Larian’s Swen Vincke posted a tweet yesterday showing the game hitting 500,000 concurrent players, making it the third most played game on all of Steam He said that he told IT to only expect 100,000 concurrents at max.
I don’t know why this sentiment is so popular. It’s a single player game, most single player games don’t have microtransactions… In fact I think it’d be odd and outside the normal if it did
@qwertyWarlord@AlecSadler I would like to respectfully disagree. Witcher 3 had DLC. Skyrim had DLC. Dragon age origins also had DLC. Many many single player games had DLC. I’m not sure where you’re looking.
@StinkyRedMan got it. Sometimes it’s hard to tell because in both cases I’m not getting a complete game or there’s some sort of FOMO involved. Heh. I get what you’re saying though.
The game has LAN support as well as steam cloud. While it’s designed for single it handles multiplayer extremely well. The only annoyance I’ve ran into is that only one person can interact with a merchant at a time.

Something something Skyrim horse armor something something….
Oblivion horse armor even
It’s not a single player game. It has online and LAN co-op. Lots of single player games have micro transactions these days too.
Its like everyone forgot Civ 6 exists

Dlc and mtx aren’t really the same thing tho.

There will most definitely be an expansion/enhanced edition for BG3. Expansions are not “in game purchases”
