You can feel the love when you play their games. I’m old. I remember Baldurs Gate, Icewind Dale. Neverwinter Nights when it first hit, how big it was, how large the following was.

Playing Divinity OS was the first game in a while that had a love of RPG feels to it of yore. No surprise that they landed BG3.

Divinity was also a masterpiece, in my opinion, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who enjoyed BG3.

Didn't know they also did Divinity!

Their games aren't in my style but you can tell how much passion they put into them. I'd love having Larian to revive the old RPG genre and it's level of worldbuilding. BG3-tier writing is sadly absent from many modern games.
