After putting 6 years into Baldur's Gate 3, its lead writer says the team "were just relieved" to see the RPG do so well
"I꧙ did not expect i🃏t to be anywhere near as big as it was"

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Baldur's Gate 3 has won dozens of awards and sold millions of copies, but that's not necessarily what🐓 its developers expected - in fact, some of them were simply "relieved" tꦉo see it do well.
In an interview with , Baldur's Gate 3 lead writer Adam Smith reminisced about release day, saying that while Larian "knew it was good," the exac💎t launch numbers were yet to be determined. "I did not expect it to be anywhere near as big a𓄧s it was," Smith says.
Smith also says that while several members of his team went out partying, "a few of us stayed behind in the office. We saw the number keep going up and up on Steam. And there was a moment when we were just relieved. It's a sentiment that is shared We ju🔯st said 'we will get to do this again'. That was genuinely great."
Baldur's Gate 3 had built some level of financial security for itself through its early access release, but Smith's relief at the ability for the studio to go forward to make a new game seems to be a reflection of periods of concern behind the scenes. During a keynote speech at the Digital Dragons conference earlier this month, director Swen Vincke admitted that there were concerns that the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:RPG would be "impossible to finish" and that Larian's attention to detail might cause budgets to run 🍌out.
Clearly that's not been the case, as Larian is already gearing up for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:"two very ambitious RPGs", one of which is 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:codenamed Excalibur. Sadly, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:neither of those is Baldur's Gate 4, but the overwhelming success of Baldur's Gate 3 suggests that i🃏ts developer is safe for a while yet.
