Gonna refer back to the start of this thread. BG3 has created an interest and discussion around CRPGs and this is ALWAYS good for the genre. The specifics of how good or bad you think BG3 is much less relevant than the fact the mainstream world of gaming has a lot more interest in the CRPG worlds.
Very much this. How often do we see any AAA CRPGs? Dragon Age after Origins always seemed embarrassed by its CRPG origins and moved further and further away from them. The next one is apparently going to be a full action RPG.
AAA CRPGs don’t really exist at all these days, so for one to come by and be so unrepentant about what it is is a triumph.
