Baldur’s Gate 3 could appear in the Xbox Game Pass before the release, but Microsoft considered it a “second -rate role -playing game”

Baldur’s Gate 3 definitely became one of the biggest surprises of 2023. Despite the fact that the game from Larian Studios was available in early access for several years, fans of role -playing games rushed into forgotten kingdoms with the release of the final version of the game, which came out of the early access in August of this year on PC and in September on PS5. Even the largest companies in the industry did not expect such a sensation – Xbox representatives were of low opinion about the upcoming game

This information became known thanks to the recent leakage of Microsoft’s internal email due to its judicial lawsuit with FTC USA. According to The Verge, analyzing all documents of the technological giant, Xbox was ready to add Baldur’s Gate 3 on Xbox Game Pass in May last year, a few months before the final release on the PC. Redmond company considered the game Larian Studios "second -rate role -playing game" and Microsoft was ready to pay only $ 5 million.

Obviously, Xbox was not going to release Baldur’s Gate 3 on Xbox Series through a popular subscription service, but wanted to present a role -playing game in the PC Game Pass program designed for personal computers. Ultimately, developers from Larian Studios continue to work on "native" The version for Xbox Series, which will do without a split-scriner on the S model S and will be available until the end of 2023.

Of course, Xbox would have won if it turned on the role -playing game Larian Studios in Game Pass even before the final version of the PC, because this is a mandatory thing for any genre fan.

Aaa, but Starfield is with us "First -grade role -playing game", I understood I realized.

Accepted, I realized

here even compare it is stupid, a piece of Starfield with a full -fledged BG3, the gazebo is finished with its long -awaited toy. So compare

"They finish fans"
I correct you, don’t thank you

And what to sprinkle.BG3 early access The first act for excellent-Starfield finals g.VNO

Filka since last year plopped into a puddle, so from there it will not come out. Missing a miss, not a single successful solution. Then he has Redfol "very impressive". Then Starfail fucked game. Then pushed almost finished. Then a bald "Second -grade RPG". Loarded small staff to select, some mediocrity remained.

since last year?

So they have everything there, all black and LGBTAR transgender people.

So Xbox, in principle, had successful solutions only when they launched reverse compatibility and Gampass, 4K in the games for x360 at HOX and FPS Boost on the start of the Series. At the same time, even for these, really suitable chips of the console, no updates are already as a couple of years.

The return work has long been completed, T -shirts themselves said this.

They have long have such a style, just grinding their tongue pretending that everything goes well.

The situation with the BG3, I think such success and the high online game is anomalous (for reference, I was waiting for the game from the release of early access, I liked the game, and in general I love SRPG games, but I think this genre is accurately quite niche, well exactly the genre does not have such an audience what was online for BG3. I think the whole thing is in the stagnant industry, the absence of breakthrough and fresh ideas in the world of AAA Games. Stagnation is so strong that people for the project with a bold implementation and fresh approach were ready to overcome a high threshold of entering a step -by -step combat and DND rules even 5 editions. And as to emphasize the state of the industry, Todd Howard issues Starfield, an absolutely hacking project that has incorporated all existing "Sins" personifying this very stagnation. Here and the lack of optimization, hacks of the quests, poorly working mechanics and very strongly hazel -free procedural generation with advanposts. To emphasize degradation here is a link to the description of all procedurally generated activities in Skyrim https: // Elderscrolls.Fandom.com/ru/wiki/radiant_story in which only one of the areas of one country on one planet is displayed, special attention to the number of locations of the locations of those tied to each quest. And now look at what types of quests and in what locations the Starfield generates in which 1000 planets generate. This is just a hack. Why they could not at least repeat what they did themselves 11 years ago, on the same engine? Yes, because they decided that they are already gloating.

You say niche? BG2 and Tao are one of the best games in history so

People were just hungry for similar games, and that was a success

There is no anomaly with the BG3 – there is a degradation of the gaming industry and just stagnation in the RPG genre, even with all its frying. The huge fanbase of this genre was so bored with just good large -scale !variable! RPG AAA, which after the release of an ambiguous inquisition and subsequent failures behind the failure of this genre from the old large studios began to justify them by this year. The same Andromeda is not so bad, it is found "beautiful" In the ANTM, DA2 has its own charm, despite a bunch of mediocrity and disadvantages in it, almost any indie and b with the RPG post is absorbed, and Greedfall almost called the second DAO, they forgive everything "Sins" Svokotams with their Pathfinder, believe in Cyberpank, completely turn a blind eye to Zaruinin variability from the result of the passage of the first two witches in the third and that we play there "We" For the essence of the unified GG with hardly variable plot rails (IMHO, no offense to the fans, the game is still excellent for his lift). How, for example, they cling to the same Starfield, because mods seem to make a cult game of generations out of it over time? Yes, very much with a philosophical bias and grotesque style, the dialogue indie Disco Elysium is a game of the year and a bunch of others. related awards. How many in the last 10s were imbued with slashars and souls who liked the standard RPG, for which the threshold of entering them is also very high. And with what enthusiasm did a very mediocre remaster ME according to Fulprais accepted? For the past couple of years, I notice that quite a few people began to replay the agricultural BG1I2, Gothic, Neverwinter, Morovind, Oblivion. And Skyrim, sorry, already just "raped" mods to the point that on its basis made a fan separate game.

Ahem, in general, just since 2012. In reality, there was no RPG in terms of elaboration of DAO and ME in the AAA column, and even for Dominflyapandemic price tag of $ 60, adjusted to regional prices, without mutathenia in anti -pirate protection, open show of goods "face" (as in the good old). and t.D. IMHO – probably, but go out of the BG3, for example, in the interval of the Inquisition and the Witcher3, or in the same 2013. – It is unlikely that she would have gained such success, but rather would be largely loud "braided" ardent fans of the former BG, still very well remembered. No, BG3 is just a good, strong RPG of an old study school, which came out in scarce years for such games, so even those who are unfamiliar or do not like to step and mechanic DND played in it, although, of course, not all of them in the end. However, in Pathfinder with "Hunger" Such unloved ones also looked at, and many as a result were loved by the plot, wagging and variability, although few of them have come to terms with the battleship. I am also such an unloved, so without a twinge of conscience I played at lightweight, so as not to bother from the corner. studying mechanics and building. Just a deficit and hunger according to similar games were formed in a degrading gaming industry.

This proves that T -shirts do not understand anything at all in a game policy. So many failures at the games that they position AAA games and dark horses shoot as a result.

That’s for sure, its own HIFI Rush is prodynamili, the suitable game was released almost without marketing

I would not be surprised that right now, after the success of the BG3, Filya ordered to make all his internal studios an analogue BG3. Kui iron until it went out.))

Rather, now he will pay $ 50 million for adding to Game Pass.

specifically for me, this publisher did not find a single worthy game, Starfield shows that they did not have people who would understand how to make games, as a result, this Microsoft became a second -rate.

Well, who is now second -rate here?)

As if Tgra had 3 years old, it was clear what was the game, but Herofol about vampires was not a second -rate game for a pass? All Pass is full of second -rate games

The problem is that they themselves do not rummage for games, this is just a business for them

Put on the wrong horse .

Phil has not mastered the genre just

Yes, this is a star. I read the tables Phil. Fila’s analysts assigned Elding Rang AA, appreciated the 5KC BG3 and appreciated Mankisyrend the same at 5kc, the hand-liteau, BG3 was in early access, there was a lot of time to make a forecast, as their analytical department works. I do not know. How could Elden Rang AA be assigned (well, maybe they evaluate the state and financing) Jedi ONOW BACHNULY 300KK 🙂

Having read this analytics, as I understand it, Phil has a full mess and not only in the analytics department, just sympathize with green.

Almost everyone considered it so. Nobody expected this from the game. I thought it would be 60k online at the start. And will decline up to 10k stable.

Not because the game is bad, no. But because the genre is so. Step -by -step DND with cubes, this is a niche product.

And the fact that there was online 800k and even kept for a long time, this is a miracle for me.

And she turned out to be Starfield)

Well, Todd Howard said that he himself "Wonderful" spends time in Starfield, after that, in my opinion, everything is clear, Redfall has not taught anything.

And as usual there are no links to the original)))))

The funny one, how much did they appreciate DR Games. With such a chuyka fille, you should not play in a casino, yuz totalizers on races, make weather forecasts XD

And I still think that this is how Filya and his company began to unobtrusively try to suck on the Larias – when the game was mildly shot, and Starfield is ambiguous, I thought that something was wrong, but I didn’t think that I and some were so. right.

ahaha shallow is pierced, and the third -rate game became staterfigio)

And they themselves released the first -oriented g, oh, these T -shirts

hahahahahahah here are morons

Well, not even surprised. Typical small -laws.

I bought Skyrim?, Updated PC for 60 FPS in the game? I like the faces? There is incontinence as they have?
