Some of the game's audio is weird here and there due to some issues with a false automated copyright claim on the in game audio (confirmed to be false by Larian and the copyright holder). The claim was resolved eventually but to avoid future problems I used a tool offered by youtube to remove the claimed music from the video while retaining the voice acting used in those portions.

[@heliquackterstudios]

As an older gamer who doesn't have the luxury of time. It can be months between sessions... this was extremely helpful as I completely forgot what happened in Act 1 - Thank you!

[@rogerh2694]

Lol yea, best to play by piecemeal everyday at least to maintain the story etc and immersion with all the dialogue.

[@jackhummel3249]

It's unfortunate that so few people make videos about this game but luckily the one video that summarizes the story is 10/10 Great vid!

[@beaawsome2211]

Fun fact, within the fight on the ship you can teleport, fly, ect to the other ship and attack Dalis to force her to show she is a dragon knight and to instantly teleport the ship

[@dannyb9209]

Even better...you can kill her and her buddy if you teleport them into the middle of your ship and use mass corpse explosion

[@ezetommytommy9974]

great video, i can't believe that no one tried to explain the story before

[@MortismalGaming]

With these long isometric rpgs you'll usually find that no one ever wants to put in the time it takes to actually make videos like this. This is 3 hours of what was easily 80hrs of work. So you get plot summaries with few details 🤷

[@startopology]

@@MortismalGaming Piggy-backing off this comment, as I just now (finally!) finished DOS:2 and found out -- through this review, that I missed (or forgot) so many connections and plot points. Really highlights how incredible a feat this game was. Thanks for your effort on explaining things!

[@Blasted2Oblivion]

@@MortismalGaming There is one channel. GamerthumbTV that does story stuff like its a documentary. I have seen several people do 30 minute or 1 hour videos of the "full resident evil timeline" and that guy did it in a 12 part series, most of them are more than an hour long. I say this so that you know you have a kindred spirit in explaining video game stories properly.

[@floppydisk921]

I know im 3 years late, but man this game. One of the few that has 1. captured me into a story and actually read all the dialogue 2. felt something for the characters, and 3. made me question my descisions as good or bad. Truly one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. Also starting a second playthrough and not using the same characters feels so wrong too me but that just might be me

[@GenericYTFan]

Dude sorry to butt in but you are spot on. I finished my first playthrough recently with Fane, and I'm already sure I'll be using him again for the second, basically to fix my eff ups 😅

[@haraldschuster3067]

@@GenericYTFan - If you go for achievements, you need certain party combinations. Basically every party member has 2 options (save at the right time to get both in one go) and only Fane has more and needs to be the player's character. Most other characters can be party members and still get the achievements. But who wants to be any other than Fane? Mr. Inbuilt-Lockpick, let me fake my death and could I please have some more more Deathfog and poison? ^.^ The only downside to Fane is you having to live with the fact that you're responsible for all the mess.

[@Threeredheadstudios]

I put this game down awhile back and was overwhelmed when I tried to pick it back up. Thanks for the recap!

[@Tre_stories]

lol me too I tryna figure out what’s going on

[@ArunKumar-oz9yv]

Best DOS2 content on the internet. Trust me gym, I’ve looked around a lot.

[@maettu937]

This is the longest video i ever watched in full length! Great Work!

[@alexsamurai1230]

Just up to the Nameless Isle part; In my current game I fed the Sallow Man to Sebille and it revealed all the gods' alignments straight off. This game really does have great non-linearity!

[@SleepyOmel]

I've got over 350 hours in DOS2 and never done a full playthrough so this has gotten me into gear to finish it and actuqlly learn wht's happening

[@CurvaceousCrow]

@r_nelly1180 That's cute, I spend that long naming my profile in the main menu 😎 We are not the same

[@FreedomLovingFox]

You will love it! And be sad when it’s over Iike I am :/

[@rogerh2694]

I feel ya on being sad when done lol. So immersed in Rivellon, lore is so deep and detailed...

[@nevilleaimar]

Geez I had over 8 playthroughs of this game and still your video shows things I never knew about, goes to show how delicate and well-made this game really is. Thank you for this great video, makes me want to replay the game again.

[@bertojr8987]

​@@ChristmasLore bit late, but to clarify, in the ship you can choose for good your companions, all of the origins characters will be there and you can choose 3 more of then

[@makidiaz3894]

This is the magnum opus of this channel. I just played this for the first time today for 10 hours straight. Time to finish the night with this video. Time to get comfy

[@fernwood]

I had no idea. I played (casually) until I escaped Ft Joy into the swamps. I thought that was the first act, and the whole gang was the island. I got bored and gave up, but after watching your video I’m playing from scratch to enjoy the full story.

[@ArunKumar-oz9yv]

Best DOS2 content on the internet. Trust me gyz, I’ve looked around a lot.

[@shane3744]

Great and thorough video! I had gotten to Act IV and trailed off the game for a year and a half. This was a perfect recap before jumping back in to finish the game.

[@mrBobTek]

Iam rly sorry to see people are not anymore into this masterpiece. GJ for the hard work on the video. Soon Baldur's gate will be ON and i hope u keep makin videos on Larian Studios games. Good luck with your channel! : ) I will check your next stuff for sure! : )

[@louisminati]

Great video my man. Finally playing after years of not having a PC compatible for it. Appreciate your break down of things

[@PinkAmpharos]

Beautifully done. Despite having played the game many many times I learned a lot and you really pieced it all together in a way that made sense.

[@tauami1]

Great video! Helps a lot to understand the gigantic universe of divinity. Tks for it!

[@TooBigBirdy]

Found your channel while looking for opinions on "Tyranny", and ended up getting it. Now, I spent 5 hours watching your Divinity Lore videos...go figure that out lol... I appreciate the effort you put in your content and will stick around to see your channel getting the audience it deserves, cheers!

[@j.p.9522]

Would you recommend Tyranny or DOS2?

[@TooBigBirdy]

@@j.p.9522 I would recommend both games. In my opinion, DoS2 is a better game, but Tyranny has a lot to offer as well.

[@Rufiowascool]

Holy shit - you fucking killed it. This video is GREAT! Thank you for putting it together!

[@jaimecalderon6077]

Quick side note: In the cave of Mordus, at the point where you get jumped by the Voidwoken to get cocooned, it is actually possible to win the fight. The key is to avoid being in line of sight since their ability to cocoon requires seeing a character much like any ranged ability. I did so by utilizing one of the many steam summoning capabilities as I had 2 characters in my party, with Lone Wolf, who had specs and spells in the fire and water trees respectively and managed to do so in combination with smoke to keep my characters from becoming targetable. I am sure there was some luck involved in it but it is definitely possible. I believe there is a hole you can uncover with Wits that will appear so you can go into the dungeon proper after or before said fight. I found it after the fact.

[@drajion8976]

I’ve played through this game twice and just finished the Wreckers Cave and had no idea that there was even a “cocooned” in the cave moment. This game is so damn cool.

[@alinajustme11]

I'm so glad you made this video it's an easy and enjoyable way to understand more about the world of dos2 and it's lore Thank you for taking the time and effort to make it 🙂 much appreciated 👍

[@heronofalexandria91]

You can also kill Raimond in the port of the black pits. He is in there with another white magister and two scource hounds guarding some black ring prisoners. That way you can use his letter to get around easier when you’re lower level.

[@liesalllies]

This is awesome! Just finished the game for the first time and since it took 200+ hours over about a month I couldn't really track the whole story. I love all the details and how rich this game is, it also really makes you feel like you're choices matter (whether they do or not).

[@kezron88]

Love this channel and your approach to your videos! DOS is a fucking masterpiece, one of the greatest games out there. Can't wait for BG3

[@shanvithmadhirala412]

Thanks a bunch for making this video!

[@TeeHaa0032]

It shames me. I played DoS and DoS in co-op with a friend til the end, but I needed your vid's to actually understand these stories fully. They were just too much for me. :( So thanks a lot!

[@DamashiTheKaotic]

My hope is that source for all is the canon ending, because Lucian getting away with all his terrible choices just doesn't feel right. Also we do see blessed surfaces, and other source related things in Divinity: Fallen Heroes pre release material.

[@IamSparloo]

“Hey there’s a tyrannical tree, trying to take over” 😂😂

[@MortismalGaming]

Divinity Lore in a nutshell

[@Zathurious]

Okay, I appreciate this video because I'm one of the players who couldn't get through the game myself. I know these are just excuses, but I needed to look up solutions to the puzzles. Ultimately, I could not get past the difficulty spike in act two when you go to the mines. Thank you for the storybook version of this game. I can only hope that if the title you mentioned that was put on hold does come out, these issues will be addressed.

[@MortismalGaming]

It was announced as cancelled just recently Im afraid

[@EternalKvK]

Im a huge BG3 fan, but man is it hard to actually force myself to love this game. I tried to play it like 3 different times in different months, and quit each time. So i decided ill just watch this 3 hour video about the story instead of playing it myself.

[@SebastianBeresniewicz]

The time and effort you put into this is incredible. Thank you!

[@paulstein8854]

if the basic run-down is 3 hours, imagine how long the in-depth analyses for this game are going to be 10 years down the line

[@MindIsLikeFullMoonInFall]

I love these lore videos! I went back and watched DOS1 supercut and I enjoyed it a lot, thank you!

[@MjollTheLioness-o4y]

Never have I underestimated a game so much. I went in fully believing that I would probaly not like the game because of the top-down turn-based combat, only to end up absolutely loving it, so much so that it has made me want to play other top-down turn-based crpgs. This game reminded me to give games that are outside my usual comfort zone a chance.

[@Skunkamola]

Godly job with the video my friend

[@haraldschuster3067]

22:00 - There is still a bug in the game where party members may not learn the Bless skill after talking to the statue in the vault. Check once you have left the realm that every character knows Bless. Send those who don't to the statue and have *them* touch it. They'll go into a little sleep sequence and will know Bless once it expires. Fane seems to be especially prone to that problem when taken as a party member.

[@tritone11]

It took me 2 playthroughs to understand whats happening- I love this game. i don’t wanna leave Rivellon

[@pcarmy4351]

man I love your voice, it's so nice to listen to you talk. amazing video with a shit load of effort put into it!

[@Fimbul_Crafts]

My most favourite game of all time. It is such a delight to play (although, I tend to skip the fort joy part via mods nowadays) and I love the depth of exploration. I found so many interesting things (most amazing being the candle room and Lohses song...). I am currently waiting for BG3 to be fully released. Hope this will fill the void DOS2 left.

[@MrSneakyGunz]

Your work is quite terrific Sir. Keep up the fine job..

[@iolol2023]

just finished my first playthrough and came to realize how much I've missed! Never met windego after the prologue, and despite getting the swornbreaker, no one could use it. Thanks for filling the gaps. Such a fun game

[@silverking8460]

Thank you for the kraken fight guide.

[@babyboy1971]

I’ve never played this game and now I must. Thank you.

[@TBAGCLAN]

AMAZING VIDEO!! Subscribed because of it

[@brentbentKRFP]

Excellent synopsis of such an epic story!

[@Firefighter3935]

A vid like this for BG3 would be incredibly awesome

[@haraldschuster3067]

BG3's story is shallow as a sheet of paper compared to DOS2. That was one of the things that disappointed me.

[@Antonin1738]

I love how a lot of the fights are "its a bit difficult or a pain" lol

[@cat-oo1ed]

me seeing him leave the gold cup on the ship: *Intense screaming*

[@grrizzzy7]

1:00:00 even easier way to win the fight is to cast cryo stasis on him which makes him invincible and also skips his turns so he never uses source to summon voidwokens. Then just kill the 3 magisters

[@brycejohn2283]

Wtf how does this guy only have 44k sub he's damn good!

[@grrizzzy7]

Tarquin is also one of the best traders in act2 and the only one ive found that sells runes and frames in act2

[@acole5975]

The ancient tree makes me think of a hist tree. Sentient, ancient and dangerous.

[@razorg4421]

1h 32 mins. I used Spirit vision after defeating Alexander. I convinced him to help us & he told me the order of the statues to open the academy. Its also an interesting conversation where he proves (to me anyway) that he isn't a bad guy.

[@bkz6248]

dude... amazing video

[@IndieClox]

Love yr work man! keep it up yr awsm!!!

[@PerAulin]

Really like your content and hope this channel becomes even more popular. Constructive criticism, I wish you wouldn't use "actually" and "basically" as often as you do. Hope I don't come off as rude. All the best!

[@tien5tri]

My friend and i just finished the game yesterday. That was such an adventure. We tried to do alot of the puzzles blind but we screwed up and ate lord arhu and didnt get the "POWER" hint in room of death. Spent over 2 hours trying to figure out that crap and had to google it :( Had a blast finishing it :)

[@johnduncan4287]

Such an incredible video, I love it! Only thing(s) I really found wrong were that you might’ve missed some alternative options at certain points in the story. One being that you don’t have to fight the magisters guarding Meistr Siva, you can bypass them via persuasion checks.

[@justingreen3527]

Loved the video i finished the game but missed alot lol

[@calvinsui2906]

I can’t believe you only took 20 minutes to cover act1. it took me 20 hours to finish.

[@Rolatii]

I'm kinda disappointed that there isn't a bunch of "Lucian did nothing wrong" comments

[@Tommysilvea]

Lucian did nothing wrong

[@JustSomeDude42]

Lucian did everything wrong.

[@Tommysilvea]

@@JustSomeDude42 he did nothing wrong

[@driftingdruid]

Lucian did lots wrong to do something right so that nothing would be wrong which means he intended nothing wrong when he was doing wrongs to right wrongs which make things right

[@ProwerAdmirer]

​@@driftingdruidYou're giving me a headache while making sense 100%

[@alecbetz1611]

I have loads of yard work to get done. Thank you for this ! Wrath of the righteous soon ?

[@MortismalGaming]

When they stop updating it

[@trishamiller7859]

This makes me want to play this again after i tire of bg3 in a few months

[@mr.bigstuff4755]

Thaks for this. Great video

[@TheMeldanor]

A friend and me are on a third play through. 1. one was normal with Fane and custom, Sebille and Red Prince as companions. We were confused by the story, but loved the game. Fane released the Ethernals. 2. one was a lone wolf duo playthrough, with the indent to make anything better. Lohse and Beast, no companions, tactician mode. I don't remember the ending, but the story was still confusing. Now we are at our third one: Murdor hobos. Don't ask, just kill. Only one source point, malady dies at Arx (whoops), no one is alive. Obvisiouly we are not interested in the story any more. We are more intrigued how far we can become just straight killing everyone. Targuin, Gareth , Jahan and many many many more - all dead a few moments after they meat us. We are now at Arx and we are planning to release the Deathfog. Your video helps a lot! We are still confused by the complex and ever changing story, but the video explain some details. We are planing a fourth play through. Highly modded. Damn, what a good game. Every playthrough there is something new.

[@doinkers81]

Underrated video

[@ALPakka-u4o]

Awesome content

[@jeremesmith9266]

One of the best RPGs ever, only nitpick is I wish the combat was faster paced; animations for casting take so long

[@blakeunderwood8364]

Currently trying to do all the side quests before I move on to act 3. Really enjoying this game so far 30 hours in and 34 percent of all the trophies

[@blakeunderwood8364]

@I'll taketh thy cheese by force ive hit a brick wall. Just attacking doesnt work and sometimes skills arnt learned by some of my characters or it says they know the spell already. Plus everythings level 15 and I'm only 13. Maybe if I can finish some more quests

[@KoMaHu3aM]

keeping those algorithms happy...

[@normal6969]

Watched it thru - I have a save before going off to the source-island. As seen the ending choices, I think my ideal ending would be: I am the nice undead chap Fane. He would let his fellow eternals back, and work on restoring them into voidless form. Sharing source seems a good idea too. He wouldn't let the King back, not only because leaders always responsible for everything, but he personally hates him for the actions against their family. Our late dead God - Lucian - would accompany him into the Void, of course, as we aren't cruel. As doG Almighty he would appoint his companions as lesser goDs to spheres of faith instead of races, the mad singer girl, the lone wolf, the dwarf, according to their life-philosophies. He'd resurrect his daughter, and if she behaves good, purges all source from the world for her on her 18000th birthday, if she still wants it. Let her decide maturely.

[@embodying8moth82]

A bit late but if you are playing a Undead character you can make a pact with the God King at the Academy and become sworn. Potentially making you a 5th in need of a Sworn breaker if Fane also becomes sworn

[@Lilybun]

I never agreed to Lucian's ploy to surrender my source as I though it was so foolishly naive that it was probably braccus' influence or something. Never knew it let you skip phase 1 lol. With how absolutely nuts you could be in that fight with apotheosis and skin graft it wasnt that much of a speed bump compared to unweakened doctor demon from earlier. As for the ending itself I felt that sealing away source was a whole another pandoras box and if it backfired the world would be completely defenseless against the void. Redistributing source or becoming the new divine seemed like the good endings to me but for a continued narrative Lucians plan has more potential and less loose ends so cant blame them for making that one canon.

[@SuperKratosgamer]

1:17:07 not only red dragons, the ice dragon too it is a lizard.

[@FreedomLovingFox]

Giving everyone the ‘blessing’ of source is in my opinion the best choice to make for the future of Rivellon. There will always be power struggles within a world of mortals. There will always be bloodshed, strife, sickness, hunger, and turmoil within a world of mortals. However, I think it is highly likely that an abundance of source will help Rivellon overcome some of the suffering that would be guaranteed without it, such as hunger and disease. In addition to the fallibility of the mortal existence, I believe that bestowing the denizens of Rivellon with source will give them the ability to repel the void and its servants, if such a threat were to ever reappear. I can’t say that the world would be at total peace, but I have to believe that if push came to shove, the source infused mortal races of Rivellon would put their differences aside, band together, and use their combined source powers to repel any foreign magical threats. Peace is possible in world filled with source!! In my heart I believe that :) Plus, let’s face it, the world would be so boring without source ;P

[@54032Zepol]

Well here goes my next three hours

[@brichess8227]

if you have the idol of rebirth you can actually take the ferry to bloodmoon island, you and your party will die but then you will immediately revive

[@m3divh]

Just one thing, If you choose to support the Sallow Man as any character, and you kill alexander and let the sallowman live, you can join the Voidwoken as any character.

[@embodying8moth82]

I accidentally ate the head of Alexander. But I am pretty sure if you are a undead and join the Covenant the void will still win of you prevail (I play with my sibling)

[@Atomic_Moose_Of_Cheese]

Great video!

[@talisektsrand6631]

Thanks for doing this, I liked the game but hated the system of making builds/chars/skillbooks but wanted to know how it all ends

[@alexblades5218]

Telekinesis is great for winning the ship fight while protecting Malady- make a nice heavy chest by filling an invincible chest from the Fort Joy and filling it with crates, sacks, etc. You'll one shot every enemy- its so satisfying

[@egontiedeman761]

great video

[@GenericYTFan]

2:23:52 i snuck up and got the sword, went back and freed Windigo, then fought

[@insaneyoohoo]

Possible lore question, but are ‘true’ wizards like Zandalor born, or can someone train to become a wizard that powerful and long lived?

[@MortismalGaming]

Seems to be a training thing, the details are pretty few are far between

[@normal6969]

At 2:04:00 can you drain source from the tentacles to insta-kill them?

[@danielecatania9631]

I must say I've tried to play this game and never got into it. In fact I never got past the introduction every time. Now I know the story and it seems an hassle I will never put myself into. Thanks

[@Artemisthemp]

A shame their is no Beast, Fane or Ifan Ben-Mezd ending tiles

[@lexkoal8657]

Watched just the beginning for now but certainly plan to watch the whole thing. Story for me was hard to track. Doesn't help that it took me 3 years to finish the game

[@MWMTEE]

The deathroom was killing me ok my fourth try i just ran to barrier and shimmyd a teleport pyramid through it and got through havent seen that online when i was looking

[@jackinthebox1993]

I honestly did not know about the whole Gydian summoning the viodwoken. Keeping that idiot alive was nearly impossible on my play through. Some sourcerer's just use their powers dumbly and I didn't realize we could save his ass and us the terrible of fighting all those blobs

[@ForeverTraitor]

Gwydian died in my playthrough but Hannag still helped me? Not sure if that's a bug for me or an error on your part. I wouldn't recommend learning from Hannag though because it removed my Pet Pal ability which really annoyed me.

[@MortismalGaming]

Might have a been a change with definitive edition actually, but yeah she's the worst one to help anyway

[@jungshin87]

The first gwydian fight took me over an hour. Killed him out of spite after working so hard to save him fucck that guy

[@TheJayman760]

LOL I was able to beat Dallis by climbing the wall to the right of the fort entrance, avoiding her and leveling up. Then I set up barricades of barrels and attacked Dallis from above. She teleported up but I swarmed her and took her out. Unfortunately her hammer was a major disappointment.

[@Demitrios90]

I know this video is rather old at this point but you mention some links to videos in the description but there arent any linked there.

[@TheDragonshadow1231]

Her character was ruined Windego >.

[@jeremiasz1165]

What happen if you dont sent war owl to Arx, in theory due to this paladins will kill all magisters? (is there way to not inform paladins about magister-black ring "things" in black pits)
