I could see it. Owlcat has said they’re not interested in making PF2 games (probably because they’re strange people who actually like designing games around 3.X charop), so why shouldn’t Larian step in to do it instead?

There could be a thousand reasons, really. Although a huge lol if Larian does end up making a PF2e CRPG. I would quite possibly die from sheer bliss if that happens.

It's very funny Larian is framing it that way, when I'm willing to bet almost anything it is talks breaking down with WotC over money such as cost and how much WotC rent seeks.

God, if only. There was a big push for everyone to switch to Pathfinder after the OGL debacle that died as soon as BG3 dropped, so this would be huge

I must admit while I have enjoyed a few of Larian's pre-BG3 games, I enjoyed BG3's 5E implementation more than the mechanics in DOS1&2 and Divinity games' worldbuilding and storytelling has always felt like a slurry of generic videogame-y fantasy bullshit. I just went to their wiki to refresh myself on the plots of the games I've played and Larian please just start a new IP or license something actually good again, please.

Subjunctive posted:

I don’t know if Larian can actually build a good world, but they certainly have the resources now to try a bunch of stuff and render that world with exceptionally high fidelity once they settle on one they like.

These posts are where I'm at on it. Divinity's mechanics were neat, but the writing in those games turned me off so hard that I refused to believe BG3 could be good until it became clear that they had actually taken the world they were working with seriously. I'm happy for Larian to escape what is very likely a toxic relationship with WotC, but I can't help but think that Larian was restrained by working in the Forgotten Realms and with a third party that could lasso them away from more panty jokes, and that was probably good for the finished product. Whatever they make next is going to be Maximum Larian, unconstrained, and I am certain it's going to be winking at the audience constantly.

For me, the dream Larian licence would actually be Infinity (just so I can actually play a Muslim), and if they're going original IP, which I hope they are, then some sci-fi thing would be great.

This is, sadly, more important to me than bettering myself.

I could see Larian getting the rights to Shadowrun and all the money Larry Coleman has on him in exchange for Larian writing a functional and edited Shadowrun 7e that Catalyst can print immediately.

In fact, don't worry about the editing! The fans won't notice the difference.
