MODERATORS
The video tries to imply it's industry wide, but only show 3 tweets. I've also seen nothing but praise from other game developers I know.
Absolutely what I noticed too. The tweets didn't seem like they were even "panicking" but just saying to players "Don't expect this because most studios aren't going to devote the same resources and ability to the party-based classic isometric-inspired RPG genre because the genre is fairly niche."
It a headline says "some" in it, it's clickbait.
I sware that's happened with all big games of late, Elden Ring, TotK, etc. A few Devs decide to be contraian to the praise and then the media decides it a huge backlash.
That’s just modern media, they often write about the internet exploding about something and then it’s just a few tweets from random people.
They are not even criticizing the game.
The opinions are basically either "Smaller studios won't be able to replicate BG3" and "Not all games/RPGs need to be as deep and long as BG3".
