Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate III by Larian Studios - Early Access announcement on June 13th

As far as I can tell, they've been bothered ever since the Enhanced Edition of D:OS came out. Larian getting the license for Baldur's Gate was just fuel to the fire. I personally really enjoyed D:OS2, and I am excited for BG3.

 

What's your favorite part about Dos2?

 

A more honest comparison would probably be between spells like Grease, Spiderweb and such constant spells that cover a ground area, which, just as barrels and spells in Divinity: OS, can be quite cumbersome, specially if you use them together. In both game they are optional and depending on how you play or build your character, or what enemies are you against you may not even use them that much, and both can be removed by the player in different ways (although sadly, in P:K means wasting a Dispel spell, so you end up having to wait real time for it to disappear if you don't want to waste your spells).

 

It's even bigger than that.

 

A lot of new accounts in this thread.....and all of them shit.

 

Just like Bulgaria.

 

DOS2 is far from a perfect game, and the unfortunate thing about it is that it really falls apart towards the end, as is the case with many great RPGs. I had a lot of fun with the combat, but I am always a sucker for characters, and Fane is an excellently written character. I’m also a sucker for music and D:OS2’s is excellent. Beast’s origin story is pretty great as well, and I really enjoyed it. I didn’t like DOS2 as much as other RPGs that I’ve played, but I still really enjoyed it. It’s one of the only games that I bought and played immediately.

I haven’t gone back and played the Definitive Edition yet, and that’s because I think the character building is the weakest part of the game, so I’m not motivated to replay it. One day I might, but not yet.

 

Said by the guy rated as “dumbfuck” by the community at large. LOL

 

That's normal. Dwarves, elves and halflings were character classes back then. They also had a limited level progression. While the human classes (Fighter/Magic User/Cleric) were able to reach lvl 36, a halfling was limited to 8.

 

Shit reasons. Shit game

 

I don't think it was the community at large. All it takes is some fan boy with thin skin. Or crispy. It was probably just crispy

 

Cope harder

 

Nah pretty much every thread he's in, people treat him that way.

 

Now imagine if Kirill was still alive...

 

Nice tag you got there. Funny how Crispy got it right, once again.

Dave Arneson's proto-D&D Blackmoor campaign involved a surprisingly large number of character stats for supposedly being focused on story.

 

Larianfags are decline incarnate.
We've had our Underrail and PF:KM. The renaissance was nice while it lasted.
Time to go back to the dark ages.

 

Come on, WotR is in development!

 

Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
I'll reserve judgement until after the game is released.

 

First two chapters of WOTR are currently playable for those of us with alpha access and they’re fantastic.

 

That's good.
But I still ain't getting on no hype trains...
I've been burned too many times.

 

I specifically don't get on hype train because once I all the games I was hyped for ended up being garbage. I now firmly believe that I'm cursed and I jinx future games simply by being excited about them. I'm defending BG3 here but I'm not excited in the least as a precaution.

 

Do they follow the general format of kingmaker? Do a couple preliminary quests then a big dungeon as a finale? Were there big dungeons in the first two chapters? Honestly the best part of kingmaker for me were those big levels since recent games have been disappointing in that regard

 

Yes, yes and yes. Fewer small side locations than Kingmaker—not sure if that’s a design choice or if they just haven’t put them in yet—but there are a bunch of big maps and the finale of both chapters is a big dungeon.
