Baldur's Gate 3.

Baldur's Gate 3 and Divinity: Original Sin 2 were priced "below their value" by a Larian developer who "had faith" that they would make their money back.

In a thread on twitter, Baldur's Gate 3 publishing director Michael Douse - who has been playing and enjoying Star Wars Outlaws - nevertheless said that he doesn't "love the artificiality of pricing structures post retail," pointing to the new Star Wars games' expensive Ultimate Edition and its various add-ons. Douse went on to say that "I think a game should be priced accordingly with its quality, breadth, and depth," and that "almost all games should cost more at a base level because the cost of making them (inflation, for one) is outpacing pricing trends."
