They have already made it clear they are developing their own & have two games in early development now.
That’s why I specified in the video that this is more a list of franchises that I want to see get a CRPG from a company as talented and passionate as Larian, not necessarily Larian themselves.
damn, i'm not even a big A:TLA fan, but an rpg would be sick as hell. i've always liked the idea of instead of having tons of classes, you have a few that are highly customizable andA:TLA would be a great way to bring that to fruition
and i knew it was gonna be fallout cause that's what i REALLY want. Larian would KILL a fallout game so hard. Fallout has so much potential for BG3 level character driven stories and i really wish bethesda had taken it in that direction.. unfortunately i don't think bethesda has the writing chops to pull it off
Pathfinder 2e, DOS3, Shadowrun, Cyberpunk Red, Icewind Dale 3.
I 100% agree on the Starfinder idea, it's so flexible and adaptable to many story telling ideas, fantasy/sci-fi in either direction and can be adjusted to taste. I can only wonder if they do give the green light whether they would use the current edition or see how the soon to be playtested 2nd edition goes.
The One Ring RPG has all the Mechanics you need for a LOTR CRPG. Plus Paizo and Games Workshop are both going with Owlcat games for their IP RPGs
@04:30 Yeah, I was thinking along the lines of Phantasy Star/PSO. Much along the same lines.
I would like Larian to try their hand at the horror or mystery genres, but if Larian made Kotor 3 then I would probably die of happiness. Generic sci-fi would be awesome as well. An Avatar game set in the time before 'the fire benders attacked' would be one of the best things ever created!
There are so many worlds I'd love to see a Larian style CRPG in, like Elder Scrolls, Diablo, Warcraft, Star Wars (based on the TTRPGs), or other TTRPG settings like Shadowrun or Blades in the Dark.
It's a damn shame that it's so hard for a large company like Blizzard to be hands-off and just trust Larian as much as Larian has proven they deserve to be.
Just make another divinity original sin games.
Whatever they make next, I’ll be playing them
Nothing like this is happening. Larian does not want to work with publishers anymore. That's it. They want to do their own IPs. So better hope Owlcat is willing.
I'd like Larian to create a descent Shadowrun Game. Let D&D and Cyberpunk have a lovechild......
Larian has the talent and the vision that they do not need other IPs, I say let them make there own.
Oh for sure, hence why I made the distinction that it doesn’t *need* to be Larian making these games, but a studio with as much passion and talent as they have to make a CRPG
Fallout, Elder Scrolls, Star Wars, maybe even Diablo. All these games would 100% benefit from other teams being given the chance to take a known franchise and breathe new life into it. Unfortunately that's as likely to happen as it is to get rain blood from a stone.
Unfortunately, we can only dream.
dos 3 you forgot
PC 3 years old and couldn't run BG3 - I played it on a laptop with a Nvidia 1070 I bought in 2016 after I was no longer able to have a desktop PC I built myself - Was it on full high/ultra graphics not but hight enough it still looked good.
The narrative that you need the very latest PC hardware to play new games is crap, we're PC gamers we can eek out every bit of power and performance from our hardware we improve and adapt, it's part of what is great about being a PC gamer. Maybe I'm wrong and things have changed since I started, since I was building my PC and in awe putting that Voodoo2 graphics card in, or later getting one of the greatest bang per buck graphics cards released in the ATI Radeon X1950XT.
Apologies and rant over -
Vampire : The Masquerade would be fantastic
Haven’t had the opportunity to play it yet, but once I find a group for sure I will
I agree with all these 100% bro
You need to play Larian's other games so you get a feel on what their next game might be like. DOS2 is especially good if you like turned based combat.
Top 5 would probably be 1) Fallout 2) SW Kotor 3) Vampire the Masquerade 4) Shadow Run 5) Starfinder Fallout would be great with the current hype and to go back to its roots especially since the Fallout 76 backlash.
That’s a great list. Fortunately 76 seems to be better now, but these things should be good at launch, not years later after copious merch controversies
HELL YEAH! *Star Wars* would be great, as Larian has this habit to allow to play with less Chars but getting a Boost in Power - so instead 4 Jedi, you can play with 2 Sith via "Lone Wolf"!
FUCKYEAH!
And *Shadowrun* would be great to see - but please, ffs, not SR6 or 4. Use 3 or maybe 5 for that. Stick to the Rules, the Modifieres, Cover Options etc. Be better than Harebrained Schemes (which did VERY GOOD imho - but "Solo" and no Multiplayer).
Be inspired even by Boston Chronicles Multiplayer where Chars could visit other Chars and thus "getting pulled through" was an Option, but rareley done and the "Just taking Missions but also having a Stopryline as well" was some Option.
*LotR* has a TTRPG-System already and it is a pretty well done one - kinda for the *Fallout* Series basically having TTRPG-Rules in the first two Games (D100-System).
[Edit] I still use the VATS-System in the Games and less the Shooter. And when you develop a Game you can play as the "classic RPG" but also zoom in and then steer the Chars via WSAD, the usage of VATS would be no problem - see *Valkyria Chronicles* who did that. So you can use the same Systems but just use different Perspectives.
Dragon Lance will be fun, so many book about this world, also the best game they can make will be a Fallout ish game like Fallout 1 and 2 but even better
Saying that larian made this game out of nowhere is insanely disingenuous
Out of nowhere to the general population who had never heard of them before. They went from a few notable games to Game of the Year in the most competitive year in the history of gaming for that award.
@@MitchMyester DOS:2 was the most popular crpg before bg3 release and it peaked at 90k players on steam on release. For comparison Witcher 3 (2015 goty) peaked 100k. Anyone who was somewhat involved and interested in rpgs either knew that game or heard about it.
Edit: after double checking some data noticed that Witcher actually reached that peak during not on release but in 2020
That’s all well and good, and true DOS2 was great, but hearing about the game is different than knowing who made it.
Either way, it’s always a huge win when a privately owned studio gets this much love and recognition
I'd rather see Larian do their own thing to be honest. But I'd enjoy seeing them make a game based on the ruleset of pathfinder 2nd edition or if they had to reuse a franchise, I'd agree with Fallout. Put Fallout back to its top down golden age.
The *only* reason they did someone else's IP is simple. Free advertising, and getting their name and reputation solidified with their target market.
Goal met.
They have the money to do new projects.
Their reputation is as solid as bedrock.
However, going through the hoops and limitations of working someone else's IP again, *when they no longer gain anything from that* instead of their *own* stuff that they control, and have no limits on ould be a massively stupid move on their part.
They don't need anyone else's ideas or worlds.
MUCH rather see what people this creative can do when taken off the leash.
Fallout for sure.I dont like to latest Fallout entries because as an Rpg feel so plain also world become less grim.Larian can make a Fallout game close to Fallout 1 and 2.
Dragon are made by LARIAN
Cyberpunk, Larian woulda done CP far better justice than the abomination CDPR turned it into. As someone who played the tabletop CP its insulting how CDPR practically spat all over the universe and the term 'RPG'
Isn't Cyberpunk 2077 supposed to be good now, though?
@@MitchMyester if we're talking about technical stability a.k.a bug and glitch fixes sure, if we're talking about it being an RPG? HELL NO. CP2077 is the worst RPG ever made, especially when u compare it to CDPR's previous game; Witcher 3
@@GenericUsername-qp1ww I haven't played much of 2077, I'm currently on a big Fallout run myself.
Final Fantasy Tactics 2
Fallout topdown
CRPG is complicated because it's actually 2 terms. As a genre it means Classic RPG, not computer. They both use the same aconym but the 'computer' version wasn't a genre, it was to differentiate from pen and paper RPGs back in the 80s and somewhat in the 90s, 'classic' is a far later term from around the 2000s for the genre of games either from or harkening back to the older style of RPG, like Fallout 1 & 2 and Baldur's Gate, to differentiate them from the many other styles of computer RPG that were around by then.
I agree we need new CRPG LotR and Star Wars games but I don't think Larian are the ones, I would love Obsidian to make them considering how well they did at SW:KotOR 2 and New Vegas. We have CRPG Fallout games still coming out, the series is called Wasteland and Wasteland 2 is one of the best CRPGs ever made. Fallout 1 actually started as a legally distinct Wasteland 2 when but the company making it lost the licence so they renamed it Fallout and filed of the serial numbers. Wasteland 3 is also excellent and only came out in 2020, it's not perfect but it does have co-op.
Owlcat are incredible and will do a great job with Starfinder when they inevitably make one like they did with their 2 Pathfinder games and Rogue Trader. All 3 of their games are well worth playing and honestly while BG3's character writing is better the actual game mechanics of Wrath of The Righteous is better than BG3.
I don't think Larian should adapt anything. I think they should either use the Divinity universe to make a response to The Elder Scrolls, or make a true open world CRPG. No-one makes games like Bethesda, and while there are responses they are never to Bethesda's scale. Larian is one of the few publishers who are big enough, have a clear enough leadership vision, and have the writing ability to be able to make something that huge and make player choice actually feel like choices rather than pick a side of a civil war and then be told which dungeons to kill things in until their picked side wins.
After Baldur's Gate, I believe they will adapt Neverwinter Nights 3 since it's set in the same universe and it's high chance they will do it.
Unfortunately they’ve ultimately confirmed that what they’re working on isn’t related to D&D/Forgotten Realms
