    They have a history of amazing games but also of milking gamers and shameful cash grabs (like the GTA script remaster etc.). I wonder who do you consider the overall best developer nowadays?

    I’d vote for Larian - they do everything right. Naughty Dog would also be high in my ranking.

      I would vote for Larian these days. I’m not ready to play BG3 yet, but Divinity Original Sin 2 was so good that I don’t even need to second guess it.

      Their last amazing game was gta4. We got a great single player with great single player DLC.

      Gtav was ok but after beating it once I never went back to it. And I ignored online after the first few months, which were the only great times of gtao. We didn’t get a single story dlc.

      Rdr2 is filled with potential for native single player DLC content, but instead they did nothing with it. I would so pay for single player DLC, please do it, take my money!

        I totally agree. I actually had to force myself to finish GTA V, though I absolutely loved GTA IV and GTA SA.

        For me, it comes down to characters and story, and GTA V’s characters were unlikable and the story felt uninspiring. I even didn’t particularly care about the choice at the end, and I think they missed a huge opportunity to have a DLC expand on Franklin and Trevor. But in the end, I hated playing as Michael, Franklin disappointed me, and Trevor needed more content.

        I really liked Niko and CJ, they had interesting arcs that really fit with the theme of the setting they’re in.
