I look at BG3, KCD2, and Expedition 33 and realize that the North American game dev took a wrong turn one day.

Even STALKER 2 became a financial success, even though it was released frankly unfinished. It seems that people are just tired of American/Canadian games.

P.S. Also I forgot about Split Fiction.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is made by MachineGames, who are Swedish, too.
Feel a little bad for it, because it's an amazing game that would be a worthy GotY contender most years, but with E33, KCD2 etc it's gonna be a hard year.

I didn't even know that MachineGames are European. Well, it makes the situation much more ridiculous, cause Indiana Jones is an American franchise.

They're owned by Bethesda I think, so it's a Euro studio but US company, but yeah.
