I didnt like the way isometric games looked. Turn based combat seemed super boring.. and I prefer futuristic/fallout style rpgs over fantasy style. Then I played DOS2. Now I love it all so much

[@kalgeriax1016]

While me, opposite, i don't like futuristic. Be it games or movie. though i can accept Sci fi element. Too futuristic is too much for me..Even i din't even care to watch and play star wars game. up until now.

[@CL-jq1xs]

@Axel Drans on the other hand i find turn based game like persona 5 too boring to me but DoS is great

[@TexasGreed]

Have you tried Wasteland 2? It's similar and also very good. It's like a spiritual successor to the original Fallout games. If you enjoy that kind of setting and enjoyed DOS2 then you will love Wasteland 2. Also the third one is coming out soon to!

Play DOS1. Much better balance. No armor bars and all your spells work.

I can't even imagine what the game is like without PetPal. Like, 30% of the game just doesn't exist if you can't talk to animals. Not to mention Sir Lora and his wonderful lines. "Run Quercus!

Yeah, I bet. I am currently working on getting the platinum trophy for ps4. Over the weekend I finished the game on honor mode, now I am playing through on story mode to do cleanup.

[@phantomvulpe791]

The devs gave us some sick free mods that changed the experience for me like the summoning mod where you can buff not only your incarnate but also buff your summons like the cat or the bone widow where they not only get buffs but get some ability benefits similar to the incarnate. I am sooo pumped what they will add next

I do however hope it turns out great as if it is successful we get more, which i am all for. I have not tried div 1 or 2 yet i will probably pick up 2 and give it a shot. I am also thinking of pathfinder kingmaker, may get both as looking for a new rpg series. Fancied poe but not quite sold.

I've always loved the idea of playing dungeons and dragons. I've only had a chance to play it twice, never got to finish a campaign and never really had the chance to play with a quality dungeon master. I think this might be the solution for me.

[@Appleseedcast0]

I thought Fort Joy island was the only area in the game from how long I was there, all the quests, and how often I got my ass kicked.

DOS2 really captures the feel of a pen and paper rpg.

[@SmokeADig]

[@PrOtaku123]

My problem is I’m trying to everything the game has to offer, but I need to just go with the flow and let the decisions happen and live with it because I understand now that there is limitless choices to make a true rpg

[@zemittenz1227]

The replay value of this game is insane. Each storied character has their own unique ending on top of the choices you made throughout the game. Not even to mention if you haven't explored every nook and cranny, because usually there's an npc or quest there.

[@sullysosavage365]

It took me a couple playthroughs of the intro to really get my groove but I settled on a storm based mage with Air/water magic and finally hit that "one more hill" syndrome

[@noneofyourbusiness3288]

One of the few games, I would wipe my memory of, just to play it fresh once again. Those 4 man (all beginner) 12h+ sessions were something else :D The puzzle like structure of each arc, with the need to figure out the correct order of encounters (Driftwoodwas my favorite arc) felt really rewarding and exploring never was more fun. Replaying the game is fun, however once you know what you are doing it becomes rather easy after a few level ups unless one is up for a self-imposed challenge like using elemental magic (there are some balance issues with the different skills: an all physical damage party is always preferable, due to the armor system and their access to some of the best skills even early on).

[@ScottSheridan94]

Just started my first playthrough, finally able to get around to it since there’s nothing out until cyberpunk and last of us

[@Hiiiiiiiiieeee]

I think I may have to buy this again on the switch. Already beat it once on pc but its such a good game. Great review btw.

[@shaun4655]

This is still my favorite RPG after hundreds of hours put in, I am in love with it. It may be my favorite game period. My only critique is that i wish stats were more balanced. Warfare is weighed far too heavy in my opinion as opposed to weapon skills.

[@darkpoethd9913]

Just started playing and I hear its a bit more forgiving if you play with a party of 2? Would people agree with this or is it easier with a full party? Also can you do both and and drop party members in and out to play with both options, as in sometimes 2 sometimes 4? :)

Hey, revisiting older games would be a cool series :)

[@Ahreman_egy]

Divinity 2 and Pathfinder kingmaker are my favorite rpgs this year.

[@tommyvercetti9434]

Great, great game. The story has some amazing moments that even with the isometric perspective gave me goosebumps like the candles part in Lohse's quest or what your companions say after the final boss. The combat is very good once you start knowing what you're doing and the characters are very likeable, I actually wish there was more banter between them. My only complains are that it can be a bit obtuse at some points like the battle with the revenant lizards in the Consulate and some bullshit moments like the Aetera fight (the only one I had to cheese) or the spiders in Arx sewers that infect you with eggs of death fog which is literally a weapon of mass destruction in the lore.

[@Sobersunrise]

DOS2 is the GOAT.

[@jeremymorrow9477]

Great review!

[@JustmeandBob]

I've startd to play this game in november of 2020, with 3 of my friends, with small one hour sessions, and in the beginning of january, we had like 20 hours, barely in the middle of driftwood. A the end of one of our sessions, I coldn't wait any longer, and played a new character for 24 hours straight, and ended up finishing the game in just over 90 (first playthrough, I wanted to find everything, etc.). I'm currently playing a second solo-playthrough. I still find small (and big) things I missed the first time through, and I'm not even worried about being bored out of the game or the story for when I'm playing with my friends! that's how awesome I think this game is!

[@Baraz_Red]

I loved Pillars of Eternity 1, so clearly this game will blow me away :P

[@anatoliecazacu7535]

They also have nice editing tools for mods et.c. Spent last 2 days on making a little mod for myself. A belt that just gives me resistance to elemental damage, because sometimes I like to do a quick save and just clear the game of its population completely. With source vampirism even ghosts are in danger.

[@tylerthahandyman]

A lot of great rpgs this decade like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Kingdom Come: Deliverance and The Outer Worlds, but Divinity: Original Sin II - Definitive Edition is still my favourite. What's especially amazing is how well this plays on the PS4. They clearly put a lot of thought into the control scheme when porting it to consoles. The perfect PC to console port.

[@nayyarrashid4661]

I played it on Switch... On my first play through I didn't even get a single crash but second and especially third playthroughs were a nightmare... Crashed like 50 times during 3rd play through

[@tylerthahandyman]

@@nayyarrashid4661 Ah. Didn't even know it was out for the Switch, if I'm honest. I feel like this game would be better on stationary consoles or the PC. The Switch is great, but not every ported title makes sense to play on the Switch, even if the accessibility of playing it on the move is there like how ugly as hell The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt looks, with longer loading times too. The Switch is purposely not that powerful, so I tend to play games that are exclusively developed for it, or have a simplicity to it in graphics and narrative. I've played through it dozens of times now. Love it.

[@Nowski2104]

Tyler Heidel do you think I should get this game or the Witcher 3?

One thing that kinda started to annoy me in the game was that EVERY DAMN fight ended up with everyone standing in NECROFIRE

[@maskoblackfyre]

Nice review! The game is amazing, with superb writing, world building and a plethora of choice very few games of any genre can compete with. Definitely the best RPG I've ever played. Although, to be fair there are "super strong builds". I'd call them OP but they do require actual game knowledge to pull off. For example, I'm running 2 characters on Lone Wolf right now (halfway through Act 2): Fane as Aerotheurge and Sebille as Hydrosophist. Most fights play out like this: Turn one, Sebille goes first because she has 50+ Initiative and over 30 Wits. By the time she's done, most enemies, especially those that go after her and before Fane are either Frozen or completely dead. So Fane shocks the shit out of the rest and then turn 2 is Evasion on both and so the Ranger and Warfare dudes can't hurt them. The casters can't do shit either as both stack a shit ton of Magic Armor. 99% of the fights I played so far haven't lasted more than 3 turns and even that is optimistic. The only fight I had to restart multiple times, which is somewhere around 5, was The Eternal Aetera. I was underleveled and had to figure out where to place her so both of my peeps could dunk on her properly. I'm not saying the game is easy, because it ain't. You gotta learn a lot of systems before you can do the stuff that I described. And I haven't even gone deeper into the crafting and consumables part of the game yet. That's like a whole different level right there. Anyway, I agree with you. It's the RPG of the decade and much more. Also it's very unlikely anyone who plays it once will stop there. It's made to be replayed. Plus, Sir Lora. I mean, that guy is just a ton of fun by himself.

[@Baraz_Red]

I also do not game-master (any game) because I am a perfectionist ; among other reasons. It does take forever if you try to prepare everything in advance, which you sort of have to do if you create a campaign using a video game.

[@ariley162]

I don’t have a PC however I have all other consoles switch Xbox one x & PS4 pro & switch which of those would you recommend playing it on? Half of me says Xbox one x for graphics other half says switch for portability as I mainly play my switch handheld. Any thoughts?

[@laubowiebass]

Great video , thanks .

[@GrippeeTV]

My only gripe with this game was how the damage works in the game. Towards late game a lot of the strategy dissolved in the combat and just became a chain of “who can one hit who first”. I also thought the second half of the game the progression kinda filled down a bit, with the first two acts being beyond exciting finding all of these new abilities and whatnot, and then just having that slow waaaaay down after the second act. Idk if they’ve patched this or reworked the late game combat or damage scaling since I last played it(at launch, beat it within a month and then haven’t really touched it since, but this video has inspired me to)but I hope they have so I can truly enjoy the latter half of the game :) acts one and two were one of the greatest experiences in any RPG I’ve ever played though, and I highly recommend it to any true RPG fan!

If you're doing a new play through there is a mod called like Joyless Beginnings or something where you skip Fort Joy and just start after the [Redacted Spoilers] at like level 10 or something with a good chunk of change.

I agree.... the amount of detail and customization is outstanding. I can lose 2 or 3 days at a time in this game. More role-playing than any other game.
