Lets discuss about the Divinity series of videogames (From Divine Divinity to Divinity: Original Sin 2)
I played Dragon Commander some time ago (Lizard best companion & dwarf best waifu). It was fun, although the RTS parts could be annoying & even hard, but it can be passable. That was my first Divinity game.
And just some months ago, I played Divinity: Original Sin. And it was a nice RPG: Good music, nice mechanics, history not bad, some replayability, etc…. I enjoyed a lot. And so once I finished it, I went directly to play Original Sin 2; But while I didnt struggle much with the first game, Im having problem with the second
>OS1 at normal difficulty, had a normal beginning. Maybe one of your characters could die in the first battle against orcs, but not much problem in the end. and going on, you could advance normally, maybe some death and sometimes losing, but not much struggle if you are not retarded.
>Stealing shit is REALLY profitable, and so money doesnt become hard to get. Then again, resurrection scrolls cost like dozen-a hundred gold, so it becomes really easy to obtain them sometime after the beginning. Skillbooks can cost a lot depending of which ones, but its fair, and you can get some skills at the beginning.
>Game versatility at leveling characters is fine. And it promotes to a wizard character have many skills set that synchronize, so having two wizard which each one having to main elemental schools of magic is really good. But no need to be autistic, and other character is fine to focus, and maybe getting some points in other combat skillsets. If one were playing hard (Which many say is a huge step compared to normal), maybe it would not be the case, but then again, this is Classic difficulty.
<OS2 even at the beginning and normal too and being some levels is hard and your companions die easily, while your enemies are tough as shit. They will hit you more, and it will be felt more than you do. And with the armor mechanics, which is not bad, but somehow your armor dissapears quickly while theirs not. They will alway have better position & movement, ALWAYS.
<Gold is scarce as shit here, and there is not much to steal anyways at Fort Joy. And skill books are really expensive. AND YOU WILL NEED THEM.
<But worst are the resurrection scrolls, they cost THOUSAND gold, and your character even at the beginning will die fast. Dont get surprised for a battle to one-two character to die. Thank good you start by having multiple scrolls.
>No wonder there are a shitload of character builds for this game. You either focus on one type of armor (So get fucked when dealing other armor at the beginning), and guides arent bad, but tey always show you a picture of final stats & skill points of a character WITH BONIFICATIONS included, so I cant know shit if in an atribute its only one-three points to put, or more becuase the have whatever equipment buff included. With skills is worse, you gotta have a points in almost everything (even if only some points tough) to get some skills, and too much difuse for me. Its good to not focus only on one set but come on.
I am doing something wrong or what? Maybe im being dumb, but really, I didnt had much problem with the first game, but here I struggle, and I cant win against the guard on the dungeon when entering the hidden door on the Fort Joy statue…
Also, another thing about the Divinity series….where is the lore? The wikis dont have no information about the world or its history, for some weird reason. How a RPG doesnt have lore available for a newcomer on its wikis?
