I've loved Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale , BG2 is still one of my favorite games , I'll check this for sure when it'll be released; for now I'll keep my hopes down...

Lurked the official forums a bit:
Mages there are totally boring (and useless in the current state). Deliberately changing the most awesome class in IE games to a cheap damage dealer with a bit of cc. I'll prolly wait for mods before I buy that. :/ Class devs reasoning: No invisibility spells because Rogues already do that. No Summoning spells because chanters (bards) already do that. No hardcounters which made fights in modded IE games (original AI and NPC spell tables are too dumb) epic because, well he doesn't like it. ... Someone made a successful beta run with a party of 6 chanters. Devs response "Oh, we'll have to nerf them". This is a fucking single player RPG but they treat class balance like Mobas.

Not impressed. Someone got me to try Divinity: Original Sin, and I realize I hate these sorta games. I hate running into wall, after wall of text. If I find myself caring so little about the story that I'm just mashing through the dialogue in a game, then I don't need to be playing it. Same goes for any text heavy game.
Divinity: Original Sin was completely overboard with text. Even random NPCs had 6 different 500 word essays to read. Developers everywhere should understand that is what you don't do with a game. Last edited by MrSmiley21 on Nov 18, 2014, 5:09:16 AM

" You are not their target audience then. But D:OS is really painful in this regard because the story and dialogue are plain bad. I stopped playing at some point because the combat system was fun and challenging at the beginning but just faceroll later, no tactics needed and I had no interest to see how the story turns out in the end. Knowing obsidian, the story and dialogue will be high quality and mature. Might still not be your game, this is a real crpg. But there is a high chance atm that they will fuck up the combat system. :( Target audience for these kind of games: - those who love infinity engine games - people who like good stories and well done tactical group combat - people who like good stories and want to just faceroll easy difficulty to progress the story | |
Isn't this the game where they said they could make really great invironments without much PC strain because they are actually 2D?

if you like those kind of games dragon age origins brought me even more joy than bg2(playing it the last weeks)
was pretty excited when i heard da3 released this weekend just to find out it basicly has nothing in common with those old crpg games wtf its a skyrimclone with buildin datingsim and a fucking TREASURE ECHOLOT games have developed in a weird direction apparently its custom now to numb down everthing and handheld the player so you press 1 button and screen lights up with effects sad direction story has less and less meaning now origins gave me a good dive in feeling https://poe-ssf.herokuapp.com/.

This review tells me all I need to know about the new DA
