    And why the fuck would so many gods and demi-gods care about this single city? That feels like these movies where it’s all about New-York and nothing else matters.

    The question is also about what you want at this point: do you want finely crafted tactical encounters? Or do you want to play demi-gods bringing chaos on the mortal worlds?

    Another way to put it is what’s the point of tier3 and 4 if you want the same things than tier2 but with bigger numbers?

    The universe of dnd has unbounded magic. Myrkul, Baine and Bhaal were mortals who went to a god and took its power. It’s hard to account for something like that in an openworld.

    Divinity original sin 2 did exactly this, but then 2 things are different : the story was about this right from the start, and the universe doesn’t have the kind of magic dnd has.

    Finally I think larian talked about it, and they didn’t say it was impossible, but that it was a different beast to tackle. They probably would have needed much more time and budget for higher tiers. And probably a different story.

      Well that went from 0 to a hundred real quick. I’m not sure why wanting BG3 with a level cap 20 gets your goat like that.

      All I was saying is that it’s doable and it worked great in pathfinder WotR, and that I would love to see Larian have a crack at it. It’s not a diss on BG3 or anything like that.
