I mean, why wouldn't they go back to their own IP they have 100% control over?

The chance to make BG3 was obviously worth it, but Larian doesn't need DnD to make video games.

And honestly I'm happy they're not making bg4 next. But I hope a decade from now they do. These games aren't CoD, we dont need to crank out sequels immediately.

I wouldn't have bought BG3 if it weren't for D&D, but you're right, after how awesome that game was, I'll definitely buy whatever they make next.

The Divinity games they made before this were wildly popular and have a lot of the same things that made bg3 popular.

If you have played Divinity 2 yeah, scoop it up on the next sale

It's worth clarifying that it's the Divinity: Original Sin games that are similar style CRPGs, and I'm assuming you mean Original Sin 2.

There is a game called Divinity 2, but it's wildly different (I still love it though)

Divinity 2 is completely awesome. The humor is just 👌 Original Sin 2 is just amazing.
