>brutally mogs Baldur's Gate 3Divinity chads, we can't stop winning.
>>739940946it's a bit less gay but that's it
>>739940946Front loaded with no legs and shitty writing, like all Larian slop.
>>739940946Larian marketer is now attacking Larian games.
>>739940946The first game is better
>>739940946I like it more but that’s mainly because I prefer cooldown on abilities rather than the spellslot rest system of dnd, at least for video games. It’s more fun when the game is built around you having your stuff available each encounter. I like Rogue Trader for the same reason.
>>739940946it really doesnt
>>739941187the AP system in this game mogs the fuck out of DOS2, but that's about it
Do these games even have cute waifu?
>>739940946>>739941187The truth is that Larian hasn't made a game worth playing. Not even divine divinity is worthwhile.
>>739940946the issue is its a "CRPG" which doesnt feel real but instead its a themepark map crafted purely for combat encounters, everywhere you go theres immersion breaking and wacky stuff, animals with stupid voices and silly dialogue, crocodiles who can conjure bucket of oil and throw it at you, main story tries to be very serious but ends up being generic and average at best. Item system and inventory micro management is probably the worst of any game i have played and sole reason i probably will never replay that game.
>>739941187Should I buy this shit for $4 if I fucking hate CRPGs and pathfinder wotr is filtering the shit out of me?How good are the lewd mods?
>>739941797nah it's not for you
>>739941825But I want to get into the epic /v/ culture. How do I make it for me?
>>739941419I’d also argue general battlefield movement is better in the first game. Repositioning is a costly investment and surfaces can control the battle. It’s a bit too punishing at times but os2 overcorrected. Surfaces are weaker and with the multitudes of cheap “jumping” abilities you can pretty much always jump to wherever on the battlefield you want to be at any given time. Still enjoy os2 though.
>>739941876Depends. How's your asshole? Is it hot? Wet? Craving? Do you like sucking cock? When did you start? Who's cock did you suck first? Friend? Your uncle? Your dad?
>>739941938>How's your asshole? Is it hot? Wet? Craving?It hurts, I think I got an hemorrhoid because I feel a huge lump when I wipe off shit, but I am too beta to go to the doctor. Can this shit go away on its own?>Do you like sucking cock? When did you start? Who's cock did you suck first? Friend? Your uncle? Your dad?Only sucked dick once, but it was mine. Now I am too fat to reach it again with my mouth. I did however not like it, maybe my dick just wasn't feminine enoughWhat about buying the 1+2 $10 bundle?
>>739942072Still not for you
>>739941187clunky wedge heels when wearing nothing>>739940946bare feet when wearing nothing
>>739940946BG3 is the much better game than Div OS 2The Div OS2 experience >dude, what if we make a game where every enemy encounter is them spamming fire everywhere? Dude, then we can make a boss encounter where there is literally fire everywhere. Dude, then later in the game we will swap normal fire with hell fire.
>>739942748don't worry, they're reducing the amount of surfaces in the next game for weenies like you
>>739942748Still having oil blobs ptsd nightmares, huh
This is the only game I liked from them.
>>739942942It's a good game but they could use other elements as well. Pretty much every enemy encounter is fire spam, there is water, acid and ice in the game but they are hardly used compared to fire.
>>739942391Fuck you faggot, I will make it for me myselfNow rev up only the finest lewd mods
>>739943132Just don't come back crying when your hemorhoids burst from all the skill issue
>>739943237It's fine, I found an easy start mod while searching for busty mods
>>739943132>lewd modsbro i don't think there are anydos2 might have a nude mod but beyond that i think that's about itdon't believe ANYTHING you read about crafting on the fextralife wiki it's a pile of shit https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TnXAfE8QUMTVKyd8r8XXwnKl68JRG7_L/edit
Hmm today I'll duo lone wolf summoner and oil/fire spam. gameplay is better over bg3 but the writing sucks
>>739941679>Item system and inventory micro management is probably the worst of any game i have played and sole reason i probably will never replay that game.Might as well have said it's the only crpg you ever played. Inventory management in DOS2 is standard stuff for modern rpgs, which are miles ahead of old rpgs in this regard, because devs back then hadn't figured out UI and inventory management yet, and lack the most basic quality of life features you expect from games today. It's probably my least favorite aspect of older crpgs. They're extremely clunky and much of your time is wasted clicking million windows and buttons to perform the most basic tasks.
>>739941797Stick to skyrim, kid.
>>739943586fire (and poison) is shit in both DOS games because like half o the enemies are immune
>>739943289>>739943570The best lewd mod is invisible sarongs, without them the high heels, swaying hips and nice asses on female characters look very sexy, just don't wear robes
>>739941918This is true. I hated the second game. The story is fucking oc donut steal chosen one slop, and the combat is a slog that consists entirely of burst damage and teleporting all over the place. The first one had so much charm, but the second tried way too hard to be serious, and so ditched the majority of what made os1 feel special.Also, anyone else sick of larian allowing you to play as companions? It cheapens the dynamic of encountering a like minded guy and having them tag along if you know that all five or six of these niggers is going to be forced into your gang due to whatever contrived nonsense has you following their mary sue shit story in the first place.
>>739943289Make sure you grab the percentage based saving throws mod for dos2.Game is dogshit without it.
>>739943884bro the protags of DOS1 are also oc donut steele chosen ones, even more so compared to the second game lol
>>739943950Yeah I know, I meant to say that the story is ALSO oc donut steel slop. It is just way over written and more serious in the second one.
>>739943804Finally some good fucking input
>>739940946couldnt make it through act I even. so boring
I tried playing that after BG3 and I did not care for the setting at all, I really hate the plot devices they used, everyone is in prison, anti-magic dictatorship.FR is a much better setting even in its modern iteration.
No need for infighting, lil nigga.
>>739944018I don't mind the whimsical fairytale games, but it stops working for me when they also explore darker themes in the same game, like pedophile cannibal ghosts and shitWhich is why I prefer Divinity games going into more serious tone, I think that works better
Bg3 fails because it's all melee superiority, magic isn't as fun because all the cool spells are beyond the max level
>>739940946Divinity Original Sin 2 is an excellent game! but it doesn't hold a candle to Baldur's Gate 3.BG3 is a straight and complete improvement from it, in almost every way.Controls, Combat, Interactivity, Difficulty design, Encounter design, Level design, Quest design, Dialogue, Player agency, RPG mechanics, Aesthetics, Soundtrack, Characters, Plot, Biomes variety, Replayability, Customization, Itemization, Spells & Abilities and QoL. The game is just better.That doesn't mean DOS2 is not worth playing, on the contrary, its one of the few Crpgs that are actually worth your time and investment, because its still one of the rare ones with good game design.I will not forget how i spend most of 2024 playing all those Crpgs that people shill here and to my surprise a lot of them were utter garbage or just mediocre and boring.This genre has a lot of bad faith actors (fangirls) so tread carefully and don't listen to any retard claiming they are experts.
>>739942748>*casts rain spell*>*casts tornado spell*
>>739940946If Divinity 3 doesn't have a female lizard companion I'm not buying it. >>739941187First game didn't have the sexy lizard women so its shit by default.
>>739940946>no nuditysorry but it'll always fall short because of that
>>739941041Swen Chinke is pissed that wotc can't stand working with their incompetent, insufferable faggotry, and that's saying something since wotc is nothing but incompetent, insufferable faggotry.
>>739940946 Bg3 was just div3 yet div 2 has:>better setting>better companions>better combat>better itemization>equally shit storyEverything these big western corpos touch gets worse.
>>739944628True
>>739940946>armor system>dogshit RNG itemization>absolutely dreadful homebrew rpg system resulting in complete homogenization of all characters, everyone is a teleporting wizard or teleporting muscle wizard>even worse writing than BG3 with no likeable character like Lae'zel or ShartHaha no
>>739945871the first game had giga stacked orc babes though>>739946082what big western corpo touched bg3?
>>739944270Try playing storm sorcerer and you will eat your words. Storm sorc utterly destroys any melee build.>group enemies with thunderwave or gust of wind>make them all wet>zap em>itemization will place a myriad of debuffs on survivors, some will fall prone
Reminder that if you're playing these games alone you're literally doing it wrong. It's a party game.Find some friends, loser
>>739943595>which are miles ahead of old rpgs in this regardJanky 4 man inventory system created for COOP is abysmal for solo play and is hundred times worse than diablo or BG1/2 item management, its not even close. Not only it has billion of useless crafting materials and junk you have to pick up and sell one by one(apparently multiselect wasnt invented in 2016 yet) to make money because every single piece of equipment for all 4 characters becomes useless everytime you level up (even the best legendary items are dogshit after u are are twice) so you constantly have to check RNG shops for good items. Its tedium to power of 10 not seen in any other rpg, from what i read they learned their lesson and rightfully abandoning this shit in dos3
>>739946551Hasbro, you stupid nigger. Plus wotc are pozzed on their own.
>>739940946Divinity is an awful system, one of the most bloated and confusing systems on the market.
Sebille best girl.
>>739941006Yeah but both Cyseal and Fort Joy mog the living shit out of BG3 Ch1 and the drop in quality is way worse in BG3 as well
>>739940946At least I actually gave enough of a shit about the story and characters in bg3 to be upset at how shitty the third act ended up being. This game has a lot of the reddit and some of the gay that bg3 does, but with absolutely none of the charm or substance. It's generic as all hell.
>>739946082>better settingForgotten Realms is far more interesting setting to explore, only thing divinity has is a degree of novelty.>better companionsSubjective, but BG3 has hotter companions by far.>better combatIt offers less meaningful options and the armor system is completely nonsensical.>better itemizationmaybe>equally shit storySubjective, but BG3 allows for more player expression and has better reactivity.
>>739947019but hasbro didn't do anything, they just provided the rights to use their setting, which Larian themselves paid big money to license (because they wanted it)
>>739947460are u troon perhaps?
>>739940946It has its ups and downs.
>>739943065You can basically ignore ice by using the crafting system to combine your boots with a handful of nails.
>>739941679I have no fucking idea why they think their inventory system and UI is acceptable, it's a war crime.
>>739940946>using AP to move is gay>teleportation being the only viable mode of movement is gay>hazards inflicting a tick of damage/heal for every pixel you move is gay>skills being locked behind vendors is gay>npcs being unaware of your undead nature during dialogue but they start spamming heals on you when combat starts is gay>the Beast is gay>OP is gay
>>739946707"Multiplayer CRPG" sounds so incredibly fucking unfun and backwards. It'll just be like doing a table top game of DnD but with no player freedom. Why the fuck would I want that when I can just play regular table top DnD? CRPGs are a single player only genre, any attempt to argue against that fact is automatically gay and wrong.
>>739952098You can actually craft skills as well.
>>739952362Yes but I didn’t figure that out until after I escaped the fort, so crafting skills is gay as well
>>739952613I think you are gay
>>739952362>craft skillsJust combine this dirty pair of socks with these smelly panties bro.No luck? Here's 284 more trash items to clutter your inventory, don't forget to try all the combos!
>>739940946the humor is far too awful for how much of it they put in the game
>>739953667Why is your Lohse a silent monk
>>739942748they put fire everywhere to stop you from permastunning everyone with freeze/shock you still permastun everyone anyways
Last 2 acts are pretty lame. They stop even throwing new enemies at you. Its mostly just magisters and void woken with increasingly buffed stats.
>>739940946Worst combat system, but at least there's mods
>>739941679>ThemeparkDivinity is the opposite of a Themepark RPG. The world is very reactive and most quests can be solved in a variety of creative ways. And don't just go by the wiki for solutions; the wiki is woefully incomplete.
>>739941006I hate this criticism. Reaper's Coast and Arx are great.
>>739946082>better itemizationare you a diablo/PoE player perhaps, divos2 items are awful >>739947460poorgotten realms is dogshit, basically the capeshit of DnD
How hard will the next Divinity game break the autists?
>>739942942>Cast bless >My current gen gaming rig still is brought to its knees propagating the bless through the fire.
>>739953667>tfw accidentally skipped the last boss kraken fight because braccus turned into a chicken, took 6 gorillion attacks of opporunity and died
>>739940946Now Tendies are resorting to pitting BG chads against DOS chads?
I hope the next one lets us play some of the cooler races. I like Divinity Imps and Orcs, but they haven't been playable thus far.
>>739954361Threeway between the protagonist and two bears
>>739941187No it wasnt. it was painfully mediocre and easy as shit.
>>739942942Extremely kino fight
>>739940946what character should I play as?
>>739955789If you have to play as origin, Fane is the way to go
>>739955789Ifan or Red Prince
>>739955789Lohse is good but Gane is the canon origin character storywise.
>>739955945>GaneFane
>>739955789Fane
>>739955789Fane has the most origin content. And the worst voice actor, so he actually works better as an origin vs companion.
>>739955789The Red Prince. You get to save a princess and reclaim your throne, and sire a line of dragons like a proper hero.
>>739940946it's actually such a big waste that they ever did baldur's gate 3. if i remember correctly, they shelved another project which i would have really liked to make bg3
>>739955789Ifan so you can take Fane along
>>739957759Fallen Heroes? If I recall, it was a tactics game set in the immediate aftermath of DOS2.
>>739957893yeah that one. i was really excited for it, i'm a fan of both divinity and xcom. and now it's gone forever :'(
>>739955789If it's your first time Ifan is probably the best, most of his plot points tie into the main plot.Fane ties into the background lore and is kind of confusing if it's your first run.
>>739957893What a shame they cancelled this, a more combat focused game with the DOS base could've been really fun.
>>739942942the fire fieldshome
>>739955789fane he is the main characteroriginal sin is literally his sin
>>739940946i didn't really enjoy bg3 but i really have to try out these games one of these days just because im curious if its larian i don't jell with or something elseshould i start with the older titles or go straight to original sin 1/2?
>>739958838Start with Dragon Commander.
>>739958838What didn't you like about bg3? In most ways but the setting it is very much a larian game
>>739958838Larian games went through different phases.Their first games (Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity) are closer to Diablo 2 but open world and with better roleplay (actual dialogue, quests etc)Divinity 2 is a 3rd person action-rpgDragon Commander is a strategy/dating simDOS1&2 are turn-based party-centered CRPGs, the closest games to BG3
>>739958927its been like a few years at this point so i don't even remember it all that well but at some point i just lost interest, not that i was ever particularly interested in the story or the characters either but the novelty was nice for a while i guess. i was playing with my friends too so i felt kinda shitty leaving them but i just wasn't enjoying myself and whenever they messaged me to play i would just audibly sigh.also the combat turned into a slog rather quickly where i would get to do my turn and then it was 5 minutes of waiting for my next turn because not only the enemies have to do their thing but my friends as well
>>739940946I'm playing again after only getting to act 2 years ago. Starting fresh and get too much choice overload on what I want to do in fort joy first
>>739959871>5 minutes of waiting for my next turn because not only the enemies have to do their thing but my friends as wellIf you play solo there's a lot less waiting
>>739959871I've only played the original sin games, but I found the writing and characters to be often annoying and less interesting than bg3, and the combat is still turn based and can be an agonizing slog (although it's worth mentioning that mp makes that problem much worse). Id prolly recommend you pass on them but they're like $10 rn so it might be worth a shot.
