Divinity: Original Sin II

I've never played either.
What makes DD better than OS?
What is so bad about BD?

Alright fuck wit I'm about to blow your asshole open.

First off those quest markers aren't shit. They do it for the main quest and even them they don't mean anything because it's for tutorial purpose only. After that it stops.

Next they real ancestors it to have multiple difficulty levels to the point that the hardest straight up fucks your one save one try only.

They added new skills and new A I for enhances edition. So again you're talking out of your ass because classic original is still in the game.

Next they made story changes because of how vague the plot was and helped guide the incoherent story.

They added quests, added nocs, added more.

Runs perfectly fine unless you have a shit computer.

You're a retard.

Well, first off DD and BD are every different games from OS. So whether DD or OS is better comes down to preference.
BD however is just total garbage.
It's way too easy, there's that infamous maze part, the side quests are fucking boring and they're for some reason mandatory to complete the main story, the voice acting is fucking horrible, the skill system is fucking horrible and at any point you and teleport to a safe zone.

I got a completely garbage pc with dual core and I ran Original Sin enhanced without any sort of issues

I expect a lot of SJW crap, maybe all the woman will wear burkas

Its ridiculous how shitty the combat is, though. And the whole game is combat focused.

I couldnt get myself to finish it after act 3.

The writing is pretty good but TERRIBLY scripted. The quest scripting is also kinda bullshit sometimes, given what class you are playing.

That was a thing in DD too. Well, unless you thought you were going to need those pyramids for something other than going back to a bed and a shopkeeper.

Which lets you coast through the game without ever having to pay attention or actually explore, unlike the original.
What the fuck are you even trying to say here? Yes, they added an ironman mode, so what? Ironman is the easiest self-imposed challenge you can do, and in a game that relies so heavily on RNG it pigeonholes you into a specific (read: extremely safe and boring) playstyle
I never said they didn't, though you're neglecting to mention they also removed several abilities that were in the vanilla game.
Some of the changes were for the better, some for the worse. It's a neutral change overall.
All of which are generally of lower quality than the quests and NPCs of the vanilla game.
I can pull 144fps easy in vanilla. In Enhanced, I'm hovering around 80. That's a pretty drastic drop in framerate for a game that looks the exact same.
Any criticism the Enhanced Edition received was just met with "if you don't like it, just go back to the original version :^)" which I guess is why that version is much more populated nowadays. You seem exceptionally bootyblasted that someone is calling out the Enhanced Edition for the casualized shit that it is.

Between censoring anything considered lewd and constantly expressing that they want to do everything they can to get more women to play the game, they're going pretty far off the deep end. The owner of the company has expressed multiple times that he's "incredibly disappointed" that the ratio of male to female players is drastically in favor of the former, and promised to "make changes" to appeal more to the female audience.

Teleporting back to the Battle Grounds is far more bullshit than abusing those teleporter stones.

Are you talking about the first Divinity or OS?
Because in the first Divinity you absolutely could blow through the story without paying attention, and quest markers existed there as well as pointed out.

When I said "original" I was referring to the original vanilla version of OS, sorry. Should have been a bit clearer on that.

You are right. Still, I wouldn't criticize BD too much for its easiness, DD wasn't exactly that hard either (which I think was the point in the end sequence). Now, how the controlling of the party works, that's horrible.

I really respect Larian, but they always have certain roughness with their games.

Is this because they covered the cover woman's belly?

Nah, that was faggy as shit and because of them bending to SJWs, but what I said above about their promises makes it look very likely that they're going full kool-aid on OSII.

Sequence-breaking was really easy in the first game as well.
Remember that quest-line involving the fake goods? It was hard not to sequence-break that.

That's part of the charm. Like getting permanently polymorphed because of the bugged spell effect of a trap.

While I wouldnt say they went full SJW one of the developers is convinced 50% of gamers are women and he wants them for this game. He also often goes to san francisco for "advice". Lets see if he had enough time to corrupt the rest of the team

That is close enough to truth, but I don't see how a turn based RPG is going to attract the mobile shovelware audience.

There are proper female gamers these days. Not that many, but then again, I don't think that non-porn entertainment that relies too much on gender-based preferences is really much worth of anyone's time. And the thing with RPGs is that they usually are meant to be a very flexible base for all kinds of characters the player decides to do.

If a girl says she plays RPGs she usually means modern Bioware or Bethesda games.

Women I went out with played
-Diablo 2 & L4D2
-Sims games and HoMM 2 and point & click games
-Harvest Moon and Pokemon games

Original sin was boring as hell.
Awful pacing.
Boring skills after level 6.
Melee skills basically useless
Very little weapon diversity
Very little build diversity
Few armors that all look awful and very few different looking ones.
Lack of enemy types
Inconsistent gameplay
Packaged with a campaign editor that were pushing hard when released and yet no one has done anything with it.

I get the rest of your points but what the fuck is this?

Me and my brother would play co op.
There was this instance where we dropped an oil barrel on some Orcs, at the same time I shot a fireball.
The resulting explosion killed the big Orc.
However my game crashed so I had to restart.

So we loaded it back up and I shit you not spent at least an hour trying to replicate the same results.
He dropped the barrel I would shoot it, but it wouldn't explode either, cover the ground in oil and set on fire or occasionally not set on fire at all.
We were in the same exact spot doing the exact same thing as we did before but the ground and environment mechanics seemed to be wonky.

Especially with poison gas, sometimes it would catch fire and explode most the time however it would not, similar with mist.

I for one look forward to OS2 as I enjoyed OS1 a lot more than most games I have played recently (past few years).

D:OS was painfully average.
Story sucked, characters sucked, writing sucked, world building sucked.
Music was forgettable. Voice acting was on the grating side of things, especially in the first towns market.
Level design wasn't anything special.
Combat was really bad. Some of the skills and classes were entirely useless, like the tanking related stuff or the Witch class. Environmental stuff was very inconsistent. The difficulty spikes were annoying to deal with (lol imma teleport u in lava). The whole combo system didn't scale well past the first 3-4 hours of the game. Too many gimmicky scenarios (stealthing past the invincible guys was horrible and unfun). Last boss is basically an escort mission.

And then there's the fucking door you have to spend 10 minutes bashing if you didn't follow a walkthrough for those hard to find quest items you probably missed.

When I reached level 16 or something I thought there would be some really bad ass elemental attacks.
Instead it was
It was just larger spells, boring shit, why not make hybrid skills like charging and leaving a trail of fire or oil behind you.
Why not actually put effort into the skills.

Because you'd have to retcon the series' lore?
There were like four other games that came before OS, mate

These games have a lore?

Did you not read any of the books in the first game?
It went as far to give names to different periods of history.

Dragon commander is best divinity.

Yeah, but none of that makes any sense in the context the sequel.

How are hybrid skills against lore?

WEW LAD

Wew lad

DC is practically just a fucking dating sim.

Really liked D:OS, i bought it after first pirating it to try coop but it was boring, found only russians and retards. Probably better if i had friends to play with. I regretted buying it for that, but then they gave the enchanted edition for free which i guess makes up for it. Played that last month, a fun 70 hours.

I'm probably not going to buy it, but i am going to download and try it at least.

And you understood all that in 2 hours before you uninstalled it? You're fucking retarded. It ran fine if not even better than the standard version, you're just pulling stuff out of your ass. Do the world a favor and kill yourself.

Couldn't even finish it playing with my brother.

You have to coordinate some things pretty well in some fights, i can't even imagine what it's like in co op. One has to be in charge of the other for things to work out, so that takes the fun out of the other person.

Half the fun of Divinity games was the music.

i never played anything other than ego draconish and dragon commander, maybe i'll play the older ones, but to me drangon commander is the last divinity game.

They did do things such as making it so you can't pick Lone Wolf in addition to Glass Cannon. But playing as non-overpowered builds was still fun.

I played both Enhanced and Classic, and I don't actually recall seeing quest markers. If you mean the exceptions, like Evelyn's House, that was also marked in the Original.

I don't know what you're talking about in Enhanced that introduced additional RNG over Classic, but in the first place it's a turn based tactics game where RNG is non-predictability for risk management.

Playing on a ATI Radeon 5770 (GPU series is 7 years old by now) for both of those games, I still got 60 fps @ 1920x1080.

...

Fuck these nu male cucks.

would you goys recomend OS enhanced edition or the original OS?

Wait really?
I didn't know it would be so soon.

Also enhanced edition is better than the original. Good balance and new skills is worth your vague complaint of "no fun".

DD is the only good divinity game

...

Namiuchigiwa no Muromi-san is such a great fuckin' anime

I'm going to assume I'm a retard and simply don't understand english but, did you mean that the Enhanced Edition has better balance and better new skills?
Because I seriously hope you don't do. Seriously.

It should be good after the first one. 4 player co-op will be nice. Hopefully they'll get the class balance right the first time and not have to release an 'enhanced' edition with the rebalance.

I'll add that the enhanced edition balance is still trash between classes and especially between chapters

How are the classes these days?
