- nottorp 3y agoCensorship doesn't only mean removing content after the fact. Could also be 'don't do that because 8% of our target market wouldn't like it' during early development or in non public versions. Or silly image stuff like car manufacturers not allowing their licensed cars to show damage in racing games. Last one is blatantly obvious, the first one, you'll never know about it because it was internal.
- dissident_coder 3y agoThe CEO has openly stated they were given full creative control of what's in the game.
- nottorp 3y agoThey all state that openly. In case of Larian it may even be true. But I still move that makes BG 3 "not indie".
- dissident_coder 3y agoWithout any evidence to suggest otherwise, it's just baseless conspiracy theory to think some "shadow figure" was secretly pulling the strings to make their preferred evil-capitalist-ideal version of BG3 (lol). BG3 is indie because they financed the game with money they raised themselves and self-published. It's that simple.
