  Gaming studios saying Baldurs gate 3 was an anomaly because they don't want to be held to these high standards

  I don't do brand loyalty, but Larian is good in my book. The best.

  I swear, Larian are like anime protagonists with how many close calls they’ve had and how obsessed with improvement they are

  Swen Vincke's speech at the end of game awards 2024 was 100% accurate and so Expedition 33 won

  Sven is the perfect example of what passion means; this man wanted to make something he could be proud of, no matter the confrontation and how many attempts, not for the money but for the love. Amazing.

  Honestly they were probs real lucky they got into the kickstarter when they did. I feel like now a days people are a lot more cautious about “ambitious too good to be true” projects after so many scams and failures

  i will say, divinity: original sin 2 is unironically one of THE BEST games i have ever layed my eyes on. <br>It was the very first game that i had ever made a steam review about.<br>You can truly feel the love that all the creators have poured into it. <br>Maybe i was hit by a charm grenade or maybe i got linked by the soul shackle spell.<br>But it truly was a game that has taken its place in my heart. <br><br>Baldur&apos;s gate 3 had me hyped up to no limits when i found out about the presales.<br>i infected about 10 other friends of mine to buy into the bg3 presales.<br>I even bought the game multiple times for other people i didn&apos;t even know!<br>Because i got invested so incredibly much by their passion.<br><br>If i ever win the lottery, some of that money WILL be going into larian studios. <br>That is how much i love the passion they have for their craft.<br><br>And i hope that I one day will find something myself, in which i can pour the same amount of love.

  And now we see games like Expedition 33, Hades 2 and Silksong continue to prove the &apos;big&apos; studios wrong. Long live Indie!
