In a new interview with IGN, Larian Studios boss Swen Vincke responded to questions about Baldur's Gate 3 being on Xbox Game Pass, explaining why the best RPG of 2023 won't be on Microsoft's subscription service anytime soon.

apparently is downvote worthy that I am a bit poor at the moment.

Nah, you didn't mention anything related to you only being able to afford gaming via GamePass in your current situation, so it can't be that. Maybe your comment just didn't jive with people on its own merit, completely unrelated to your financial situation. (I don't have any particular feelings about your comment in either direction, so I'm just speculating.)

It'll get it on Steam later, the implication was there. Odd, though. I was considering console until I saw how the frame rate is: "frame-rates are in the low 30s in performance mode (with some screen-tearing) and a nearly locked 30fps in quality mode" (Eurogamer). Definitely getting it on PC, eventually.
