This is not something I ever expected to see.
Larian and Bioware started their trajectories in the games industry at the same time and Bioware led the way in making RPGs big. It's almost unimaginable that we're now entering an era were the name Bioware won't show up anymore when discussing upcoming RPGs. What a loss for all of us.
Thank you for all the games. Thank you for the many hours of gameplay. Thank you for all the stories . You can be damned proud of what you achieved.
I hope you all land well.

Bioware has been a massive part of CDPR history. We befriended them when localizing and selling Baldur’s Gate games in Poland, Czech, and Slovakia. And later they were great help when lending us their engine for Witcher 1, sharing their wisdom and even giving us a spot at their booth at E3. I had a pleasure to visit them a few times in Edmonton and also host them in our Warsaw office. Very sad for the people affected, but also sad to see a legendary brand go down. Not a great day in the games industry.

Sometimes you take a gamble on a surprise screener, and the surprise is a remarkably moving modern fable that starts off silly, but becomes an increasingly potent moral message about jealousy and gender roles. A beautifully woven delight.
Finished Penguin Colony. Using Lovecraft, man’s lust for power at any cost, turning a blind eye to atrocities just to further ambition, as a really powerful metaphor works so well. Also you have a squawk button.
I’ll be honest, I would play a Bungie Battlefront in a HEARTBEAT. Also could you imagine the campaign they’d make for that? Incredible pairing if that comes to pass.
My favourite thing about street fighter was, hands-down, the fact that every time someone is visibly strong, the movie cuts to M Bison making what I can only describe as a demonic cum face.

Street Fighter was good, weird, hilariously horny, clearly loves that series with all its heart but…it just sorta ends without any meaningful conclusion. Odd.

I think if you try to satirise too many things at once, it becomes increasingly difficult to understand what it is you set out to make fun of in the first place. That’s Digger!

I love it when a joke post turns into a full cosplay. Yes, I made a female version of Withers with the best mod 💅
It was entirely handmade: natural materials, painting, weathering, latex and silicone

Congrats to Larian Guildford's upstairs neighbours on their success, I am so stoked that we have what sounds like a new Burnout game.
