The lack of self awareness is outstanding.

I preordered the very first day and BG3 early access was rough.

But Larian got a shit ton of alpha testers that paid to test.

And with only act 1, people played it dozens of times trying every stupid thing they could think of.

That's a huge advantage for the studio, and players fucking loved it.

You could argue Cyberpunk had a lot of alpha testers as well, it just wasn't labeled early access.

Eh, I got cyberpunk on release too, and honestly didn't have many issues.

It was on a decent PC, but I never understood why so many people have such issues

I even bought it on PS5 later as well

It ran like ass and was full of bugs, you just got lucky.

It ran perfectly fine on my 4th gen i7/1080ti PC on day 1.
