I don’t believe that, half of Baldur success was because it was Baldur and gained massive hype for that. Larian’s credit was delivering to that hype (mostly), but if you were following the development, literally the main fear from fanbase was precisely because it was Larian making that - Divinity 2 was very far from universal acclaim in the niche. And this here look extremely suspicous even if it was just about the next game, but no DLC, no expansions, not to mention that continuing the success is an 1st iron commandment in entire industry, nobody stops doing that unless there is no possibility.
There’s a lot going inside we don’t know because no company would just release such turbulences publicly.
I think the company sees this as an opportunity to use the spotlight they now have to publicize their own IP. I suppose we can only wait and see what they do next.
Hell even the super successful Baldur 3 is apparently not successful enough to have further development.
?
Larion Studios is still doing fine. They’ve decided to pursue their own IP rather than continue to work with a 3rd party’s.
Maybe, or maybe not.
