    I think it’s kinda weird how obsessed the gaming press is with Larian. I get it, they made one of the best games that released last year, but that’s not enough to make an article out of everything they say. It has been months of these articles being on my lemmy feed and they have yet to say something interesting.

      The thing is: they didn’t just make one of the best games released last year, they made one of the best games released in a decade. I, like many people, had given up hope on ever getting a game with this kind of size and quality. It’s normal that people look towards the authors of creative works with such an impact.

      On the other hand articles get made about some EA CEO asshole, some Activision CEO Asshole or some other big gaming coorp CEO asshole…

      Ngl, i much prefer to read about people that actually deserve respect instead of some greedy CEO that never touched a gamepad in their life but pretends to understand what gamers want.

      So, if i can chose between Larian commenting on Palworld, or Activision Blizzard commenting on Palword, i chose Larian every time.
