BG3 is not an AA game, lol. The A’s simply mean budget, and BG3 had a budget of over $100 million.

Yes, it’s totally normal for AAA (and Ubi AAAA) games to enter early access before full release to finance development post ACT I… Yes, BG3 is totally a AAA game and Larian a AAA studio… FML!

That’s literally what AAA means…

And to think Larian is some small company is also silly. It has over 400 employees and 7 offices. It’s privately owned, yes, but it hasn’t been an AA studio since the success of Divinity Original Sin 2 and most definitely not since the massive success of BG3.
