I don't mean to single you out, as these games are (probably) going to be awesome. I've played Cyberpunk, and I'll almost certainly play Baldur's Gate 3.
But isn't it interesting that 3 of the 5 games you've mentioned are sequels, and one of the remaining ones is part of a well-established formula?

- lelandfe 4y agoI wouldn't consider Baldur's Gate 3 a sequel in any meaningful way beyond its name.
- peterashford 4y agoI would. The engine is clearly hugely upgraded and they've definitely added a lot to the formula, but they've also kept a lot about what people loved of the original games. I'm really looking forward to the final release
- lelandfe 4y agoHuh, I don't see any of the original in it. Aesthetics, gameplay, and even tone of the game are all way more Divinity than anything Black Isle ever made. What of the originals do you still see in Larian's new one?
- peterashford 4y agoHmmm.... I played through both Baulder's Gate, BG2 and a bunch of the associated games - Icewind Dale etc. Had a very familiar feel to me. Obviously your milage varies
