If I'm enjoying Wasteland 3, is Divinity Original Sin 2 worth getting? I guess I don't ever remember this coming out, but $17.99 seems like a good price.

I did not really enjoy it, the writing is limp, the itemization is just out right bad. If you can get over its problems the combat is quite good, and it is multi player.

They are doing this because maybe if people pay enough attention that they're doing BG3, people will buy Divinity, because Larian needs money I say this, but right now im still stuck at Fort Joy, and i have no idea what to do next

Div 2 OS is a TON of fun in multiplayer tearing rear end through the game and ignoring the story, but playing it single player would probably be a drat slog. Also I don't really get Larian's fetish for animal abuse and it kinda bums me out how horrible things are constantly happening to every dog or cat you come across but I'm also a big wuss so ymmv.

Jurassic Park Evolution: 2.8 hours into it and I'm really enjoying it? It's not the deepest theme park sim ever but it's very pretty, I enjoy setting things up and watching money roll in, the dinosaurs are great, and I like the campaign structure of "you must do 3 separate missions per island and unlock the rest of the islands as you go" it feels good. That said I think I'm the only person on earth who doesn't like Jurassic Park the movie series so the movie nods and tie-ins do nothing for me. Oh well, the dinosaurs are cool (if featherless)

Divinity 2 is brilliant, clever, and fun, and yes I'm playing in single player. You really have to work out every angle on a situation and save often and utilize all your resources, it took me 30+ hours to get out of Fort Joy. Don't fight stuff above your level, and don't feel too bad if stuff kicks your rear end, even watching the devs demo Baldur's Gate 3 I've seen them get their asses kicked because something unexpected happens.

Lol there's people in the reviews who are thumbs down on it because the voice acting doesn't change with the handler DLC and honestly that sounds like a feature to me.

So far I'm not burned out yet on DA:I, although I came close to raging a few times in the Forbidden Oasis. loving shards on ledges that I don't know how to reach. Also despite everyone's warnings I haven't even done the Val Royeaux thing yet, lol. It's stronger than myself, I must do side quests e: I have 69 Power

Gort posted:What are people's thoughts on Greedfall? Steam says it's like Witcher 3 and Pillars of Eternity 2, which is a pretty good recommendation. I played through it a couple weeks ago and liked it quite a lot. It is far more similar to Dragon Age Inquisition than either of those comparisons. If you liked that then you should like this, if not then it also has some of the same weaknesses. The gameplay is a little bit janky but is much better than previous Spiders games. There's a skill buy system to advance in your choice of swords, blunt weapons, magic, or tech (rifles and bombs). Tech is very strong but has limited ammo, so it's more of a backup to supplement your main attacks, or something where you make sure you craft enough bullets/bombs before a tough fight. The combat is real time action that can be paused to queue up the next action, and you use a sidestep or timed parry to avoid attacks (can also skill into a roll or magic dash). There's nothing like a shield block where you could hold a defense up indefinitely; defenses have to be timed. On higher game difficulties this can make group combats rather difficult when multiple enemies attack you at the same time, so you'll need to use magic or tech for crowd control. Individual enemies generally go down pretty quickly, but there are various miniboss fights that can take a while (and on the highest difficulty they can one-shot you if you do get hit at all). You travel around with a handful of recruitable companions, all of them have their own questlines and will chime in pretty consistently on other situations if you bring them along. For example an inquisitor gives you a hard time in the early game and if you know the in-game theology well enough you can bluff your way past him, but if you have your native shaman companion with you they'll get into a heated argument and he won't believe you. The degree to which some of the quests respond to who you have along and what other quests you've done before is actually pretty impressive. The worldbuilding is solid though you will not be able to talk to most NPCs just to chat; anyone that you can talk to will be part of a quest. One thing that player do complain about is that you pretty much have to check off all the sidequests, you can't just leave them undone because you don't like the questgiver. Since I tend to play RPGs as a completionist this didn't bother me, but I can see why it would be annoying.

I'm seeing some promising early reviews and comments about As Far As The Eye. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1119700/As_Far_As_The_Eye/ Anyone tried it out by chance? Looks like an interesting mix of elements. It's strategy but has some base building, 4X, and other Rogue type stuff going on evidently. There's also no combat, which I find more and more appealing these days.

Well i finished Tyranny under the easiest difficulty. After playing many Obsidian Entertainment games throughout the years, I think i've come to a conclusion. They are very excellent at writing and world building, but they are just not very good at endings. KOTOR 2, NWN 2, New Vegas, Alpha Protocol, Pillars of Eternity, Tyranny, Outer Worlds. Every one of these games has something in the game's writing that hooks me, or gives me a reason to invest my time into these games. PoE and NWN 2 I have not finished, but I have completed the others and each in some form or another have a super rushed ending, or through choices can be engineered to end very quickly, like it did for me with Tyranny. I went from Act 2 to Act 3 to the end in about an hour, because i contributed 20 hours into Act 1. It's kind of like the Bioware bit, except Obsidian doesn't go all in on the premise of "YOUR CHOICES MATTER" and more that devote most resources into making sure that every action you do take is acknowledged by the game, especially when you replay and decide to tackle it another order.

I really liked tyranny but yeah that ending was basically "aaaaand wait for tyranny 2!" Which I assume we will never get.

I've only experienced D:OS2 single player and enjoyed it a lot that way. Some of the dungeon crawls are so long (and my friends are frankly, such scrubs) that I couldn't really envision committing to the co-op mode. The main story is whatever, you're magic and magic is outlawed who cares, it's really about the wacky and highly memorable interactions you encounter out there in the game world. I like that Larian plays kind of fast and loose with their own lore and never takes themselves too seriously. In fact I'm appreciating their writing more by the minute experiencing the (deep sigh) humor in Wastelands 3.

I've been playing DSO2 in couch coop for like the last year with my brother and it's been great. There was initially a lot of respecs before we figured out a decent team, and like half an hour of every play session was trying to figure out where we were going and what quests we could attempt, but we're now at the final boss and have had one run at it (it went badly).

Way too many in MH:W The only important one is Iceborne, really. Everything else is either room decor, handler costumes, weapon charms and hairstyles. Plus the usual OST / deluxe upgrades. Oh, and the character tickets that let you redo your hunter and cat.

With the Gamepass price increasing next week, is the trick to getting a cheap long subscription with Xbox live still work? Considering taking advantage of this if it's still possible.
