At the Penny Arcade Expo East Coast (PAX East) later this week, several gaming studios will be showing off their latest games and ideas, providing expo goers with a sneak peak into what to expect from unreleased games.
Among the gaming studios will be Ireland-based Larian Studios, which will reveal eagerly anticipated gameplay of Baldur’s Gate 3. Larian’s Creative Director Swen Vincke will be playing live on stage with a special guest, revealing more about the story, mechanics, and the answers to much-asked questions.
With seating for 1000 people, expo goers won’t have to worry about finding a space to watch, and for those at home, it will also be streamed on YouTube. Those in attendance will partake in a short, live Q&A where your questions can be asked, and answered.
For those at PAX East, Larian Studios won’t be breaking its traditions, and will be showcasing live gameplay presentations for the week, starting after the live show.
Baldur’s Gate 3 was announced back at E3 last year, and since then Larian has been continuing to grow to 350 people (including outsourcers), and working on new technology and pipelines that allow them to create a next-generation RPG, spanning 100+ hours of content, with all the depth one would expect.
Tune in on 27 February at 22:30 SAST to discover why Larian has been quiet over the past few months, and in which direction the studio is heading.
I did play BG1 and 2 a lot so hoping this will be as good!
Hard to believe the original Baldur’s Gate came out in 1998. Great game!
If they don’t turn everything gay, I’ll probably buy this.
The trend in such games is to give players romance options. So if you don’t choose that then it should be fine.
BG2 was chock full of romance options. Might have been a male homosexual one in the mix somewhere, but if you didn’t actively seek it you would never know.
As long as BG3 sticks to that - don’t see the homo and the homo won’t be shoved in your face - I’ll be fine with it. But the trend in the industry is to homosexualize everything and give the player no other option but to accept it (look at BattleTech as just one example).
