Actual article title is "The Secret Behind the Success of ‘Baldur’s Gate 3’"
-
Yeah, something went wrong with the way Sync autogenerated it. I'll fix it
-
No problem, it probably pulled one of the alternate titles. I've noticed that a lot when I see an article in Google News, it will have one title then when I go to the article it's a different title

I mean the first I ever heard of it was about a bear sex scene. That’s decent marketing. Makes me low-key want to try it.
I need to try the series on pc, I don’t like 1/2 on console at all.

my understanding is that BG3 is more similar to Larian's earlier games, Divinity: Original Sin 1 and 2 (which, full disclosure, I'm a big fan of). so if you want an inexpensive PC game that's likely to have a similar feel, mechanically, those games have been around a long time and are still well worth playing (if you ask me).

I’ll keep that in mind when I get back to pc gaming. It’s been such a very very long time since I played on pc, probs… 2010 or so (I stopped gaming at all for a long time, got back to it a few years ago, and took a deep dive back in the last year or so - reclamation of self 😀)
Haven’t gotten back into pc, I’ve always collected console games, because those are pretty plug and play, and as long as I maintain some very old single-purpose computers, they run flawlessly every time.
But because of major system failures, my OS has changed a few times recently, and that makes it a bit harder to maintain games. Probs need to get a single use machine with dual boot for it. And some serious old school emulators too run my win 98 games… 😁

If you're thinking of the dark alliance games, BG3 isn't related to those at all. It's the spiritual successor to Baldurs Gate II: Shadows of Amn which was only ever released on PC. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldur%27s_Gate_II:_Shadows_of_Amn.

I’m not, I made that mistake already. I really liked the dark alliance games on console.
I have the first 2 baldurs gate games on console also, ps4 specifically, because I thought they were the dark alliance games :) I was disappointed. They don’t play well on console.

Hope Xbox can consolidate further and buy them up too! Sounds great to me!

Fortunately they have no intention of selling: https://www.pcgamer.com/flush-with-the-baldurs-gate-3-vibes-larian-ceo-tells-acquisitive-corporations-to-take-a-hike-im-getting-older-but-im-certainly-not-done-yet/

Wow I hadn't seen that. Glad to see they took such a hard stance. Hopefully they can stay that way

I don’t understand this title, it’s terribly written
-
It was autogenerated via the Sync app. I'll fix it manually
