Larian has delayed the release of Baldur’s Gate 3, currently on pace to possibly be 2023’s Game of the Year, until they can figure out how to make split-screen work on Series S.

    It has no strengths, and the install base is shit.

    The switch only gets away with being a last gen console because it’s a handheld. The Series S has all the performance benefits of a last gen console with the install base of one that released 5 minutes ago.

    There is no “the way they do split screen”. BG3 while running split screen is not a game that should make a current gen console struggle in any way. It makes the S struggle because it’s not a current gen worth of hardware.

      $300, access to Game Pass, and playing nearly every new game that comes out for far cheaper are its strengths.

      There is no “the way they do split screen”.

      This is just a strange argument to make in the face of interviews and contradictory evidence of other modern games running on the Series S.
