Divinity: Original Sin

[Joseph Porta]

am i the only one still in the city stealing from the richs , trying to catch chickens , chatting with useless NPCs regarding their lives and shooting random fireballs around? 

Dammit. Just my thing, I need this game..

[Radament]

you can grab a key at https://www.g2a.com/divinity-original-sin-steam-cd-key-global.html (no referrals) at 21 Euro (remember to cancel the G2A Shield in the cart) and the site is legit 100%.
Or you can buy directly it from steam because this game really deserve the money.

I saw fucking Jews blindly buying Elders Scrolls Online Preorder (they'r not playing it anymore) but arguing to spend 20 bucks for a Masterpiece like Divinity:Original Sin  .

What did you expect, for people to actually have taste and discernment? What a ridiculous notion.

[Araxiel]

I am looking for someone to play co-op.

I like that you can stealth in this game even if you have 0 points in sneaking, when it makes sense that nobody would see you. In TES etc you'd get discovered through seven walls if you weren't a dedicated sneaker.

However, it's perhaps... a bit too easy to rob people blind. You just walk behind a shopkeeper and take everything.

Also, I don't think you need to put that many points into Intelligence if you're just looking for one or two self-buff spells?

[okiN]

Well, the less INT you have the less effective your spells will be, though I guess there are some spells that it doesn't affect. Not sure if the buffs are among those, though. I guess it could be okay if you stick to low-level spells, otherwise you need to sink a lot of ability points into preventing the AP costs from becoming prohibitive.

stealing is very easy yes , once you are in stealth mode you can steal everything.
 even with guards around , the % you get caught is minimal and when they cought you they simply tell you to stop so you can repeat the burglary.
The most funny fail i did was in the Wizard house , i tought to be alone and i went stealing in full retard mode but then i was interrupted by the wizard himself polimorphed into a cat. i got busted , yes.

I've had this happen lol...I was in there KNOWING FULL WELL Arhu lived there but I didn't realize he could polymorph and he was a cat hiding behind a pillar. He caught me for the 2nd time (accidentally stole something previous due to clicking on it unintentionally) and he blew me the fuck up with lightning.

So, i attempted to create a co-op game with someone...

Yeah, adding some magic works great. Don't even need to add points into intelligence, 1 Aerothurge lets me turn invisible and lets my warrior start the fights from up close.

Aerothurge in general seems like the go-to for warriors; you also get Lightning Storm which does AoE damage, stuns, and then you end up at the enemies. Kind of like Vanguard in ME.

Don't forget teleport! Best skill hands down!

I've put so many hours into this game and not even close to being done with it.

Definitely worth the purchase.



I'm trying to convince some more of my irl friends to buy it so I can try out the 4 player coop mod where I could be one of their henchmen. Should be lots of fun.

[Molly]

I gonna start over (haven't even solved the murder yet) and create a Battlemage/Wayfarer pair (maybe both Lone Wolf) and make up some nice combos with the help of the Wiki Spell list
I am sure there are some really cool combos possible...

Steam says I've played for ~6 hours and I've restarted about 4 times. I've finally settled on a generic, customized fighter and wizard party after bumbling around with three other groups attempting to learn what the game is going to expect of me.

All in all I missed the tutorial area, was blown up by landmines, murdered by skeletons (although the guards tried to help), learned that animals have pockets and that sometimes your characters don't know their own or their partners gender. After getting accustomed to all that I'm ready to properly start playing now.
