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.

As I said in another comment, I own a series S, and I think it’s pretty ridiculous of me to expect a $300 piece of hardware to be able to play the latest games past five years. Even with what they have said, I just kind of assumed it can’t be true.

I imagine in two or three years I will switch to dev mode and boot retro arch on it.

Right but you're probably a little more clued up to this sort of stuff than the average consumer who's seen the marketing and thought 'oh lovely, I don't need a disk drive' in this thing.

Both my brothers own the S. It's an incredible little machine, but imo they screwed the proverbial pooch when they pushed this as a 1080p alternative to the more powerful Series X.

Hey I get consistent 1440p and decent upscaled 4k! lol
