Huge news! Definitely the biggest for me more than anything else so far.

I was a huge Baldurs Gate / Icewind Dale fan back in the days and I am a huge fan of the Divinity Original Sin series. So these two coming together is fantastic.

Honestly, I'm so happy I am having trouble containing my enthusiasm.

Also, I'm happy to see the franchise back in the hands of a studio that knows how to make RPGs, because I didn't really like how Beamdog treated the original games.

gangsta_red1821d ago

Absolutely agreed. It's one of those rare times when two things come together that actually makes complete sense.

Razzer1821d ago

I've actually never got around to playing Baldur's Gate, but after playing Divinity: OS and OS2, I'm going to have to bring those games to the front of my backlog to get fully prepped for BG3. To be honest, that's more a testament to the respect I have for Larian, but I can't think of anyone better suited to take on a classic IP like Baldur's Gate.

I’m glad it’s not Stadia exclusive I would have cried

Well that sucks. Seems they want more online trash. I'd rather of had the sequel if it was single player

What online trash games did PS Studios release last 10 years?

-Foxtrot15h ago

It would be a shame if it was true that Hermen never gave the franchise a chance simply because he didn't like it and they already had a "Zombie" game with TLOU.

NaughtyDog are most likely moving onto a new IP next so it would have been the perfect time to do it.

Here's where xbox steps in and releases state of decay 3 day and date on ps5.

Days gone 2 was canceled before Herman was in charge. That happened like 4 years ago.

4 years ago he was head of Playstation Studios. He would've probably had a hand in the cancelation.

Yep. Kind of weird since it wasn't a sales flop, no?

I know we have to take what Ross says with a grain of salt since we're hearing just one side of the story, but even so, the game wasn't bad at all. Heck, it's my brother's favorite last-gen game from what I recall.

The amount of zombies on screen, imagine that with the PS5 and SSD? That would be insanely fun!

Most copies were sold on sale. Not enough ppl bought it at full price. I paid 20$ for it 6 -7 months after release.

P_Bomb1h ago

Well I don’t want 10 live service games, but they have no problem doing that lol. Ugh.

Oh great so we only get what the big wigs want… y’know, the people that really have their fingers on the pulse of what their consumers want. Faaaaantastic!
