Divinity Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition

[AstroZombie]

few thoughts:

- hmm game definitely needs more Gothic style approach to homeowners. Npcs do not wander in their houses (beside very few) and even if you pick a lock and go into their private room they do nothing. I think in sequel they should work on this aspect. In Gothic you couldn't just walk into someone house or into private chambers and steal stuff. You had to actually avoid being seen and NPC didn't like you trying to go into someones house.

- Day night cycle for sequel should be obvious.

- They do if they see you, most NPCs don't like you opening doors to their rooms. I do agree that they should be more active around the house

- The game was going to have day/night cycles and NPC schedules, but they had to scrap that because it was way more work than they originally envisioned. Hopefully it's something they plan to add from day one on their next game.

Enemy resistances out of control. I'd recommend carrying fighter with biggest sword, no enchantments (except Dark I guess, they don't heal from that yet). I have ranger but it's not enough. Are there even level 18 skills for not mages?
High level spells never heard about friendly fire. Don't learn Lightning Storm cast a spell, see your whole party stunned by it.

I feel like I'm walking into Mordor and have to fight throught it all.

On the outside it looks like a really nice game! And when you start playin it you get the same feeling, until you go into combat! Because this aint like no other game i've tried in a long time, because you shift turns attacking! This totally ruins it for me, im tryin to play a game but its more like a game of cards or maybe like the game Heroes in a bad way!!

So so disapointed and sad over loosing 40 eu haha

The parties you and I go to are preeetty fucking different it seems

 

[Crooked Bee]

its a party at my house, i establish the rules hell yeah

the regular corporate/dress code/stiff-upper-lip parties are abs horrendous tho', if htat's what you mean. i hate those too. thankfully i can just say most of those goodbye, lol

lol, no thanks. Most parties I attend involve beer, red wine, good food and heated debate. I like discussing politics, but the more drunk I get the more more tolerant I become in terms of topics

Well that, or we go dancing n' shit. That requires a whole other level of alcohol though. Sounds like I drink a lot I guess, but I don't really. I just make 'em count.

 

[Crooked Bee]

Am starting with a one-h battlemage which is quite different from my main game setup. my partner is a fighter. Wish our melee party luck lol

Heya Kodex. Just got back from Family July 4th Biz and now that I am home, I got just ONE thing on my mind...


and that is, does the Kodex still love Divinity: Original Sin?

Similarly, had a long drunken 4th with beautiful weather (no really, you couldn't have asked for better) and when I got home the first thing I went to was D:OS. And it is a fucking testament to Larian that I couldn't do it (because there's not a Decline game I can't play drunk). So sadly and wonderfully, I had to put it away until a new day dawned.

EDIT: Also yes I still love it.

Port solves any party, good move.

What's there to debate? You kiddin'? Nothing makes you feel more clever than a bottle of red wine. Can make world peace and solve economic crises on that shit. Add beer to that and you become loud as well. A winning cpmbination.

(I have two groups of friends; one group that studies or is active in politics and one group that works as masons/electricians/roofers etc... partying with both groups feels eerily similar)

Crooked Bee, is this the guy you're playing with?

ETA: Playing co-op multiplayer with strangers/real life friends (same thing in my book as far as gaming goes) is a level of courage and balls I will never attain.

 

[Crooked Bee]

Ugh can't seem to brofst, fucking ipad tapatalk. But no :p

I dunno whats so courageous about playing with real life friends. That's what real life friends are for!

(just waiting for him to finish char creation, and i already see he sucks lol. Too bad we won't be able to play long because i need to see to the rest of the party too)

I'll be playing this with a mate who's only other RPG ever is Planescape: Torment. Dunno what I can expect. At least I think he's a min-maxer at heart.

How old are you? When I was growing up, it was only acceptable for people to be into vidyagames if they were console games, and even then only socially acceptable if you were still a kid. Admitting you were into computer games was for faggots who would get beaten up between classes. My gamer friends express similar situations in their generation, but maybe we are all just weirdos. (Not sure on this, though, since off hand some of those friends are respectively a lab tech and the other a bartender who makes 300-400$ a night.)

Then again I may just have a low tolerance for playing games with idiots. That's probably all I'm getting at.

Anthony Davis to answer your question...

imma at a party but i dont wanna party, i wanna play divinity original sin

please send halp

I cannot help you as that would mean stepping away from D:OS... so sorry, judge me not.




Also, gonna start over again. I thought two lone wolfs would be fun, but in addition to turning off companion recruiting, it ALSO turns off the conversation stuff between the two main characters. That was too much. So back to my mage and rogue I think.

It doesn't do that. You may have unchecked "Dual Dialogues" in the options.

If I go to the tab on their character sheets with their "personality traits", ie. romantic, obedient, altruistic, etc. it is just blank now.

That is extremely weird, I have played many times with people in co-op where we were both lone wolf, and it never affected dialogue. Sounds like either a bug, an interface error that requires a reload, or dual dialogues turned off in options. Probably a bug if you have eliminated other possibilities.

Yeah, I double checked just now and dial dialogs was still enabled.

Both my starting characters were long wolfs. I will try it again right now.

 

[Excidium]

That or picked loyal AI?

If you just started the game, you wouldn't have any dialogue traits because they haven't established themselves yet. Apologies if I'm misunderstanding, and that still sounds like a bug if dialogues aren't triggering.

Loyal AI should still have dialogue traits.
