Divinity: Original Sin 2, Larian's previous game is #13 and they did that one when the studio was a fraction of the size it is now and on a miniscule budget when compared to BG3. It's just a wonderful studio, full of talent and enthusiasm that starts from the top.

    Yeah and dos2 they really figured out the formula. Bg3 feels basically like dos2 but with a lot more story and cinematics, but not to say dos2 didn't already have a ton too. It's a good thing though, both games are amazing.

    I really like that dice roll mechanic they added in BG3, it's highly satisfying. But yeah, mechanically D:OS2 and BG3 are pretty much the same. I hope BG3 makes people give D:OS2 a try.

    Honestly that's my biggest complaint tbh. I just don't like DnD combat. Miss rates are way to high and feel awful. It's way too RNG and I have to save scum like crazy.

    I absolutely adore their feedback/early access system.

    All games should have an early access like that. Not a shitty way to release a crap full of bugs to steam out, but a very analytic/data and feedback base way to improve the game. Basically giving the players a very large demo that can be easily changed in order to improve it.

    I bought divinity 2 when it came out. Haven't played it yet! Still in the back log.
