It is Divinity, they fixed that particular issue in Baldurs Gate 3 because too many people were joking about it. Now the chests change to empty when you loot them.
Yeah, I bought it on a steam sale and it sits in my library waiting to be played. I’d need to replay BG1 though first because I’m a sucker that wants to import my save into BG2 for reasons ;)
If it helps, there’s very little that carries over between the two games. Without any spoilers, you lose your gear at the start of the BG2, most of which doesn’t carry over anyway. You will start with the level you finished BG1 with, but BG2 boosts brand new characters to a certain level anyway. And I don’t think the games track decisions made throughout like modern RPGs do.
That said, I played it years before Beamdog released that interlude DLC, so maybe things have changed in their Enhanced releases of the games.
Really? I had a blast playing it with my friends. Though we found you could easily break the game with the right builds and become god-like rather quickly
Yeah, ever since I discovered you could stack chests within chests to get infinite weight and toss it around at enemies with telekinesis the game became too easy. I know I could just not do that but I lack the self control.
Bonus: your primary weapon doubles as infinite portable storage and more loot = more damage. Most busted strat ever.
The current strat for ANY% life :tm: is to restart repeatedly until you get good RNG. The way to tell you have a good start is your inheritance value will be over a million. The top run had theirs in the billions but the odds of getting a run like that are 1/8,000,000,000 or so. Currently there is no known strategy for RNG manipulation. The devs were really crafty and embeded randomness into the engine itself
Containers, when thrown using telekinesis, do damage that scales with their weight. By nesting multiple heavy containers inside the top container, you can do hellish amounts of damage pretty quickly. For extra ease, use the golden chest that appears very early in the game, since it’s indestructible. It breaks virtually every fight in the game. Also, you have to lug a chest that weighs as much as a neutron star around with you.
Oh, nice! I’m currently playing BG3 and very much like the turn based nature. I’m also an old school D&D player, so that’s probably partly why. I’ve contemplated getting into the Larian back catalogue as a result of my enjoyment of BG3, but there are only so many hours in the day haha.
If you can make it past fort joy (beginning area) you’ll enjoy the game. Be ready for inventory management simulator™ though. I think I did put in around 60 hours starting over again and again in the first act with different builds (just like bg3)
Play both Original Sin 1 and 2. Both are great games!
The wife and I played it together and she loved it since it has a great couch co-op mode. She doesn’t really play games and doesn’t like fast paced games, so this was perfect for her.
What game?
Divinity Original Sin 2 I think, or Baulders Gate 3

Not the image, but the same event also occurs in DragonAge Origins
Also the Fable game where you get to be a king.
You mean Fable III?
You can’t be a king in Fable and purchasing the castle in Fable II is post-credit content.
Yeah that one of course.
I like how if you increase the coffer enough you get the sword at the top of the pile.
I never got to play it all the way through.
Baldurs Gate 2 I thinkNope, divinity original sin 2
Ah fuck. I always manage to get the two confused.
Close enough, its still a Larian Studios game.
I would pay good money to see them put The Red Prince and Astarion in the same room to see what happens.
BG1 and 2 were made by Bioware back when they still made good RPGs.
Oooh. I played BG1, but never 2. Heard it was good but just never had the time. :)
BG2 is like 20 years old. BG3 is nothing like the previous titles.

It’s Divinity: Original Sin 2. That’s The Red Prince on the left. It’s a highly frustrating game with annoying mechanics and turn-based combat.

Are we still talking about billionaires?

I wanna know these broken builds.
There’s always barrelmancy!

It feels like a precursor to BG3 because it is. Those menus though, my face still burns. Though I did have fun.

Why did you start all over again in bg3 when you can just change your build completely in camp?
I didn’t like the way my character looked and I wanted to do things differently than I did.
Play both Original Sin 1 and 2. Both are great games!

The combats really cool tho
If you don’t misclick. Also, FIRE EVERYWHERE!!
