This is a really good interview. tl;dw is…
- their next game was going to be D&D, but they changed course and are doing something else now
- Vincke has a vision for “the one RPG to rule them all”, and each of their past three RPGs is a step closer to it
- the next game is not going to be that master vision but one step closer toward it, with their previous 3 RPGs proving out emergent design/multiplayer, story and consequence, and personal stories/performance capture, respectively
- Vincke would like to have this next game done in 3 years compared to BG3’s 6 year development cycle, but realistically expects 4 years, as long as there isn’t something like COVID-19 or a war in Ukraine to impede their progress
I missed it, but is another Gamergate starting? What’s the TLDR?

Sorry, I am now blind from the eye rolling into the back of my skull. Cannot wait for the anti-woke bullshit to come out on this one.
Uglifcation of women in games, currently plus other shit. Also no more tomb raiding in tomb raider, Lara’s a truth seeker now. lol just another example of a franchise being sacrificed at the alter.
