Mockney. Always was.

People forget just how much comedy was in BG1 & 2. I'm not surprised in the least that Larian got the contract.
 

It's played straight here though!

Actually, Blood in Baldur's Gate (I would describe it as an episodic short story rather than a game) is clearly heavily influenced by Sherlock Holmes stories, to the extent that this take on Baldur's Gate feels like a pastiche of Victorian London.
 


I like checking up on this daily. It's not a game, just one man wandering around, who is not allowed to piece things together (or even open letters addressed to them) until it is dramatically appropriate.

Like... are you even a private investigator if no-one's even tasked you with a job? It's okay to say you just like going through crime scenes and meeting new people as a hobby! Even though you also seem bad at meeting new people, based on all the interactions you get at the bar...

Still, it's fun to see.
