A few weeks prior to its launch, Baldur’s Gate 3 looks like one of the most promising RPGs in recent memory. However, some devs are urging players not to rate all other games in the genre by such a high standard, appealing to Larian Studios’ unique combination of vast experience and resources.

That kind of is the new standard for AAA RPGs, though. Elden Ring is massive. Starfield is massive unless they're flat out lying. Is Final Fantasy not obscenely big? But either way, after kind of a drought, we have a bunch of really big RPGs of a bunch of different styles in reasonably quick succession.
