Maybe you find it odd because you presume I've played a Larian game previously. When I'm saying they where a company to watch it was from my experience playing Act 1 of BG3, not Divinity 2.
Even that I find odd. Forming an opinion about an entire company based off of a single Act of a single game...
Personally, I don't even form an opinion about a game itself until I've played the whole thing, let alone a company, which can have inconsistencies between titles making a single game not entirely representative of the company.
Well, when a single Act is as long as many games.. I think that is why I made an opinion on the company from one Act. It's freaking long. And I can't help but having opinions when playing games. This is cool, this is not, etc. I would find it odd if you felt nothing playing a game. Also opinions are not set in stone, I can change it like I did with my opinion on Larian after finishing Act 3. Now, I still love the game, but I'm a bit disappointed, much like OP.
Every game does represent the company they come from, the history and which way they will most likely take in the future. Judging them on what they make is sensible, imo.
