Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian studios is due to come out on PS5 and PC in August.

The early access version of the game has overall been great and there's a lot of excitement around the game.

I came across this article:
Why devs consider Baldur’s Gate 3 anomaly, not new standard for RPG genre: “It’s Rockstar-level nonsense for scope” | Game World Observer

Where some devs believe BG3's level of quality is not a standard that should be applied going forward, I was surprised to hear Josh Sawyer echoing similar thoughts considering Obsidian has the resources of Microsoft.

What do you guys think? Is it unreasonable to expect this level of quality from CRPGs or games in general going forward?

 

I mean, I'm not saying that the game is not gonna be great, but I would like to point out that scope ≠ quality. We have seen many developers falling into that trap before thinking that "more" equals "better".
