And here comes the defenders.

Sure, ignore that GoG is also more generous with their cuts than steam, and continue suckling on the teat of the fortnite guys who treat their employees like shit while you pretend to care about devs.



I said nothing of GoG, but keep continuing to make assumptions.

Quit being stupid.

STEAM shouldn't be trusted (if you all care to look into that).

But epic should be? Really?

If you care to recall STEAM was in the same position as EPIC way back in the day, I'm surprised how you all forgotten that.

And now STEAM is back to where it was years ago.

No, you quit trying to defend epic, which has literally been in trouble for poor treatment of its employees recently, as if theyre somehow better than steam. My post literally only mentioned that it was good it wasn't epic exclusive, and you took issue with that.

Epic shouldn't be defended whatsoever, they're a shit company to their people.

If anything Valve treats their employees TOO well considering how laid back the company is overall. There's been stories about it.

You're trying too hard. You're making absolutely no counterpoints, nor explaining your point of view, and are instead simply making vague tinfoil hat comments and defending literal epic games.

I'm questioning whether or not you all care how much a developer gets when hosting a game because far as I know STEAM users made a shitfit about it.

No, we all know how shit steam is to developers. Steam is pretty shit in general.

But epic is arguably worse right now. They treat employees horribly, their store doesn't even have a shopping cart, and it'll lock your account for purchasing too many games in a row during their sale, because, you know, no shopping cart.

Epic launcher/store is hot garbage. Fucking uplay has a shopping cart. So does origin. Origin fuckin launched with a shopping cart.

Epic still doesn't have one.

Then don't say anything at all. I understand if someone is frustrated but if you're going to start a discussion, why not be chill about it and actually discuss? Otherwise it's just a bunch of shitposting on both sides and derailing a topic that isn't even about that.

In terms of not being Epic exclusive, it's Larian's own decision, as the developer, and at the very least that decision should be respected.

I'll take your word for it, but there is been so many rumors about EPIC that I found it hard to see which is honestly was real or not.

Long you all acknowledge there is trouble in STEAM that I honestly believe customers need to forcibly change their culture, GoG on the other hand has never had any real issues.

I can understand your point being a huge fan as you mentioned. I had honestly not even given that bit any thought honestly. I just saw baldur's gate 3 and larian and I was on board, mostly because of how much I loved BG2 and original sin 2, but I didn't first play the baldur's gate games until like 6 years ago.

Also I don't like automatic love for STEAM, and customers just pretending everything is fine.

I get it. One can post the most innocent shit here, like "I like cauliflower" and it's basically guaranteed you'll get at least one person trolling your ass. Not to say that anyone in this convo was trolling, just a sincere argument that didn't really go anywhere. I'm just saying we can only do our best to control how we ourselves react as well as do our best to not help add to the majority of crap that's on the GameFAQs boards is all.

You have a valid point that Epic isn't alone in having issues--Steam does as well, just different ones.

Tbqh, I want some more DnD mythos based games period. I went through a binge some years back where I played bg1, 2, their expansions, then ice wind Dale 1 and 2, then neverwinter nights 1 and 2. I just love the lore in that world. Mask of the betrayer in nwn2 and throne of bhal in BG2 are some of my favs

I really hope blackguard will be an advanced class in BG3. I loved the whole concept of being a lawful evil dark paladin lol

I think there was another deity that was kind of Cthulhu based, but it was regarded too dangerous among the gods of both good and evil and its trapped within a planar prison. Though I can't imagine them using that one since it's danger level would be too high for a DnD video game unless they pull a miracle kill.

I heard it is tied to the tabletop campaign stories surrounding baldur's gate. Illithid invasion isn't anywhere in there though, so as far as we know, it is continuing the timeline of the tabletop setting, along with tabletop materials being released, before or after the videogame.

I don't really have an opinion on the name. Brand is important so I don't have a problem with keeping the Baldur's Gate name while it doesn't have to do with the Bhaalspawn.

Also I need to replay BG2 before this is out. Pretty excited~! Also I'm pretty..I don't know, proud I guess? Of Larian getting a hold of this. I expect great things from these guys at this point.

All good. I've said and reacted waaay worse in my years here, heh. :(
Steam does get a lot of love, but they've been around for a long time now and at this point they're not just a game store but a community as well. They don't deserve 100% love but probably with all this Epic stuff going on, people are more on the extreme end of things trying to defend their own side. Personally I think competition is healthy and Epic should compete, but legitimately, and not by buying game exclusives while having a really questionable store with very little features. They have more than enough money to do it properly.

Looks like it's going to be GoG.

As for what game we're doing, well that's our secret. You'll all know years from now.

I don't really have an opinion on the name. Brand is important so I don't have a problem with keeping the Baldur's Gate name while it doesn't have to do with the Bhaalspawn.

Also I need to replay BG2 before this is out. Pretty excited~! Also I'm pretty..I don't know, proud I guess? Of Larian getting a hold of this. I expect great things from these guys at this point.

Fine, I'll conduct myself a bit better next time. I just don't like the love Steam gets as of recently, I didn't hate them in the past but they're getting too greedy for their own good.

All good. I've said and reacted waaay worse in my years here, heh. :(
Steam does get a lot of love, but they've been around for a long time now and at this point they're not just a game store but a community as well. They don't deserve 100% love but probably with all this Epic stuff going on, people are more on the extreme end of things trying to defend their own side. Personally I think competition is healthy and Epic should compete, but legitimately, and not by buying game exclusives while having a really questionable store with very little features. They have more than enough money to do it properly.

Tbqh I 100% bet it was because of original sin 2 that they were able to get to make this game. Os2 took the rpg world by storm, garnering modest success on not only pc but both consoles as well, and they garnered a reputation for quality and reminded a lot of people of early Bioware.

I'm happy for them, honestly.

I still need to get their games, I've been slacking on that.
