Larian lost the ability to make predictions about hardware requirements.
The exponential increase in the price of RAM and solid-state drives, caused by mass demand from companies developing artificial intelligence, is creating serious problems for the gaming industry.
In a new interview, Larian Studios CEO Sven Vincke spoke about how these changes are affecting the development of the new Divinity.
We have never seen anything like this. Prices for memory and storage are just crazy. It destroys all our hardware requirements forecasts. Usually we know the trends and can navigate them, but now the situation is unpredictable.
According to Vincke, the studio has to carry out significant optimization at the early access stage, although this was not originally planned.
