minus-squareByteOnBikes@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9arrow-down2·4 days agoYou’re not wrong at all. Baldurs Gate 3 was a surprise success. But then again, it took them many years and many Divinity games. Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk also are narrative darlings. But CD Projekt took a lot of chances over the years to get here. A bunch of my favorite heavy-story games are sitting at under 2000 steam reviews. While Meme game for Twitch Streamer hits 10k-100k reviews. I’m currently playing Shadows of Loathing right now, and I can’t believe it took me this long. Next up is Beyond Shadowgate.
