Former GTA dev congratulates "bold" Larian Studios for stepping away from Baldur's Gate 3
Why take a risk? With development cycles and budgets ballooning in recent years, a flop of a game could spell doom for a studio. If you're the size of Bethesda or CD Projekt Red, you can spend years rebuilding trust with a series of updates to Starfield and Cyberpunk 2077, but for smaller studios commercial failure could be a death sentence. That's why former Grand Theft Auto developer Obbe Vermeij has gone on the record to congratulate Larian on its "bold" decision to step away from the Dungeons and Dragons license and Baldur's Gate series.
