? I mean, its certainly plausible, but Early Access dropped a boatload of cash in Larian's lap to develop Baldur's Gate, so I also find it plausible that BG3 had a comparable budget. Does anybody have actual numbers?
Or I could just tell you that Starfield cost $415 Million with 500 devs and Bg3 cost 100 Million with 300 staff , not sure how many actual Devs, clearly a lot less.
