Please i know you have links and phone number and emails to game companies,please contact larian and ask them to make KotoR 3. Is that not the best idea?
I got into divinity after i saw your elden ring and divinity video. Ive sinced played 230 hrs of divinity and it became my favourite game. This was then beaten by bg3 and honestly ive ner been happier with my gaming habits
Likewise. I would’ve never touched CRPG’s if Fextra wasn’t so convincing in their videos. Now they are borderline my favorite genre. ……almost. FromSoft is still my favorite
@@LuciferHunter-kt7pmabout a year ago I had divinity 2 on my pc played abt an hour and gave up in fort joy. Fast forward I decided to get it on payday for my ps4 AND found out it was co op. It also happens that me and my cousin are literally neighbors so we’ve been playing this and omg😮💨😮💨I’m a shadowblade geo and he’s more using all the pyro stuff. Anyways we both agree this is the best gaming experience we’ve had and we’re only a few hours in😂
Dos2 really is incredible. I was one of those people that got immersed in the FromSoft games (Bloodborne and the Souls series) and no other game could compete for my attention- until I gave Dos2 a try and then I was hooked. I couldn’t stop playing it and thinking about it.
I think of it more as a double edge sword. On the one hand it's great that they're getting talked about. On the other a magnifying glass is looming over there studio right now, watching their every move by the greater gaming world. If they make one single mistake, it's CDPR all over again. And yes, quite an over exaggeration on my part, but the fact that Cyberpunk 2077 got that much scrutiny and still does *even* with all of the fixes and the like, there are some who won't see it that way, let alone play it. Probably a minority in that juncture but there are a group of people who won't play it because of that "press". They can still be themselves but as of this very moment as I'm typing this, literally everyone and their mother and father are watching and listening in on the studio that brought a game considered "questionable" in terms of game design philosophy. By some game studios no less. And we haven't even scratched the surface yet it's not even funny. Much love and respect.
Same exact story for me. Huge from soft fan and I needed something new to play while I waited for elden ring. I played DOS2 and wow, my favorite game of all time. So glad I decided to play it.
Love that you said this. I have been obsessed with from soft for almost 9 years now, and no other game gave me that feeling. Started DOS2 a couple weeks ago and I am obsessed. It’s giving me the same feeling I found when discovering dark souls 1. 60 hours into DOS2 and cat stop thinking about it tbh
@@scottydo0081 haha that’s so awesome! It really is an exciting feeling! Happy to hear that you (and others) are enjoying it so much
I'm hesitant to play this then. I played baldur's gate 3 and had to uninstall it since I can't stop playing it. Its starting to ruin my work/life routine
BG3 wins story. DOS2 wins combat.
I was really waiting for this after people had time to play through BG3. I'm on the final fight in that game, but as I get close to wrapping it up, I couldn't stop thinking about DOS2. It's a much tighter experience for me and I love the characters so much. The gameplay is so refined and yet so fluid. Personally, I think it walks that blade a lot more finely than BG3. Of course, I don't think that makes BG3 better or worse. I'm glad that we have both, but I would urge people not to let the size and newness of BG3 to overshadow DOS2. It really stands on its own and shouldn't be brushed under the rug.
Are you a 5 yo? Characters suck it that game, the written is in the level of a saturday morning cartoon.
I agree that BG3 was hamstrung by the 5E ruleset. if Larion was allowed to go more wild (like with the fixes to the Monk) I think there would have be a ton more build diversity. I look forward to DOS3 as they will likely take the best parts of the BG3 gameplay and rebrand them without WOTC looking over their shoulder.
Agreed 100 percent
Should I play this before bg3 I’m new to crpg ?
@@sharpiesharpie8356 no, you don't have to. They are different stories, so start with whichever one you like. DOS2 is a bit more free-form, while BG3 adheres to the established 5e rule set so its a bit more structured.
Personally I preferred DOS2's action point system and spell cooldown for the combat turns. I was also a very big fan for wit determining initiative. Overall I feel it was a bit more fluid and easier to get the mechanics and build style than BG3. I'm really keen to see what lessons larian take from bg3 for their next game and I hope it also includes another collab with Chris avellone
Same. I don't like the spellcasting in BG3, since everything you do is locked to spell slots that only regenerates on a long rest (some items can give you slots back). DOS2 is not part of DnD, which is why it feels more like an ARPG with turn based combat, which I like. I prefer the skill/spell school system where you can basically create your own class and see how well you can do, over the set classes that BG3 has. Same thing with the loot system. You gain loot more often and it has more stats. In BG3 there is just Armour Class for defense and think like spell attack or saving throws.
Ive always wanted to play DOS 1 and 2 but never got around to it. My wife got me Baldur's Gate 3 for PS5 and I'm absolutely loving it. It's definitely making me wanna purchase the Divinity series now and this video persuaded me even more.
Do it bro. Even better, play DoS 2 with your wife as a duo coop! I'm doing it now and it's honestly insane fun!
I started this game a long time ago but never finished it. After beating bg3 I think I understand Larian better and am ready to go back to DOS2. Thx for reminding me of this game.
I'm glad baldurs gate 3 opened people to these type of games.
Larian studios needs to buy the rights for KotoR,
Who else would you guys trust to make a KotoR 3 after the success of BG3?
holyshit you're right, Larian gotta go kotor
@@Blockdigit totally eh,i tweeted them and trying to ask famous game CZcamsrs hoping that this idea somehow will make it to larian
The current rights owner also has to agree to the deal unfortunately.
I really hope they will do Divinity next.
Imagine Larian buying from Wizarding world the HP license. We would have a DoS2/BG3 system inside the Harry Potter world. I already Imagine origin story "DeathEaters" like Dark Urge style. I know, it's literally impossible, but that would be legendary
I loved bg3 sooo much that I’m looking for something similar & I figured why not look into other Larian studios games (bg3 was my first game in whatever category that is)
I was not into turn based combat ever, until DoS2, it changed everything for me, Larian really did the trick. It was so good, I did multiple playthroughs and cried at the end of each thanks to the epic music and storyline.
As soon as I saw Larian's logo with BG3 I knew I had to play, I bought it the first day of early access due to my trust in their enthusiasm, a trust well placed. 300hr in BG3, and I'm still seeing stuff on CZcams that I didn't know. I hope to get a DoS3 and BG4 in the next decade.
Larian Studios has my money as long as they keep making these awesome games. May their reign never end.
Im entirely new to all this.
I only just found BG3...and your telling me tgeres another like it?!?! LETS GOOOOOOOO
You are 100% correct. After playing DOS1&2, BG3, I think DOS2 is my favorite. Obviously there are big improvements to the cutscenes in BG3, but overall I think I prefer the DOS2 combat a bit more, and the story is more lighthearted for the most part.
I haven't finished D:OS 2 yet but I love the fact that being Undead can be picked as something to build your character on.
You need to pick Fane as a party member for a playthrough. He has some of the best dialogue in the game. Undead sound like they'd be a handicap but they really aren't.
Question:
Does DOS2 have a similar mechanic to the bloodstones in which you have to find them all to access the end game? When I got to the locked door in DOS and was not permitted to finish because I missed some stones along the way, I just said fuck it and turned off the game not wanting to backtrack the whole thing. Just went back to painting my Malifaux models.
No
It's great to find an honest person who knows everything. Thank You!
Best game ever. The music is so captivating and immersive. Excellent narrator, characters, and story line. The combat is extremely dynamic and fun. Lots of replay ability.
100% agree up there with one of the great games. Fort joy is such an epic start
I enjoy both games but I favor BG3 pretty heavily. The cinematic presentation goes a long way for deeper immersion for me. DOS2 also has this sort of goofier vibe to it while still having very mature themes, it doesn't take itself as seriously as BG3 much to it's detriment in my opinion. I like the combat more in BG3 as well. I found the surface effects in DOS2 combat overdone to an annoying level and the armour system felt meaningless. I think the divinty action point system could be superior to 5e but it needs a lot of work. I hope when they inevitably make DOS3 they take all the best elements from both games and come up with something all together better than both
I just beat it for the first time last night - definitely became one of my favorite games of all time
did you use custom char or origin?
did you use custom char or origin?
@@xylan9543 I used a custom character but I'd probably recommend using an orgin character for the extra story instead.
I Played DOS 2 for 740 hours in local coop with my wife. We love the game so much. BG 3 is awesome and we are about to end our 2nd journey, but it doesnt give me the DOS2 vibes. I love how u actually feel gettin stronger through Equipment, i miss that in bg3. Also the final fight of BG3 didnt Catch us that much.
The raphael fight is by far the best fight in bg3 look forward to it every time but ima get divinity now that I have 600 hours in bg3
Got into Divinity 2 rather by accident, looking for a game I could play cooperatively with my nephews. I'm a long time D&D ttrpg player, and had introduced them to the mmorpg Neverwinter. Which we had played extensively.
What sold me on it was a reviews calling it the spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate, including a review of yours. Oh, and your build guides.
I was already playing Divinity 2 when BG3 was announced, and the fact that Larian was making the game instantly sold me on it.
Amazing game! I hope Larian makes a divinity original sin 3 some day.
I bought DOS2 at launch, played a little, found it difficult, gave up at the beginning of the game. A friend came to my house and asked to show the game, then he bought the game, liked it and encouraged me to play. After understanding the mechanics, I finished the game with all possible builds in honour mode, and then using mods, it was the game I played most at the time. It's funny that I almost gave up on it at the beginning, I would be missing out on one of the best games I've played in my life
my story with DS2sofs being my first souls game
Currently on Act IV for my first playthrough. This game is so much fun and like Fextralife said, if you are a fan of Elden Ring, this is an absolute must play
why couldnt you just said act 4?
I also started to Divinty O.S. 2. and aI strat it after finishing Elden Ring. That's perfect
Elden Ring wtf?
@@PkOrPvpHe did say act IV 😂
@@PkOrPvp to gatekeep anyone who failed their DC 2 History check
You are indeed perfectly correct :)
I was honestly really bummed when the lions share of environmental effects from DOS2 didn't make it to BG3. the idea of spells and abilities changing based on the elemental surfaces gave a ton of variety to playstyles and class combos for the party. I feel it most in the Archer archetype as BG3 archers feel really flat versus the mobile "debuffing" playstyle of DOS2 archer.
I cant ignore DOS2's endgame and the creative decision of restricting the group for the final chapter as it felt like a betrayal of everything building up to that point, however the gameplay before that point was 10/10 for me. DOS2 is the reason why BG3 ran so smooth so hearing that DOS3 is on the horizon is really exciting.
Regarding your issue with the endgame, that kind of depends on your actions throughout the game leading up to the finale. I conversely appreciate that ignoring or overruling your companions can quite easily lead them to abandon you in turn at the end - but if you stick by them, they’ll stick by you and you’ll enjoy a much larger party at the end.
I really couldn’t stand the plot-twist dumps at the last minute of the narrative however. Story-wise, the game turns into a dumpster fire after act 2, which is a real shame.
@@Saxpunch the whole "Only one" plotline is where I have issue with the game. The entire rest of the game you are exploring your companions backstory, building relationships and group synergy then all of that is cast aside at endgame. Swapping to mercs to make it through to the end, or just saying "screw it" and rolling a Lone Wolf build completely changed the game for me for the worse. at least in BG3 we can build those relationships and see them fully play out by the end.
If you played early access, it seemed like initially they were going to do more with elemental surfaces but players didn't like it. It is definitely a charm for DOS, but doesn't play quite as well with D&D.
I love ‘em. Actually going back through these games with 100% guides and my it’s awesome to see all this cool shite I totally missed
What happened to Fextralife in Twitch ? Didn't live for a while ?
BG3 had a weakness compared to DOS2 in that the combat was bound by DND 5e which honestly isnt the most optimized battle system for videogames. Im really looking forward to what Larian puts out next woth the experience and recognition they have now
not a weakness, div 2 is completely broken
Man i beat dos2 back in 2019 in about a week from and it was one of the best Western rpg experiences I've ever had and really filled that dragon age origins sized hole in my heart.
I ve not bought BG3 yet but I am on my 4th run in DOS2 and I still discover new stuf, best game for me since WoW
Going back through how much effort it was to even making DoS:1 reminds me how much more Larian deserves all of the success they’re currently having with BG3. This company did not have it easy for a long time, kudos to them.
Currently about half way through dos1. I cant wait to play dos2 almost as much as bg3 tbh.
Fextra really min-maxed their engagement with that title and I respect the hustle.
I’m currently playing it while waiting for the BG3 release on Xbox
Probably. Maybe because it was original, it managed to keep me more engaged than bg3 somehow, but I'll still get through bg3.
Just bought this game on a sale after playing bg3. any of you guys in the comments got any suggestions for a good starter build?
Are you going to make any new builds?
So is it worth it on PS5? I have £10 free from ps store and games on sale atm for.14.99 so worth 4.99 extra.
My mand advocating for everybody 😂
At this point, fair to say your opinion is actually unbiased 😏
“We knew we had to redo it” that says all about how they’re different to other studios. Awesome ppl! Love the game! Love the studio keep rocking guys!
Just got DOS2 on sale. About to start my first ever playthrough. Got BG3 trial, and the 2 hours flew by. Not bought the full game tho.
next time Larian could make a little bit less linear story progression. Kinda like WoW does with the starting zones where you choose a zone to start in. Or like Mass Effect did in they gave you a choice of multiple leads to pursue in different zones. After a few playthroughs some of which are completed some of which are not, im sick of the starting zone :D.
I played only DOS 1 and BG3 but not DOS2. Time to try it. With the premiere of BG3 I become huge fan of Larian.
WTF?
You're about to lose at least a month of your life to this game.
In fact, I envy you. I wish I could forget the game and go back to playing it all over again fresh.
@@AlanSmith88888😢😮
So should I try DOS2 after playing hours of BG3?
Yes
I hope you guys make a Great Hammers are the best weapon video for Elden Ring
I really liked the potential PVP during the finale, I wish they had done the same thing in BG3
I only have a ps4 and have been playing BG3 at my bfs house, going to play this to scratch my itch in the meantime 😍
i looooove the combat system in DOS2, especially on tactician its very challenging BUT i will say the armor system is a bit daunting at times since it limits the way you approach fights most of the time
Im currently playing DOS2 and I am amazed at how good it is. I recently got a Steam Deck OLED and got introduced to these kind of games. I’m absolutely loving this game and it runs and looks incredible on the Steam deck OLED. I prefer it over BG3 which I beat on my PS5
Blood magic alone makes it the best
My favorite game of all-time. Period. I know it's not perfect, but the amount of fun I've had playing solo and with people makes me unable to care it's not flawless.
Even don't hold a candle to Quake, Deus ex of Fall out 2. LOL.
Is it better than BG3?
I picked in the last Black Friday sales on Steam, along side the first, and I plan on playing all of them once I am done with the Path of Exile campaign.
They are different especially in combat.
The combat system in
DOS2 is not exactly D&D.
Instead of having specific slot for movement, action etc, it has total points that u can use any way u like. For eg, if u are an archer and not moving much, u can use the points for attacking. U can attack multiple times depending on how many points u have and how much each action cost.
U can even use the whole points for movement if u want.
It also has armor system where the enemy has physical and magical armors. U have to compeletely damage either of the armors before u can damage the hp. So u kinda have to stick to 1 type of attack (physical or magical) to be effective. For eg, if the physical armor has already broken, but the magical armor is still intact, if u attack with magical attack, it won’t reduce the hp.
It also uses cooldown system, whereby the spells has certain length of cooldown times (how many rounds) before u can use it again, instead of having specific number of spells u can use per rest like in BG3.
There’s no rest per se in DOS2. U don’t go to camp to rest etc.
There’s this bedrolls that u can find, which u can use to rest and completely restore your hp.
Apart from that, it has similar interaction with the surrounding as BG3.
There’s lots of high grounds, similar to BG3.
There’s no cut scenes like BG3, but everthing is voice acted.
@@azku To add to the above points,
Level design is much better in BG3. There isn't anything like the Goblin base or Moonrise towers in DOS2.
The narrative tone is more morally gray than BG3 but at the same time not as impactful as BG3.
Companions in DOS2 are interesting in that each of them have unique goals and motivations compared to BG3 where it is all some variety of freeing your companions from their abusers. But even so companions in BG3 have more dialogue, unique romance scenes, party banter (companions in DOS2 will barely acknowledge each other) and the cutscenes make BG3 companions more memorable.
You can't shove or grab enemies like in BG3. You can teleport enemies around but there are no chasms for instant KOs though there very rare opportunities when you can teleport enemies to a place or surface that can kill them instantly.
Also you can't talk your way out of combat as often in DOS 2.
Melee oriented builds have more fun skills in DOS 2 than BG3. For instance being a rogue in BG3 is mainly focused on hiding and using sneak attacks whereas in DOS2 you have multiple skills unique to rogues like leaping behind an enemy prince of persia style and striking them from the back or attacks that can penetrate through armor, induce a status effect making health potions toxic to the enemy, etc.
And multiclassing is much more seamless in DOS2 as it has a point based system.
Magic builds are better in DOS 2 as they can cast more than once in their turn. You often don't have to waste an entire turn to cast a buff. After a relatively powerful AOE attack you will still have enough action points to cast simple buffs like armor spells or heal or teleport to another location.
It's a personal thing but I prefer BG3's more "open style" Magic compared to DOS2's heavy focus on elemental styles.
The final act in DOS2 is underwhelming compared to BG3's overwhelming final act. There doesn't feel like there's much to do.
Ending in BG3 was much more satisfying and conclusive. DoS 2's ending didn't make sense to me even if you got the best one.
owned this game for a few years gave up after a couple of hours because i thought i would never leave fort joy lmao, finally went back to it and I'm now in act 2 woo hoo, Baldur's gate 3 probs the reason i came back to this
Its on my list, After I finish Pathfinder Kingmaker, and start and get through Wrath Of the Righteous.
a new walkthrough with rpg division would be awesome!
You are perfectly correct ❤
Dos2 and bg3 are both great. Watching this video though, im reminded just how much i prefer dos2 spell icons. Sounds a bit silly i know.
not at all its the one thing i did not like on bg3 during alpha and beta and EA and the icons never changed
So many things are better in Divinity than BG 3 because of the D&D mess they put in it. We only wanted the Forgotten Realms world to play in, not the terrible D&D mechanics that do not belong in a computer game.
I would love to see a breakdown of what I consider the best quest reward that isn't a piece of gear. Lohse's song. I remember sitting in amazement, with my friend, as she broke out the lute after killing the Doctor, I got chills up my spine. As a Boomer Gamer, who started with pong, I still think that moment, that fantastic song, that unusual payoff; was one of the best quest rewards of all time.
I got the bundle with the first and second ones. I bought the soundtrack too. I love a good soundtrack. I've barely started to play but am loving Baldur's Gate 3 too.
I would love steam workshop support for BG3 allowing for custom maps / campaigns
DOS2 was the very first CRPG I bought! Fextralife was also the very first guide I also followed when creating my characters' skills and abilities same with BG3. Thank you for all your hard work creating all those guide.
Does Divinity 2 have controller support like BG3. I actually prefer the controller on BG3 on PC, it just feels more immersive
It does, it's even better than bg3 version in my opinion :)
BG3 better comments in coming.
Especially now that Minthara is romanceable without resorting to mass murder after the new update
It’s true though. It it better. It’s better than everything. Only Dragon’s Dogma 2 is in with a hope! LOL!
Bg3 player who is gonna play this because of it lol
BG3 is so much better
I want to try this because BG3. I need more Larian
Knew this game was making the list, will BG3 aswell?
Picked up DoS 2 on sale just now on steam. I have zero worries that I won't like this game. already 132 hours into BG3. Larian got me back into turn based RPGs and i'll forever thank the studio for that.
Larian's Divinity 2 - Dragon Knight Saga back in like 2008 was pretty good - a bit like oblivion
I am going to play the shit out of this after BG3. Do you guys think its better or worse though?
I'm definately doing another playthrough of DOS1 and 2 after I'm done (for now) with BG3
can you compare DOS2 with BG3 please?
Yes, play bg3. DoS1 better than DoS2.
I'm playing BG3 already, I tried DOS2 a few years ago but dropped the game after 20 hours or so. BG3 is going stong with 100 hours so far :)
During a trade, why can't we switch or combine character's items and gear?😮
OMG I literally and I do mean literally came back from a shop where I picked... Divinity Original Sin 2 😮
I'll yield to none
I never played it. You are obviously correct, though.
I played DoS2 to prepare for BG3 and I love both! I love the freedom DoS IP has, but BG3 has my heart. I’m sure DoS3 with a BG3 or bigger scale/presentation will evolve the CRPG/RPG genre even further. Can’t wait for Larian’s next two games. Let em cook.
DOS 1 is good, DOS2 is excellent and BG3 is the best RPG I've ever played. They have set the bar very high for DOS3. Luckily I have BG3 to keep me busy until DOS3 comes out.
Absolutely YES !!!
My surprise is that there are people like me who think this game is the most perfect game ever made.
Agreed , I'm one of them. This game is one of the most special games ever made, and I enjoyed it more than bg3. To be honest, i especially didn't like that everyone in your party is bissxual in bg3?? it's weird and creepy 😮 they are trying to appease all audiences too much. It's definitely a bit overboard just wish was more normal in that sense 😕
It's just that Larian is one of the player/customer friendliest and transparent publishers at the moment.
Steam Winter sale makes this very easy to pick up!
i started with bg3 then went to dos2 because of how much i enjoyed it. i love both games, i’ll definitely be playing both to exhaustion. i do think that bg3 worked a lot harder on the companions and interactions, they had something to say about everything and it really felt like they were there with you for the journey and growing with you. dos2 had great companions, too, but they only really had something to say when main story or personal quest events happened. it also broke immersion a bit when NPCs kept repeating the same dialogues to each other over and over again (driftwood i’m looking at you). dos2 had a much more fun and in depth combat system imo tho. i personally enjoyed bg3 more, but both are a couple of my favorite games.
Larian did early access just right. I wish the is model was followed by more companies.
They weren’t afraid to do it for more than one year but they didn’t let it go too long to the point where the game was practically never going to be released.
I never played games like this before.
Then Baulder's Gate. I couldn't afford it, my computer would run it poorly anyway.
So I bought this game, on sale.
OMG, what an amazing experience. I had no idea!
I am now playing the first divinity original sin game, it was on sale, and it's just as good!
One day I will play Baulder's Gate, and will enjoy it as much I'm sure.
As a huge fan on Bg3 and after completing it twice if went Into dos:2. Wow no less brilliant…❤
Anyone for a switch online coop campaign?
DOS2 is absolutely spectacular! The only thing I didn’t like was some enemies having separate physical and magic damage shields. I also love BG3 and am a veteran of that whole series. Still, I actually like DOS2 the best. Larian is by far my favorite studio these days.
After hundreds of hours in bg3 i think im gonna give this franchise a shot.
Playing Pathfinder 2 WotR in the middle I realized I was missing something... Something DOS2 had. So I decided to stop my 1st WotR playthrough I came back to DOS2 for my 3rd one instead :D
Also why wouldn't they kickstarter the next one knowing they would secure the funds almost immediately :)
It's really good, but needed more battles , like after you clean fights there are no enemies respawning back in the location unless you progress to a new region.
Will play this on switch, any tips?
Play smart with the combat, and be patient with learning the combat. It's difficult at first.
i only played early access in BG3.. and from start i knew divinity 2 was superior in both story and world building.. it has that golden age of gaming vibes..
honestly this format and their system has really shown larian is a top tier game studio with a chokehold on this genre. And I desperately want them to dip their toes in differrent genres of tabletop, like maybe we can finally get a shadowrun game worth caring about
So I will say BG3 is better than dos2 as much as the next guy... But I wont lie when I first started playing BG3 I felt myself wanting to go back and play DOS2 again xD
Yes it is! Thanks for clicking on the video.
For me the combat is better than BG3 because its more flexible and more fun with all the elements.
But in terms of story BG3 is better because its more streamlined for me
I played DOS 2 with my partner while BG3 was still in early access and to this day is my favourite co-op experience in a game yet. I've done additional playthroughs since and would definitely rank this in my top 5 games of all time. It's definitely not perfect, the later game can feel less difficult and I prefer the DnD ability/classes but would definitely recommend to anyone that hasn't played already.
I found Divinity Original Sin 2 to be more easier to play than the prequel even in hard mode.
Glad to see DOS2 regain your interest.
What is a kickstarter for a company that won game of the year lol
you are perfectly correct
cant wait for DOS3 man..
