Point Shop (Game Profile, Animated Avatars & Backgrounds)

[Scarleton]

Heya,

With the launch slowly approaching us, I would love to see Larian utilize the Steam Point Shop. We could have a myriad of animated avatars of the available companions from the game, backgrounds and icons and maybe a game profile. (Imagine a Tav dedicated profile)

In my opinion it could help out the marketing of the game where us, the players could adorn our profiles with some cool BG3 art which could put more spotlight on the game itself, part from the word of mouth of course.

Also, with the final Panel From Hell next week, one thing I don't see enough developers do is utilize the Steam Broadcast which can also feature drops. Arkane did it with Redfall, even though the game was an unfinished mess, lots of people who had no clue about the game tuned in just to get the animated avatars that the broadcast was dropping.

TLDR: I love this game, I'd love to see BG3 stuff on the point shop so I can don my profile in glorious BG3 art.

Rather a poor example since the majority who played redfall got paid to do it. Certainly after the game is actually release we can expect some point shop stuff.

I mentioned them as an example since they were the first developers that I personally saw utilize the drop system of the steam broadcast. My point is people will tune in for free shiny stuff, I get that people have a bad taste in their mouth whenever Redfall comes up, everyone knew it was a huge red flag once the early previews came in. But yeah, maybe I shouldn't have mentioned it.

I would like to see Larian use the point shop. Great idea.

Here's hoping we get the animated versions of stickers they have on GOG and the rest of the goodies.

I would welcome a game profile as good as seen with Monster Hunter Stories 2
