Hardly a masterpiece.

UnderRail sucks, everyone likes to pretend that its a le build autism game but it has like 3 builds with a few flavors.
I was very disappointed by it tbqh

It's the white man's game.

faggy game systems. And crafting is still beyond useless. More than half of the talents are completely dogshit, etc.

It's too short and the fact that you still have Arx quests makes it blatantly obvious that the battle for divinity is a red herring, but it's not unbalanced.

>>715378786
>Issue
Act 3 is easy as fuck because that's when the game starts breaking apart hard.
Act 1 is the only time the game is actually difficult and you control weak characters, but the game gives you lots of different ways to solve quests, which leads to a lot of fun creativity and great quest design.
By act 3 you're basically just brute forcing yourself through quests with only 1 possible solution with overpowered characters. Hence why it's bad.

Let him have this one. This is how midwits cope that they're not borderline retarded. They complete one super streamlined RPG and think they are on the next level of consciousness.

>>715377313 (OP)
DOS3 fucking when
They have infinite money from BG3, right?

>>715379151
>I am white and I prefer Pillars
pollacks are not white

>>715377313 (OP)
schizo thread. DOS1 had better combat and far better music. Go to DOS2 steam forums and you'll see 90% of complaints are about the about the armor system. It's trash, and only retards like OP will use mental gymnastics and cope about how its actually good.4N84S

>>715377313 (OP)
I honestly cannot fathom why is this fellated so much. It's super average If you played older crpgs.
It was ok, the writing was pretty meh, 90% of the cast annoying and the overall system felt more satisfying in the first game.

>>715380000
Yes, each act is meant to have distinct difficulty curve and playstyle and favor different team comps. Different people struggle with different acts, that's part of the fun/challenge. Also Act 4 is definitely the most insane with skin graft/tea leaves but it also has the most insane enemies/bosses to compensate. Breaking the game and becoming powerful is a huge part of the appeal

>>715377313 (OP)
DO I NEED TO PLAY THE FIRST
HUH
ANSWER ME

https://arch.b4k.dev/v/search/image/QDkaDBOup1bEjW2-z5FPmA/
Is this the new "schizo spams /v/ about a specific game that filtered them, to get /v/ to hate it" target?

>>715379708
Your stupidity does not change how many weapons there are in the game.

>>715381094
>most insane enemies/bosses to compensate
w-what? I didn't play the hardest difficulty but the only times I ate shit was at the fireslime spam battle and the void dragon thing at the end

>>715381156
apparently, i've seen this thread like every day for the past week

>>715381372
NTA but i remember having trouble with a couple fights along the campaign.
However on the last act it was close to filtering me twice.
Playing on the hardest difficulty both the Doctor and the last fight (which is extended as fuck) were really close to make me rage quit.
Porbably my builds sucked tho

>>715381115
nope
in fact i would say you should play the first one after this one (assuming you like it)

>>715380901
The combat is more strategic than pretty much any old crpg. For that reason alone you should see why people like it so much

>>715381372
>I didn't play the hardest difficulty b
Then why the fuck are you speaking on the difficulty you retarded shitter?

>>715381115
no

>>715381372
>I didn't play on hard so why didn't I find it hard?

>>715381156
And here I thought only Owltards like to spam threads like this

It takes all my force of will not to insta murder the fucking retarded Sebille in Fort Joy
Fucking Larianniggers thinking its a cool way to introduce the character by getting the upper hand over me and threatening to kill me
I have played the game a handful of times and only spared her once just to see her quest.

>>715381983
She voiced 2 of my elffus already so she got a pass

why do you make this thread every day

>>715381983
I felt the same way, I also hated red prince for ordering me around
Where's my option to wallop him and make him my servant

>>715381372
Act 3 has quite a few tough fights but they're all optional. It's a short, very open ended act mostly about exploration/puzzles. Really great change of pace imo

>>715381983
You're just a sensitive pussy. If you've never had the amazing sex that comes with a woman that has previously tried to kill you you just wouldn't get it

>>715377313 (OP)
It's shit. Shit combat. Shit story. Shit characters. Refer to my first sentence.

>>715382247
it's at the end

Excuse the shitty screenshot from a random youtube video.
The first game had this zone where you go to an elemental plane and have to free some elemental lords to stop a forever winter.
These elemental lords are named in Euskara; the Basque country language. I loved that detail. Larian being European probably had somebody from here working and they just went with those names.
You can see them listed in the video
>Sua (the)Fire
>Lurrean (in the)Earth
>Tximista (the)Lightning

I used to have a composite screenshot with the npcs but that got lost with the time.
Thanks for reading my blog.

>>715379214
Literally not a single one of these points is true. Not even worth arguing Because you're a retarded schizo that's been btfo dozens of times by thos point

>>715379214
Literally none of these are correct in the slightest.

>>no effort put into the main character or character progression
You create a custom character, or you can choose a unique origin character, all of which have a ton of effort, backstory, unique abilities, unique dialogue, and their own quests.

>>classless ivory tower magic system even for the fighters
It's flexible, but it's a big risk/reward to determine how much you want to toe into other classes for certain abilities. More specialized/stronger abilties require more investment.

>>no actual attributes just pump damage because it's a shitty alpha strike game
There are attributes.... and buffs, movement spells, utility spells, and CC are all very important too.

You literally just bitched about how the game lets you make hybrid/multi-class in the previous point, then the very next point say 'don't actually do that, just min-max damage'... are you retarded? Even honour noLW runs don't just rush pure damage.

>>horrible racial and skills
Most of the bonuses aren't huge, but they definitely make a difference and affect playstyle, especially elves and undead. Not to mention special skills that are massively strong.

>>game gives you "classes" in a classless game that are immediately irrelevant outside the tutorial
Again, allowing hybrid/multi-classing doesn't mean classes are irrelevant. It's a careful balance between the utility of different branches while still focusing on your strengths and getting enough damage output

>>715378228
I'll finish that campaign mod set in Ancient Empire someday, I swear

>>715377495
Just like every larian game, acts 1 and 2 are good and then the quality falls off a cliff. The games are still very good overall even considering that

>>715377313 (OP)
It was really good, I respect it a thousand times over BG3, since it is their own world and they decide the rules and all.
BG3 on the other hand, despite being a fine game gameplay wise, is a terrible mess when it comes to characters (specially the old characters of the franchise). It also doesn't feel like a game of the Baldur's Gate franchise at all.
>>715378228
Yeah, that was criminal of their part. Would've been the obvious choice for love interest

>>715386856
It's strange, isn't it? Why does it keep happening?

i started playing this a few days ago and holy hell i didn't realize it was possible for pickpocketing to be more busted than BG3 but this game does it, why does this game even have gold

>>715388252
OS2 must be the only Divinity you've ever played, they're butchering the established lore and characters in literally every single game (see Lucian, Dragon Knights, Source), and each one has a very different feel, the franchise itself has barely any identity
still, OS2 and D2 are among my favorite vidyas ever

>>715388252
I thought BG3 characters were way more fleshed and better than DOS2
>It also doesn't feel like a game of the Baldur's Gate franchise at all.
This is probably the reason it was good, both Divinity Original Sin games and BG3 are miles ahead of any Bioware Crpg when it comes to gameplay, level design, encounter design, rpg mechanics and music.
I guess Bioware still leads with characters, lol.

>>715390032
Incase you decide not to pickpocket
I didn't because I didn't want to invest in thievery for RP reasons.

>>715377313 (OP)
It suffers the same problem that all Larian games have: a mediocre story. It's basically Shadowbringers done wrong. Or, if you'd like, you can think of Shadowbringers as DOS2 done right.

>>715390390
Larian is in a league of their own when it comes to RPGs. They just run circles around modern devs
