BG3 has its good parts [...] but overall the RPG experience is not all that great and Larian spend a lot of money in superficial things to distract from that.
I'll never forget that this is the company that
Hired out an entire historic castle the size of a city block for over a week in order to do a media presentation and generate self-congratulating back-patting hype... but they could not spare the resources to ensure that we have the option to roll for our stats, like they
Said Would Be Available In Game At Launch, or to address why we can't.
Their entire production has been a string of misdirection, false promises, broken words and deliberate deception (which they sometimes even emphasised that they did because it was funny to them), culminating in a whole lot of massive over-promise and under-delivery, and the thing that I find really confusing is why they are given such a great big pass on their poor behaviour and their broken, buggy and obviously incomplete product, when any other studio would be torn to ribbons over behaving like this or delivering a product in this condition. It baffles me.
