You're a sell out for caring more about your blog views, not for jerking off Larian. And there's alot more to criticize them for than pr shit.
Calm down, son. Take a breath, make some tea.

Missed opportunity, truly.

I'm literally reinstalling Baldur's Gate right now. Some proper escapism from the worst timeline will help me calm down.

PR is all we had to go on for a long time. And they botched it from a veteran PoV. You can only go so far in criticizing someone for something they haven't done yet. About as far I could go was "It's better to think of what can happen rather than what has happened, but make no mistake... [Larian have sucked up to this point]."
I'll have to see the combat in action to make any determinations, but I think one thing we can all agree on is that it looks like shit.
This image is so fucking cluttered, what in gods name is even going on here? I feel claustrophobic and cramped.
Again, take a look at this image. I don't know if it's the camera angle or what, but it feels like I'm playing an MMO. Just looking at this image makes me frown. It doesn't look inviting or familiar at all.
This looks a little better but it's so zoomed in, and it feels like I'm playing Path of Exile or Diablo with all the shit on the bottom. The UI is absolutely awful.
Those fucking cock suckers. The aids Bioware chat shit? Why can't we have the old text box? This is decline of the highest order.
Same thing here. "I don't trust this man - I drew my weapon" holy shit...
I don't know why I'm so butthurt. I expected as much, there was no way this game would be anything close to as good as the original BG was. But for some reason, seeing these screenshots hurt.
I need Underrail 2 or Colony Ship ASAP to cope with the decline.

you know it's good when the zoomers are butthurt
I for one welcome Divinity: Original Sin 3. I liked the previous 2 games and this is looking like more of that.

The characters in the screenshots... they're airbrushed model cosplayers masquerading as gritty adventurers.
Oh well...

I feel like the zoomers are the ones that want everything watered down and want everything to change to suit themselves regardless of how a thing has previously been.

Why do they need 250 people if they're literally just remaking DOS2? They must be as bad at running a business as they are at making games.

Someone has to write the quirky dialogue for the animals.

Okay guys. I've calmed down a bit. I've now realised that with wrath of the rightous and the old BG games I will be able to distract myself from ever having anything to do with this absolute dog shit. What phase is acceptance again?

Don't bother with retardford. He was talking about "tears already flowing" while making 2 consecutive posts crying that some people don't like this and now keeps posting passive-aggressive shit. Just like every time he cries that there are people who don't like Oblibian.
The butthurt is severe when you have shit taste in everything.

Is that why you're always butthurt?
250pplz they couldn't draw some nice portraits. they tried to emulate bg2 look with head and shoulders + sky but it looks like ass.
ui, well I at least appreciate it's a solid bar at the bottom, similar to iwd2/pilarz.
we will be able to fuck a githyanki ima calling it.
the thing which stands outs to me is how I already cringe while looking at dialogue. sure many think bio gaydar writing is gay, but I think Larian will break the ceiling here, like they did in DOS2.
