The lesson they'll actually take is "money? MONEY!! MONEEEEEYYYYYYY!!!"

"this game is a gold mine! It's being underutilised at the moment, let's improve the profitability with some in-game purchasable items and a subscription for bonus content"

I’m hoping a lesson they take is “let Larian make BG4” as well.

I love BG3 to death. But I also don't want Larian to become the next EA under the yoke of some Hasbro/WoTC for BG4/5/6/7. I hope they continue to make their own games and forge their own path, with little to no reliance on megacorps. Their Divinity series is a treasure in it's own right, and they said their next small projects are getting them excited.
