Great to see baulders gate 3 doing well. A perfect storm of development conditions and we get rewarded at the end of it with a fantastic game. Hopefully heaps of extra extra content down the track to keep it going
Why do people say "perfect storm of conditions"? Larian has worked hard to perfect their style of crpgs through the divinity series. They put an emphasis on good storytelling and listening to fan feedback. They do early access to perfect their systems. They hire writers, composers and developers based on merit. They care about what they are creating. This is not a perfect storm but good management and development cycle. There is nothing random or lucky about it.
Of curse there is a lot of great Management and skill in Larian and they worked Hard to reach the Level of skill they have Shown of. However there are also certain eternal Faktors. AFAIK there have been several Times in the past where the Studio have easily gone bankrupt were it Not for certain Events. Also they have reached a critical point of exposure where enough People know them. There are several Studios which Do great games but you have never Heard of them. As an example i think Unknown Wordls (Subnautica) are creating a great game with Moonbreaker but it seems to miss the critical mass and might die during development
