  Sqenix can’t make good games anymore, I am sorry.

  I suspect Larian will take their sweet time.

  Bioshock sounds like it’s in development hell; I’d be suspicious of that.

    Nah, Larian will jump the gun, release too early and have another bug infested game. They need to reduce their scope, actually take their time and make a great RPG. BG3 was too much for them, a smaller more refined experience would have been amazing, they shouldn't chase "bigger is better".

      BG3 turned out well, though?

        Ignoring all the problems, sure. You could get through it, but there were lots of bugs and inconsistencies. I played again recently after all the patches and while it was much better, it still had it's fair share of issues. The overall game, lore and story is very good, though I think DOS combat is far superior for a video game than DnD.

    Larian’s next game is the teased statue that Keighley tweeted, so they’ll have something to announce tonight. The only thing they said it isn’t is Divinity: Original Sin 3, but it could be a different Divinity RPG, or a looter like the old-school Divinities, or a new Dragon Commander, or a new spin-off entirely. They’re also a multi-project studio now.

      Oh that’s awesome. Yeah, I see the rumors now:

      Selfishly, I hope their other half’a working on a sci fi game. Or a cyberpunk one?

      Shadowrun? Gods, that IP would be perfect for Larian.

        I’d very much like to see them do a sci-fi setting, like Starfield, but as a turn-based CRPG (with more thought and heart put into it).

  Same for FF but also no tactical shite either, turn based is fine but the damn chessboard shit was enough during the 3DS era, so many great stories ruined by the gameplay.
