Mentioning the hottest role-playing games in recent years, I have to mention Larian Studios, as an old Belgian studio, the release of the "Divine Realm" series enjoys a high reputation, and the recent "Baldur's Gate 3" at the end of the development is also deeply anticipated by players, recently the official brief description of the recent situation of the studio, mentioning that the development of "Broad's Gate 3" personnel is 10 times more than "Divine Realm: Original Sin", let's take a look at the specific details.
If you think of La Ryan Studios, the first work that comes to mind is "Divine Realm: Original Sin 2", as a full score of role-playing in recent years, when it was released in 17 years, it was widely praised for its rich game content and excellent interactivity, and some critics even praised it as one of the best role-playing games ever.
The game was also a commercial success, selling more than 1 million copies in just two months. But behind the brilliant sales are the big bets of Larion Studios, as the title says, go all out. At the beginning of the development of the first Game of Divine Realm: Original Sin, the production team faced a serious shortage of funds, but fortunately, the wild idea combined with the quality of the game, allowed Larian to complete the plan to raise $500,000 within 12 hours. After collecting the funds, the production team invested all the funds into the development of the game, at this time because of insufficient funds, the production team faced the risk of disintegration at any time, but Larian never left a way back for himself, and then finally handed over the satisfactory picture of "Original Sin of the Divine Realm" by constantly listening to the players' opinions.
After a short break, Larian Studio kept investing in the development of "Divine Realm: Original Sin 2", although there was a reward for the sales of "Divine Realm: Original Sin", but in the face of the upgrade of the game system, Larian Studio has increased from 40 to 150 people, the increase in developers and the upgrade of the game system have made the studio once again into the danger of bankruptcy, but the studio did not lay off employees and reduce the game because of the pressure of funds, and finally still raised funds through the platform, passed the most difficult stage, And achieved all the desired goals.
The full version of Divine Realm: Original Sin 2 was released on September 14, 2017. With 75,000 people online on the day of its release, the game became the most simultaneously online game on Steam at the time.
Judging from the development experience of the first few films, Larian Studio has a tenacity, always going all out in the face of game development, after experiencing the "Divine Realm: Original Sin" series almost bankruptcy twice, Larian Studio still does not consider the problem of funds, "We thought we knew everything enough, we even estimated that the studio might need more manpower, but we were wrong, I swear never thought that there would be 400 people to make Baldur's Gate 3." 」 But as I said, at that moment, we have two options: we can scale down some of the game content, or we can scale ourselves up and get ourselves into some minor trouble. Now it seems that we have chosen to scale up. Larian founder Swen Vincke said.
Just as the title "Go All Out", it is Larion Studios with such a responsible attitude to develop each game, will have the glory of the "Divine Realm" series, I believe that a year later, "Baldur's Gate 3" will still bring us surprises, reshaping 17 years of glory, here Xiaobian can only say: Continue to go all out, Larian Studio.
