Potential for pillars of Eternity 3 after BG3 success?

[Terron]

Just wondering with the massive success of BG3 do you think more companies might take a stab at the crpg genre especially obsidian? Maybe microsoft greenlight a new pillars or new crpg game altogether with obsidian at the helm? :) (I know avowed is still on the way so this may be a while away yet even if it were to be true)

Obsidian's always said they hoped they could could come back and make POE3 if Avowed (and Outer Worlds 2) are successful :) I'm sure they're pointing to BG3 as an example of what's possible if they have enough time and budget to work with.

Avowed will be a first person ARPG. Are any devs at Obsidian still interested in making a realtime-with-pause CRPG? After the fiasco with Tyranny (= some good ideas but it doesn't deliver what it promises) and after listening too much to alleged fans of turn-based combat in PoE 2? (= demands like "add a turn-based mode, or else I won't buy any game from you again").

I also hope the success of BG3 has proven to all the naysayers that Isometric and turn based RPG's are still awesome, always were awesome and that there is still a demand for them.

I hope more turn based RPG's and Isometic RPG's come about because of BG3.

Two entirely different kinds of games and technically, they're making Avowed which is from the PoE universe so that'll probably be what their next moves/video games will be. I just think since PoE 2 was such a huge letdown and financial failure, they're probably not doing another one of these kinds of CRPGs for a while.
