Do we really need more Baldur’s Gates? The story was finished in Throne of Bhaal, then Larian dug the corpse up and put a mindflayer brainworm in it, and now it’s finished again. Just tap into the oodles of other Dungeons and Dragons settings for the next game. Why not adapt the Dragonlance novels into games? Or call it something else if you stay in Forgotten Realms, let this franchise rest.
Ah, I’m sorry I’m just shouting at clouds. Who wants a new IP when you can cash in on a successful established brand and squeeze some wallets until they bleed. That’s my bad, I forgot myself and the current state of things for a second. And I mean, it already worked for BG3 so fuck it, run it back I guess.
no one is stopping new IP from happening.
I’d love another Baldur’s gate in the future. I’d also love to see other worlds explored in other IPs as well.
why not both?
Rogue Trader is near the top of my backlog. Has anyone here played it? How is it?
Don’t recommend for multiplayer. We were looking at it post BG3, but unless they’ve totally revamped it, two players are basically “sidekicks” and have very little ability to do things outside combat. We also had graphics performance issues, but that was a year+ ago and could have been related to co-op.
I played it co-op as well, and we had constant desync issues, like multiple times per hour. I hope they can fix that for their next game, because they do make decent games.
I’d just like to get more games in Larian’s engine. Doesn’t need to be Baldurs Gate, but keeping it D&D would make the spell mechanics easy
