30 mobiles games and 10 GaaS games no doubt.
Give the devs credit, there’s probably one legitimate competitor to Baldurs Gate in there that’ll get 70% through development before Hasbro kills because they need that money to pay for more Pinkertons to threaten to kill some children’s card game reviewers
Damn. I was excited before entering this post. But you’re probably right.
Thanks buzzkill.
Jk.
Hey, they have 40 shots, maybe one will hit and make something decent.
I think it’s much more likely they have 39 wastes of energy that will be sent to the void in the near future, and one chance to make something of value. At least based on what I’ve seen from these organizations in the past.
We can always hope for another Larian title using the same engine as BG3. Might happen relatively quickly.
Someone’s eager to have another BG3 on their hands. Given Hasbro’s recent moves it wouldn’t surprise me if half of these ended up being cancelled and other half were trying to squeeze as much money out of players as possible. Hasbro thinks D&D is an “under-monetized” brand after all.
And ironically, the only reason BG3 succeeded is because WOTC had nothing to do with it.
They are going to release like 40 bargain bin quality BG3 clones now, aren’t they?
I’m guessing iterations of Risk and Monopoly, but with WotC characters.
Waiting for Monopoly planeswalkers ed
I’m guessing Jace the Mindsculptor is the car.
Jace is compleated, so I doubt it.
Yeah Hasbro and WOTC have never overextended themselves before, ever. Cash cow forever yall
I think BG3 was such a hit because a) it released right around the time when D&D has become mainstream and b) it was iterated on for years in Early Access before being fully released.
I have a feeling that very few of these “40” upcoming games will hit the same chords as BG3.
I just puked…
38 are going to be scrapped within the first few months of each other
If Paizo can sustain 3 games based on Pathfinder/Golarion, WotC can sustain 40 based on D&D/Forgotten Realms. Will any of them be any good? Ehh
They should license the IP to Paradox for a Crusader Kings set in Faerun/Toril
