BG3 is confirmed past 3m sell through now:

Last year, there were 13 million players who owned a game with 'CRPG' as one of its top 10 tags on Steam (effectively, 13 million people owned a CRPG). As of this side of 2023, there's now 16 million.

like 6 days to release.
Hopefully it has a good launch, sales wise as well.
I would like to a crpg actually break 10m units sold...

That would be awesome, and grant so much more credibility and attention towards the genre. For me, there's no other type of game that comes close when it comes to immersion, sheer scope, and that glorious mix of tactics and action. With more modern engines and physics, things can only improve on the immersion side of things. The use of physics and environments in Divinity: Original Sin 2 was far and away the best implementation of these mechanics I ever saw, and the most awesome use of interactive environments since I played Half-Life 2.
