A lot of folks are listing their favorite games but this is the one that truly fits. Unusually long development time by a studio known for DnD-simmiliar RPG games getting the next installation for the series that defined the genre. Cast voice actors for several years, ones that are still playing their characters on a variety of platforms. And just chock filled references, in-jokes, and faithful updates on old characters.
Everyone involved with it clearly loved what they were doing.
Part of the reason development took so long was due to them using early release for the right reasons. They listened to the player base and changed the game based on feedback from the fans
No joke, I installed the open-beta/pre-release years ago, played for a bit, and uninstalled it. When the actual release dropped, I had the most intense déjà vu about it all because I forgot that had even happened. I had to go back to my Steam library to puzzle it all back together.

It got people not previously interested in DND to actually enjoy DND.

Also, as a literal interpretation, it occurs over 3 arcs.

The real question is what is Larian’s equivalent to Peter Jackson’s “Meet the Feebles”?

Divinity: Dragon Commander, duh.
