Baldur’s Gate III has really changed what most people expect game studios to be capable of, but I really feel like the game is WAY too big.


Its smaller than BG2 without the expansions. Bg2 was released 25 years ago. Ive replayed 2 at least 10 times and still not tired of it. Even have it on mobile.

LOL this dude has managed to create an entire miniature Vietnam War to run around and explore on your computer. It's Early Access, janky as hell, but more ambitious and original than anything I've seen come out of big studios recently (although I am loving Expedition 33). And this is one guy...

ETA: And it costs $15

I haven't even come close to beating Act I yet, so I know exactly what you mean. It's like everyone has piled on this trend of making it bigger, longer, more spectacular.... and forgot to ask "are we making it BETTER?"
