WOR doesn’t have that budget because the game isn’t as fun and thus not as popular.
Larian built their success on making the games enjoyable for the players, I don’t like a lot of the Larian homebrew etc but I admit it is fun to exploit it on occasion.
DOS 2 was a lot of fun to play and BG3 is even more fun. They are committed to doing things to make the player’s enjoyment their first priority.
Give the people what they want and they will beat a path to your door.
