Well, those people can play Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteus, which is essentially in spirit, storytelling, world and presentation very close to original BG1 and BG2. It launched in 2021.

It's amazing that we have two great games that modernize the formula in different ways - Pathfinder showing how to do the old style with modern tech and BG3 interpreting it.

What it the point of your patronizing comment? "Those people" do play PF, PoE, Tyranny, etc. Doesn't mean we can't criticize Larian for the cash grab.

I'm not sure what's patronizing about it? We got two great games in last two years for both types of players - the ones that want old-school approach and the ones that want a modern approach. Both games are well reviewed and great to play.

And that doesn't even include all the other games you've mentioned (or Larians previous Divinity games) or Solasta or others... we're in golden age of CRPGs again.

Also, "cash grab"? Huh?
