divinity original sin

Damn this game o.O

I think i'm doing it all wrong playing with only 2 chars, but made it up to lvl 7 with them.

So question, do you need companions and a team of 4 to play this game, to me it appears so and i'm sort of new to turn-based stuff like this.

Had some fun beating army's 9vs2 so far, but stuff is getting battshit crazy at this point so i re-rolled and i am using companions now, so muuuuuch easier lol.
(actually using one "lone-wolf" char and 1 companion based, but having 3 turns makes it already sooooo much easier)

Any tip's and tricks for this game guy's?

The game gets easier with higher levels. 2 chars can be very strong, "lone wolf" is there for a reason.

I've read that the glass cannon perk trivializes everything in normal diff, in hard diff it's a harder to build around.

I stopped at one point. Had a party of 4 with minmaxed but not broken specs. At some point, I could just faceroll everything with a mage and 2h warrior: Cast haste or whatever it's called there on the warrior and just faceroll everything with him, on hard difficulty. ._.

But I'm complaining on a high level, it has the best RPG combat system in years but the story and dialogues are so bad that I didn't even bother facerolling the rest of the game.

e: One tip I found very useful: Hire a companion for all the crafting stuff and leave him in your "base", don't bother wasting points there for your main party.

Beat it in 2 days easiest game of my life lol did some cheesy ass shit haha like bleed healing etc.

It was quite a blast I enjoyed it a lot.

That's a good game. The combat especially is really well done.

Thx for the tip's y'all, soon the 1 week begins and im back to PoE :p.

Made it to the leoric of this game just now and i will do it tomorrow (dude in the crypt below the church)
it's a fun game and since i don't know all the tricks and the underlying rule-set's it has been fun finding them out so far.

It is however a slow game for me since i am used to rushing stuff, like in PoE rushing act3 merc + maps etc :p or in dota, well just outplaying because of apm etc.

It's weird, i like it because it's very chill and the exploring is cool, but sometimes the combat just irk's me(like when i have to wait for 8 or 9 dudes to each decide there move lol).

Also +1 for the combat complexity system, enjoying the strategy involved a lot. Probably it will be a breeze after one play-through do.

playing it right now man i love it my style tactic and try and error i get my ass kicked so hard sometimes
somehow i have a lvl difference between the first zone and the second of 2 lvl 12 and mobs are 14 guess i skipped too many of those inner party conflicts which you solve with the rock stone game

some ppl complained it has too much dialog at first i thought this aswell now i enjoy it
dos is a game you really can dive into some evenings i only manage to win 5-6 fights

did the death knight thing yesterday was suprised that my tolerance for anger is pretty high :)

another awesome game in this catagory is dragon age origins

^the only thing that i dislike about the dialogue's is that at the start of the game there are voice-overs.

Like the shell you find and ask's to be thrown in the sea etc.

It gave so much character to that dialogue, but after the initial stage of the game it's all read only dialogue.

I think they wanted to do voice-overs but then after beta stage X decided to no longer go true with it, so you have partial voice over's at the start and then it stops.

It's a real shame, but i understand it, would have cost a shit-ton to development.

So in short, they should have removed the initial voice-overs to not put the expectation there :p. I was expecting some fine story telling and got disappointed that i had to read it all instead of listening to it.
(and it's not because i am lazy, but i think the voice tone etc ads a lot of character to the initial conversations)

(ps : the undead king beneath the church has been slain! :), lolled pretty hard when i used battering ram over the twinned fire corpse, instant rip my fighter x.x )

yesterday i figured out why i had the 2 lvl difference gap i explained earlier i forgot the whole icerealm which is 10-12 *facepalm*
fighting lvl 13-14 mobs with lvl 11-12 guys really train your tactics sometimes i saved after each move i valued as sucessfull

visiting the icerealm with lvl 15 felt a bit godlike lol
