A few weeks prior to its launch, Baldur’s Gate 3 looks like one of the most promising RPGs in recent memory. However, some devs are urging players not to rate all other games in the genre by such a high standard, appealing to Larian Studios’ unique combination of vast experience and resources.

    Maybe it should be the new standard though.

      So we should expect indies with a comparatively tiny budget to match the scale and scope of BG3?

        No - you don’t expect indie games to do AAA standards

        It should be the standard for AAA games though

        Not what Ubisoft or EA throw out as AAA that’s just very polished with fancy graphics but kind of bare one 8n terms of story or mechanics
