    It’s fine. They’ll still do amazing rpg work without Hasbro, WotC or whomever fucking up their business.

      I hope they take the money and what they learned from Baldur’s Gate 3 and continue with Divinity. The two Divinity CRPGS were completely broken but that’s what made them fun. I find DnD rules very boring, ultimately constricting instead of freeing. But you can clearly see how much Larian improved from Divinity OS 1, then OS2, then Baldur’s Gate 3. Every time it was in another league entirely. BG3 has everything for a great game, except the ruleset. But that’s just my opinion.

        The combat is really dragged down by DnD rules, they just don’t work for a modern videogame. What use is a healer or spellcaster if they have a limited amount of uses and a ridiculously high miss rate that bogs down fights. Couple that with constantly needing to roll for checks that you basically could just reload instead of failing, every encounter taking 2/3 of your HP and constantly needing to long rest and it quickly becomes really annoying.

        I do love the RPG aspect of the game though, the storytelling is great and the world is so interesting, all things that honestly make the more annoying parts of the game more bearable.

        I also do wish they gave us a mount or sprint or something, getting around wasn’t too bad cause of the fast travel but only ever being allowed to walk or jog doesn’t feel good with a big ass map.

        Honestly I could talk about this all day lmao it’s the tism.
