Gotta write an article for every interview question these days to maximize clicks.

To let people know not to expect a game earlier than 5 years from now.

Which is a bummer, because 6 years of development time shouldn't happen every game. There was a previous interview where they said something like, without a new war in Eastern Europe or a pandemic, we think we can get the next game done in three years, which means we'll probably have it done in four. BG3 is one of the best games ever made, but development time has to start trending back down.
