Well if he is still being very open about it, then thats fair and I might be abit too cynical about it.

But then again, it is an IP that's both attached to Bioware and DnD, which does carry a lot of weight behind it (Morso DnD ofcourse).
And then you have the released game not being super faithfull to DnD lore (e.g. Balduran and Mindflayers (Who seem to be abit misunderstood but I'm no expert)), BG1-2 lore (Sarevok and Viconia) as well as the DnD Ruleset (Which I'm not against changing a ruleset to be more fun, some of those changes were are abit game breaking).

And with post-release, while adding a fair amount of fixes and gameplay features, is otherwise just being "abandoned"; it does come across as Larian just begrungingly making BG3, rather than something they were 100% behind.

I guess it just comes down to personal opinion of the game really.

I'd hope so too, especially if the next one is sci-fi, but this being their 4th game that had a rather rough last Act doesn't leave much confidence.
The behind the scences stuff that also seems to echo DoS 2's rather ambitious plan, but having to hard dial it back during EA, also doesn't help.
In saying that, this is their least rough out of the 4, so they are improving atleast.

Otherwise, I'd agree that moving on is the best thing they can do and well... how, or why, would you try to fix something that is, as per popular opinion, not considered broken.
