Leanaunfurled 10/04/17 1:39:57 PM #1:	Well, it's between that and Xenoblade Chronicles 2. But my point is OS2 was just a blip I wasn't gung-ho on buying right away or this year at all. It was gifted to me, I started it, and...I didn't stop until I was done. It's the Uncharted 2 to Uncharted 1. The Baldur's Gate 2 to Baldur's Gate. The Borderlands 2 to Borderlands. You get it. Though if you're digging the Divinity/BD/Divinity 2 lore with Lucian and Damien, OS2 takes it out back, gives it the bird, then beats it to death. Larian basically tossed out the lore from the main Divinity games and rebooted the world. Part of me hates them for it, the other part of me likes what they did with the story and lore of OS2. I loved where the story was going with Divinity 2, and all I needed was for Divinity 3 to happen and close everything up. A part of me is always going to be sad that that's extremely likely never going to happen now. Arhu isn't even a fucking cat anymore. Getting riled up again so I'll move on. I rocked my created Shadowblade, who focused on Scoundrel/Aero. Fane was Necro/Hydro. Red Prince was full Warfare and destroyed shit with sword and shield. Lohse was Summoner/Pyro. There's a great variety of builds you can do, pushed along with the fact that you can go to your ship and change your stats any time you want, for free. I mostly abused that for persuading someone for a conversation. Combat can take a while, as it's turn-based and relies pretty heavily on strategy, especially for higher difficulties. Each encounter was satisfying, however. On Classic, enemies weren't pushovers but they also didn't steamroll me. If they did, I changed what I was doing, how I was starting the encounter, how the field was, etc. etc. Except for the burning witch, fuck that bitch. The dialogue is typical Larian's mix of seriousness and lighthearted, which I've always been pretty fond of. The maps are beautifully done and there's a shitload to explore. I did my best to find everything and even then, I'm 100% sure I missed stuff still. Replayability is out the wazoo between different party makeups and gameplay paths you can take. OST is charming with their new composer (R.I.P. Kirill Pokrovsky) with some standout tracks. I'd say my biggest gripe, apart from the lore thing mentioned above, is the half-assed romance. I loved Fane a bunch, he liked me, we had that romance scene at the end of Act 2, but that's basically where it all goes. A romance scene midway through. There wasn't any fulfilling conclusion at all, despite, at the end, us both wanting to travel some more. It basically ended with a "k bye!" I admit to reloading about ten times, trying different dialogues with him, trying to get him to come with me. Anyway yeah, game is fantastic in general. I do miss persuading people on games, talking about the games, and between the quality of this one and it being part of the barely breathing CRPG genre, I had to come and plug it. --- Currently Playing: Monster Hunter XX http://i.imgur.com/mfuN9AI.png http://i.imgur.com/nyP8pdG.jpg <cite>Leanaunfurled posted [p:887800611] in You should...

There are references to the others and a few returning characters, but nothing more than "Woo I know what they just referenced!" for previous fans. If you're on the fence and want to give it a go in a cheaper way, there's always the first Original Sin. Or hell, even Divine Divinity, which is $6 or under a $1 when on sale. DD has a different combat system, it's action, and much easier to cheese if you want to. It's also way easier overall after you get past the tutorial dungeon (which is oddly challenging).
