    Those developers trying to shit on Larian need to cry and seethe more. Terribly incompetent people who can’t create good games themselves, why not trying taking notes instead?

    Keep up the great work Larian.

      The devs are mostly not the problem with the state of AAA games today, it’s the people telling them what to do in order to maximise profits.

      Same as with most problems we face as a species, really.

      I can’t find developers doing this. Seems like a mostly made up concern by overly sensitive people looking to be angry about something.

        The picture in the OP is PR for a publishing company. There are many other accounts of people who work in the industry who are angry/jealous of Larian. You’re probably just not looking in the right places.

        Who in management exactly? As far as I know Larian is not responsible for the tweets aside from just making a good game.

          I’m not talking about Larian, I’m talking about the studios who want to keep cranking out suppisedly AAA games that are little more than creatively bankrupt, dressed up vending machines.

            Yeah, in that case I totally agree. It’s just ineptitude shouting at excellence.

      Try actually reading what the developers are saying. Most are saying that they can’t make good games because the suits won’t let them. They keep fucking over and chasing off the most experienced and visionary people, force teams to chase trends instead of concentrating on one type of game and never give them enough time.

        From all that I’ve seen it’s more like they are trying to dismiss the success that Larian has found by saying that they are a special case which is nothing but smoke and mirrors. Larian did hard work and are being rewarded for it.
