But now a small, indie studio comes along with a grand slam and they don’t like it kind of makes them look bad by comparison.

Larian is similar in size, if not significantly larger, than Bethesda when they made Skyrim.

Less established though. I'd say that Larian wasn't on most gamers' radar until Divinity Orginal Sin 2.

Even then I feel like they were too underrated for their obvious potential. I'm glad the studio is fully in the spotlight now. With so many shitty companies out there it feels like they earned and deserve it. Now we just have to hope they don't fall to temptation and turn to crap like so many others
