What funding?

Uh... Didn't WOTC commission and pay for the game? I read that they went to Larian, not the other way around.

Not correct Larian reached out to WOTC coast first to try get the licence after Divinity Original Sin but were turned down because they felt that they were too new. Was only after DOS2 that they got the license.

New? They’ve been around since the 90s. Original Sin was like the 5th or 6th Divinity game.
