GS: "We sat down with Swen Vincke, head of Larian Studios, and talked all things Baldur's Gate 3 and D&D to find out everything we could about the upcoming, ambitious RPG."
With Kojima gone, a lot is riding on Konami's revival of Metal Gear.
Not really, Konami is basically in name only and like so many other Japanese studios that have come and gone they are just going to be an IP troll and milk that cow until it is dry. Also one of the advertised features is playing the game from a different camera view while everything else remains the same will just result in making the game easier like what happened with Twin Snakes.
When are people going to learn that all Konami is doing with these games Is licensing them out? They are not trying to revive their game development Branch and they are not the ones developing this. It is studios that came to them and asked to use the license to make a game and they have been doing this pretty much since MGSV
Remaking all his work reaks of desperation. The only reason they are getting away with it is everyones deep love for the series. If delta is successful (which as of right now it should be), they'll be sure to remake all of them.
Big shoes to fill, and compared to SH2 - this is as much a 1:1 remake as you can get. You can still see the PS2 bones in the movements and how the cutscenes have the same angles. If anything, I'd have preferred the reverse.... with SH2 being closer to a 1:1 remake but prettier, and have MGS3 have a little more freedom.
Ideally, MGS3 with a MGSV skin in terms of gameplay and freedom of approach. This is more like a high budget remaster than a remake. Having recently replayed the Bluepoint remaster, this is going to be like that same experience but even prettier.
But, as with both MGS3 and SH2, nearly impossible shoes to fill if not outright so. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Such is the legacy of these GOAT titles.
It's a one to one remake, using the same voice recordings too. Not a reimagining, no new content thus far announced, just a straight remake of a game that already exists, but now with prettier graphics. There's no revival, they proved they can't make anything related to MG after Survival. They'll just remake all the games and people will eat it up.
Two actors from Baldur's Gate 3 explain how they shot *that* scene with The Emperor, and how it broke the ice on the first day of filming.
We have the ten finalists for Develop:Brighton’s Indie Showcase competition right here, so take a look ahead of the event next month.
Excited for this. I hope it turns out good.
This game is going to be a huge event. I know it.
The title says it aims to do what no other RPG does but he only says that briefly and gives no examples and no follow up question was asked (in print anyway). I’m interested obviously but the title makes you believe that it will be explained or at least talked about a little but nada.
“Aims to do what jonother rpg has”

Larian and Baldur's Gate should be a magic combination. My friend actually messaged me, telling me they announced Baldur's Gate 3. I was instantly dreading seeing what developer may have been tied with it, what with Obsidian and inXile being MS 1st party now.
Was not expecting Larian, but thrilled that they were given the title.
