Baldur's Gate 3 - Interview @ PC Gamer

PC Gamer interviewed Larian:

For the first anniversary of Baldur's Gate 3, we talk to Larian about how it reinvented itself, why it scrapped its plans for Baldur's Gate 4, and what the future holds

From failure, to reinvention, to Baldur's Gate and beyond.

It's early July, almost a year since Larian launched Baldur's Gate 3 - a year in which the studio has collected a vast number of awards and accolades for its monumental RPG - and the team has swapped the Forgotten Realms for the swelteringly hot Spanish city of Barcelona. Larian is here to discuss its next game behind closed doors. A couple of days ago, on July 8, it held a summit to talk about kicking off a new RPG. "Lift off," as CEO Swen Vincke puts it. 

With its 97% score, Baldur's Gate 3 became the highest-scoring game in PC Gamer UK's 30-year history. At the time, we called it "an unrivalled RPG that will swallow your life whole". And for an entire year, it has. 

There's the crackle of electricity in the air, not because a dragonborn sorcerer has just cast chain lightning, but because the team is about to set off on a brand new adventure. Larian's developers are now spread all over, including Dublin, Ghent, Warsaw, and here in Barcelona, where so many of them have gathered. Much of the excitement, then, is also down to a lot of them being in one place, rather than distributed across the world.
