This year though I was leaning into giving it to CDPR because Cyberpunk just like BG3 is one of my favorite games of all time and CDPR is really doing its best to perfect the game, but ultimately gave it to BG3 because;

  • Community is nice and friendly (here on the forums at least)
  • Fixing the bugs and in such a capacity each month is an admirable feat
  • The game is Absolute-ly fantastic even in its clearly rushed state which is being rectified
  • Larian's communication is utterly abysmal, but at least they are listening and implementing player feedback where they can
  • No predatory corporate BS microtransactions and such

In short from my own POV; Larian lacks on the communication front, but what they lack in communication they make up for in action.


I totally agree with this - for those reasons, I ultimately gave the point to Larian too.
