I think that's what I'm gathering - it's that the increased production value has signaled to the mainstream gamer audience that "this is a Mass Effect", and that is a powerful marketing message. The last game of that type was...Dragon Age Inquisition? So yeah, people have been starving for another one of these.
Well damn, I think we solved it. Larian basically reverse-engineered Bioware's origin story, and this release is them fully stepping into old Bioware's shoes.
Quite fitting considering BioWare made Baldurs Gate and Baldurs Gate II before they were acquired by EA and made into a shell of their former glory.
