Divinity: Original Sin's story was done in "three days or something," but the Baldur's Gate 3 team now "spend years discussing story and trying to develop characters"
Larian Studios is now several🌠 times larger than it was during its Kickstarter🐎 era

Larian Studios can now spend years hammering away at a game's story and characters since 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Baldur's Gate 3 ear☂ned a pretty penny for the studio - a stark contrast to theꦦ Divinity: Original Sin era where the team only had a couple of days.
When talking about 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:some of the studio's lowest points in an interview with , Larian CEO and Baldur's Gate 3 director Swen Vincke said the team couldn't execute everything it wanted to in its games "because we were too small." Based on Vincke's "guesstimates," the first Divinity: Original Sin had about 40 developers, the sequel had around "120-ish," and after 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:opening a seventh studio recently, it's now "approa🌟ching 500" employees. Baꦐldur's Gate 3 money, see.
Before employing h🔴undreds of developers across the world, Vincke would apparently tell the team that "'If we do one thing right, it has to be the combat, and you have to be able to play it with your friends.'" He even goes🔯 as far as calling Divinity: Original Sin's story "really tacked on" since it was developed in "like three days or something."
Thankfully, the crowdfunded game was a major success, p💙rompting Vincke and the team to iron out other areas in future games. "Now we spend years discussing story and trying to developer cha🐎racters," he continued, which is very evident when looking at Baldur's Gate 3's extensive early access stay.
That'll probably also mean that we won't hear about Larian's next two unnamed games for a while, as the studio only just moved on from its now-cancelled Baldur's Gate 3 DLC and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:closed thꦗe door on a potential Baldur's Gate 4.
