BG3 came in like a wrecking ball. Sucks for all the actual devs though.

Baldur's Gate 3? What does that have to do with it? I don't really understand :)

How much good attention it's gotten. No microtransactions, season passes etc. It's called a ton of attention to all the AAA enshitification since it's released.

So, I'd imagine those studios are scrambling to shift gears.
