Dramatards and fellow turbo-neurodivergents, what do you think is chance that new cRPG comes out after BG3, I say zeroooooooooooooo :marseydeadinside3: :marseydeadinside3: :marseydeadinside3:

there's been slapfights :slapfight: :slapfight: :slapfight: in /r/baldursgate (the subreddit for the original 2 games from 20 years ago) that BG3 doesn't actually have any bearing for the overall health of the cRPG sector of the industry

The common pro-BG3 and pro-Larian belief is that BG3's stunning success will leak into the rest of the cRPG ecosystem in the gaming-spheres, but others do not hold this belief.

It's said that BG3's peerless success is effectively completely isolated to BG3 itself, and will not leak over to the rest of cRPG genre at all, and may even detract from it because BG3 raised the bar to high heaven and back.

The fricking /r/baldursgate mods deleted like all 3 of these threads :marseyrage: :marseyrage: :marseyrage: so now i have to go by memory; death to jannies

But the summary was that BG3 had the largest budget and development time of any crpg to date, and that it was very accessible to normies because it was 100% voice acted AND cinematically greenscreened, thus enabling normies to bypass reading, and it would be that the largest barrier to normies getting into cRPGs would be the amount of reading required in most cRPGs, not ironically enough the turbo-neurodivergent mechanics, at least according to the consensus of the /r/baldursgate strags

Combined with 5E being the least complex system would make it the most accessible cRPG ever for people who dont want to watch 45minute build videos (wimps)

But this also meant that the people drawn into BG3 would not leak over to games like BG1/BG2 - there had been a flurry of posts by people whom had played B3, and subequently tried BG1/2 got wrecked and disappointed and came bitching to the subreddit, which caused endless sneed :marseyshadow: :marseyshadow: :marseyshadow: so the mods banned the topic and removed it also :purerage: :purerage: :purerage:


Other /r/baldursgate regulars also went turbo-neurodivergent mode and checked the steam review frequency both before and after the release of BG3 after 3/4 months, and determined there was like zero change in frequency in all major cRPGs, inlcuding Pillars, dragon age, neverwinter ect (because sales figures are not known)

This also caused :slapfight: :slapfight: :slapfight: :bitchslap: which the mods also deleted, holy frick death to jannies :soysnoo2: :soysnoo2: :soysnoo2:

DO ANY DRAMATARDS KNOW HOW TO DO THAT THING WHERE YOU CAN VIEW DELETED THREADS? OR IS THAT GONE FOREVER AND EVER? :marseyitsover: :marseygiveup:

Anyways the steam review frequency thing seemed convincing to me, and i feel like that tracks, most people introduced to BG3 didn't obtain an appetite for cRPGs, they obtained an appetite for AAA fully voiced 3D rpg adventures

I don't care about your elfshit. The real question is if we'll ever get another KOTOR.

Short answer: No.

Avellone was persecuted :marseycrucified: because he actually had ideas and that made midwits nervous. Nobody is going to try that again for a generation after seeing what he lost.

I don't give a shit about your KOTOR remake requests. You will just get your version of elder scrolls in space and delude yourself into pretending that a 20 year old system has depth.

What i want is more games with ever rising quality standards.

Something more along the lines of Rachet and Clank modern games in terms of quality scaling.

Even HOrizon forbidden west did a good job.

Elden Ring again revolutionary.

Games need to keep scaling up.

I got Knights of the old republic on steam a year ago because everyone sucks its peepee but I couldn't map the controls to my liking:marseybrainlet: I refunded it after like 15 minutes of being annoyed :marseyxd: my laptop isn't good for gaming anyway :marseyindignant:

He doesn't want a KOTOR remake. He wants another game in the series with good/modern gameplay

I DUCKING LOVE KOTOR :#marseyletsfuckinggo2:

I fear the combat in a remake would be dumbed down Fallen Order shit though because some people still complain about the heckin dice rolls and it being too complicated.
