Adam Smith in gaming news

Larian gave Baldur's Gate 3 its acclaimed reactivity by approaching it as 'weird Dungeon Masters'

There are plenty of things to love about Baldur's Gate 3, from the way its tactical battles never feel like filler to the best-in-class performances that bring its characters to life. But what marks it out from almost every other RPG, especially those that take 60+ hours to play, is its reactivity. Events and lines of dialogue are constantly referencing specific things you did and said earlier on, choices you made all the way back to the character creation screen, without ever making you feel like it's cheating by collapsing the possibilities down to a more manageable number.

Baldur's Gate 3 devs love the Ultima RPGs, and boss Swen Vincke says "never say never" on Larian reviving the series

While Baldur's Gate 3 is blazing a trail for RPGs still to come after an incredibly successful 2023, it owes quite a bit to the old-school RPG series Ultima, which isn't actually out of the realm of possibilities for a future Larian project.

Lincoln Carpenter - Adam Smith - At PAX West, perennial mad lad Swen Vincke once again said Baldur's Gate 3 was somehow going to be even bigger: 'In our heads, we were going to have so many more regions to make' - pcgamer.com

At PAX West, perennial mad lad Swen Vincke once again said Baldur's Gate 3 was somehow going to be even bigger: 'In our heads, we were going to have so many more regions to make'

Baldur's Gate 3 is big—so big that, according to a message I sent in a Discord group chat in August of 2023, it took me sixty hours just to confirm that the city of Baldur's Gate was, in fact, in the game. Yet despite BG3's playtime clocking in at a week's worth of waking hours, Larian CEO Swen Vincke keeps finding new ways to explain that, impossibly, Baldur's Gate 3 was originally going to be even bigger.

Joshua Wolens - Adam Smith - Baldur's Gate 3's bear sex scene was such an 'upward turn in momentum for the game' that its animator called his mum to show it off: 'She was like, that's weeeird!' - pcgamer.com

Baldur's Gate 3's bear sex scene was such an 'upward turn in momentum for the game' that its animator called his mum to show it off: 'She was like, that's weeeird!'

Baldur's Gate 3 is resoundingly, terrifyingly, bone-quakingly popular. Why? Well, there's its deep and rewarding RPG mechanics, its cast of fascinating characters, and the historically high score it got in PC Gamer's Baldur's Gate 3 review. But mostly it's the bear sex.

Larian Studios explain how the infamous bear scene changed perceptions toward Baldur's Gate 3: "We got banned on TikTok!"

A year on from the blockbuster success of Baldur's Gate 3, the team at Larian Studios have reminisced about the game's infamous bear nookie scene and how it changed people's perceptions on what the hell Baldur's Gate 3 was all about.

Ted Litchfield - Adam Smith - Swen Vincke was worried that the 100-hour Baldur's Gate 3 would be too short, which is why Larian made a ton of extra areas they wound up cutting: 'I've notoriously always been bad at judging the length of our games' - pcgamer.com

Swen Vincke was worried that the 100-hour Baldur's Gate 3 would be too short, which is why Larian made a ton of extra areas they wound up cutting: 'I've notoriously always been bad at judging the length of our games'

In a new BAFTA video interview, Larian CEO Swen Vincke revealed that he was actually worried Baldur's Gate 3 wouldn't be long enough, an anxiety that's pretty rich in hindsight, given that some players struggle to finish the marathon RPG. Vincke revealed this old fear as a partial explanation for why Baldur's Gate 3 has so many tantalizing cut areas, while also describing one such zone we hadn't heard about before: a second Moonrise Tower to go with the one we saw in Act Two.

Harvey Randall - Adam Smith - The lead writer of Baldur's Gate 3's Dark Urge was extremely squeamish at first, which shows you can do just about anything if you set your mind to it - pcgamer.com

The lead writer of Baldur's Gate 3's Dark Urge was extremely squeamish at first, which shows you can do just about anything if you set your mind to it

Baldur's Gate 3's Dark Urge is a major highlight of the story—putting the player character in the role of a barely-composed murderer with the choice to either lean into, or away from, the urge to slaughter.

The performer for Baldur's Gate 3's smooth-talking devil, Raphael, thought the RPG was a musical

Andrew Wincott's BAFTA award winning performance as Raphael, one of Baldur's Gate 3's most entertaining villains, was one of the RPG's many highlights. He also famously gave us one of the game's most memorable musical numbers when he sang his own boss theme at the end of the House of Hope dungeon. It turns out, though, that this performance also gave him the wrong impression of what the game was all about.

Fraser Brown - Adam Smith - Baldur's Gate 3 was so big that Larian has developed a 'Simpsons did it' problem: 'Whenever we're talking about things, we say we did that in BG3' - pcgamer.com

Baldur's Gate 3 was so big that Larian has developed a 'Simpsons did it' problem: 'Whenever we're talking about things, we say we did that in BG3'

Larian is following up Baldur's Gate 3 with not one but two new RPGs. And, unsurprisingly, they'll likely be big 'uns. That's just Larian's style, but it does come with some problems, especially when they're following a game as massive and elaborate as Baldur's Gate 3.
