    I said it once before but this is exactly the game that needed to come out after Final Fantasy 16, and Dragon Age Dreadwolf’s bullshit is going to look even worse in this game’s shadow. Just to shut up the think pieces and comment sections that claim RPGs becoming God of War clones is somehow the only “modern” direction to take them.

    But it doesn’t have to be a once in a decade thing. We can drop a great RPG or even a good shooter every couple years.

      I meant … it’s not. There have been 3 larian games in the last 9 years, and all 3 have been great. And they’re not the only good games or RPGs. So the title is just the usual click bait crap

        I played Divine Divinity some when it was released. It was interesting but clunky. It was no Neverwinter Nights.

        I want to see us as gamers get away from sequelitis and get full games again without lock boxes or cash shops or battle passes. The excitement of Doom or Battlefield 2 or Elden Ring.

    I hope this inspires people to check out Larian’s Divinity: Original Sin series.

          DOS2 combat allowed you to do goofy stuff and was fun casting spells. BG3 is more 1 turn 1 action and much slower and methodical, I mean makes sense, it is DnD afterall, it’s designed for tabletop.

    I dropped it around the 25h mark, but even I can agree it is a good game that’s probably the current best in the genre
