Many times i’d be selling items or exploring and my friend would be talking through the main quest without my knowledge.Ī lot of the combat is based on chaining effects. The dialog system is also really clunky with multiple actual players. When you add players, you’re literally lowering the actions you as the player take since you’re giving up 50% of your units. I don’t feel that co-op makes a ton of sense in a party based, turn based rpg. They spared every effort when tacking on the co-op mode. Tacked on is precisely the right term too (at least for when i played it). I’m waiting for the console version because I’ve been led to believe co-op really elevates the experience and I prefer co-op on the couch.įrom what i saw, this is one of those games where it isn’t really designed for co-op but they tacked it on anyway at the last minute. Instead, we can start building the world immediately and try out all kinds of things… Put simply, if you were to compare what we’re doing to what Bioware did back in the day with Baldur’s Gate and Baldur’s Gate 2, D:OS 2 is to be our Baldur’s Gate 2 - building further on our equivalent of Baldur’s Gate D:OS. We won’t be “losing time” building the elementary systems that typically take up more than 60% of our development time. For us, this allows for an unprecedented focus on the gameplay. I’m excited (assuming it remains turn-based.)ĭivinity: Original Sin 2 builds further on the foundations we’ve been laying with Divinity: Original Sin (D: OS), and Divinity: Original Sin – Enhanced Edition (D: OS EE). But we can’t reach that dream without your help.Ī Kickstarter begins on August 26th, and there will be a playable prototype at PAX Prime. Now it might finally be within our reach. Something even bigger, better, and more engaging than Divinity: Original Sin. Link.įor a very long time we’ve dreamed of making a certain type of RPG. Larian has announced they are developing Divinity: Original Sin 2. (Starting a new thread, because new game)

Divinity 2 bigger and better
