Well deserved. Im in Act 3 and the game is phenomenal.

Poor fella has a mind flayer brain parasite egging him on at all times.

Bimbus,

I took off Thursday - Friday to play and that’s all I’ve done all weekend. Back at work now. :(

Lethtor,

Wait, acts? Are there literally like title screens like “Act 2 - The bad thing happens” or do you just call it act three in a storytelling structure kind of thing? Because I played like 15 hours this weekend and only barely made it to the underdark for the first time (no idea how far into the game that is). Howlongtobeat said the main story takes like 24 hours so I figured I’m a good way through the game already.

Can’t wait to get back to it

Underdark is still Act 1. You’re on your way to the Act ending, but not quite there.

Bimbus,

That’s probably an estimate for Early Access. There’s so much more to the game. You’re just scratching the surface of the game :p

PenguinTD,

The no lifer, are you not married or have kids to tend to?

But I am glad that you literally can save anywhere(except cutscenes) and continue.

Lethtor,

Yeah, I literally had the entire Sunday off to play with nothing (urgent) to do. Don’t get many days like that though. Literally played for 13 hours yesterday

So… I’m the only one not playing it?

throwsbooks,

Nope, I’m playing DOS2, since that’s been sitting in my steam library for way too long!

THEN maybe I’ll BG3. If my laptop can handle it…

boletus,

I’m finishing D:OS2 first with another party. Also Larian games are always better a couple months or so after release, so I don’t mind waiting. So no not the only one :)

The higher the pedestal you put somebody on, the further they have to fall.

As someone who hasn’t ever really gotten into cRPGs before, how is the game? Is it hard to get into/is there a big learning curve to this game?

timespace,

It’s heavy on the D&D 5e rulebook, if you have any level of familiarity with that it will all come naturally.

If you don’t, that’s ok too, they did a really good job describing rolls, saving throws, attack rolls, etc, in the guided tooltips.

That’s awesome. Also the lack of micro transactions makes me want to support them more. I kinda wish they had a donate button or something.

magic_lobster_party,

The donate button is buying the game and their previous titles.

PanaX,

Especially Divinity 2: Original Sin.

I almost never buy a game on opening day for full price. But fuck microtransaction nonsense – as soon as the devs made an official statement about it, I was on board.

meldrik,

Buy the DRM free version on GOG if you haven’t already.

Never put companies on a pedestal.
Before Larian, it was Bungie, BioWare, Rockstar, Bethesda, CD Projekt RED.

@InterSynth Exactly, people need to understand companies are there to make money.

Yup. You’ll always end up disappointed when they inevitably behave just like any other company.

Jeżeli celem ma być realne przeciwdziałanie bigtechowi to moim zdaniem to realną alternatywą jest zapraszanie, promowanie i namawianie na media etyczne jak np. PeerTube.

slavistapl,

Tak samo jak na każdym innym sfederowanym serwisie – czytaj Mastodon itd. Próbowałaś tube.pol.social? Z tego co wiem, ma otwartą rejestrację.

Właśnie sprawdziłam

I w dodatku twórcy nie dostaną za to ani grosza.

Yes works.
