I'll purchase video games from whatever studio Sven leads grin , if it continues to be Larian, all the better. Speaking as someone who absolutely knows what it's like to be treated like a number on a spreadsheet, I certainly hope Sven's view on the gaming industry makes some game development houses rethink their approach.

Larian boss Swen Vincke calls out pretty much the entire videogame industry at The Game Awards

I agree! I still have a hard copy of my original Divine Divinity manual, and I remember the intro in it having such great spirit and enthusiasm. It always makes me smile. wave

I agree with what he said, of course. But the rub is that doing the things he described is HARD. Even if a studio has the best intentions towards players, employees, etc., it still may not make good games. If it were so easy to do, 90% of all the games out there would be great. But as we know, just like in life in general, most things in gaming are [blip].

Larian has made some wonderful games.


I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.
