Baldur‘s Gate 3 is from Larian Studios, for those who don‘t know.

And the older folks like me predicted that this will be the fate of Bioware when they sold themselves out.

Scared me when they opened with "Bauldur's gate" and then realized that Larian is doing fine.

The bloated corpse that brought you the massive flops Anthem, Dragon Age Failguard, Mass Effect 3, etc is dead.

I think the original ending put off a lot of people but it was otherwise a great time.

I mean TOR, ME2, and DA:O came out years after the EA buyout, their best years were arguably right after being bought out.

It wasn't until ME3 that a crack showed, and the biggest problem with it was writing like with every BioWare game afterwards.

Bioware made Baldurs Gate 1 and 2. The 2nd of which was better imo than 3.

2 definitely better than 3, but it's hard to compare.

Agreed but that was about 25 years ago

That is a very unpopular opinion.
