The problem wouldn’t be the studio making it, it would be the monetization imposed on every facet of it. Any possible add-on would be dlc or part of a subscription. They wouldn’t even allow them to do significant free updates unless it was tied to a paid product or hefty subscription fee.
I don’t really want Larian getting looped into being a WotC shill. I hope they stay independent and keep on making the best games they can make. Single player or small party story games never get old.
DNDBeyond is just another bullshit live service with subscriptions in perpetuity.
If anything I would love for Larian to continue developing their DoS rules engine further. Playing BG3 I just wanted the rules from DoS. More punts and more combo barrels.

Want 2 short rests? Fuck you, pay me.
Want to respec? Fuck you, pay me.
Want to recruit Scratch? Fuck you, pay me.
Imagining Withers saying “Fuck you, pay me!” is pretty amusing, though!
Amen to this!
