Divinity board game should learn from Descent (1st & 2nd Edition) Seth234 Yesterday at 12:11 PM
Hey everyone,

Long-time DOS2 fan here. I recently came across Divinity: Original Sin – The Board Game and gave the previews an honest look, but something kept bothering me: it doesn't really capture what made DOS2 special on the tabletop. The thing I miss most is the map and encounter design — the way every fight in DOS2 is a little puzzle of terrain, elevation, and elemental interactions.

So if Larian (or whoever ends up making the next Divinity board game) is listening, I'd like to make a case for looking at two games as a reference:

- Descent: Journeys in the Dark (1st Edition, 2005)
https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/17226/descent-journeys-in-the-dark
- Descent: Journeys in the Dark (2nd Edition, 2012)
https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/104162/descent-journeys-in-the-dark-second-edition

(We can quietly pretend the third edition never happened.)

What made these games legendary:

- Opening chests for unique loot that actually felt like a discovery
- Tactical positioning to control enemies and protect teammates
- Action economy and turn-based decisions that mattered
- Diverse class and weapon combinations
- Custom character creation (especially in 1st Edition)

This is the kind of design space DOS2 lives in. Surfaces, high ground, line of sight, choosing who to lock down first — Descent already proved 20 years ago that this can work on a table.

But the real reason I'm posting: the Overlord system.

You might assume Descent is just another co-op dungeon crawler. It isn't. Descent has an Overlord player — a real human sitting across the table, controlling the monsters, springing traps, and playing cards to mess with the heroes' plans.

Heroes get cooperative party play, long-term character progression, and the satisfaction of pulling off a combo. The Overlord gets resource management, long-term scheming across a campaign, and the power to shape the battlefield turn by turn.

If the heroes use the terrain, the Overlord creates it. That asymmetry is exactly the kind of dynamic DOS2 hints at with its scripted encounters — except now it's a real person on the other side of the table reading your moves.

Why this matters for a Divinity board game: DOS2's signature isn't just "RPG with choices." It's tactical map design where the environment is a weapon, deep build customization, strategic readable combat, and asymmetry between sides — one party of misfits against a world that's actively hostile.

A pure co-op dungeon crawler can't reach that ceiling. A Descent-style asymmetric design absolutely can. If a future Divinity board game took that direction, I'd be first in line.

Curious if anyone else here has played the Descent games and feels the same way. And if any Larian folks see this — please consider it for the next swing at a tabletop Divinity. There's a real classic waiting in that direction.

Re: Chances of ever getting mouse support on PS5 Xyhis Yesterday at 03:52 AM
It takes some time getting used to, but I would never be able to play BG3 with a mouse and keyboard-- the free movement, camera, ability to customize dials however I want to prioritize/categorize skills, and you can generally mimic a "mouse" experience by clicking in the joystick and moving your cursor around.

Yes, it takes time. But I would keep at it and also make it work for you.

HOW TO GET THE BEST BITCOIN RECOVERY HACKER HERE: REVENANT CYBER HACKER

I never imagined that one bad decision could shatter my life the way it did. Like many people, I was drawn into cryptocurrency by stories of financial freedom and security for my family. When an online “recovery scheme” promised to help me retrieve funds I had previously lost, I was desperate and hopeful. Instead, I walked straight into another trap. Within weeks, $172,000, my life savings, was gone. The realization was devastating. I couldn’t sleep. I avoided my family because I didn’t know how to explain that everything I had worked for over the years had vanished in silence, stolen by faceless scammers hiding behind fake platforms and convincing words. Every unanswered email and every ignored message felt like another punch to the chest. I truly believed my future was over. I reported the incident to different platforms and authorities, but the responses were cold and discouraging. I was told crypto losses were “almost impossible” to recover. That sentence echoed in my mind daily. I felt ashamed, broken, and completely alone. That was when I came across REVENANT CYBER HACKER. At first, I was skeptical. After being scammed once, trusting anyone again felt impossible. But from the very first consultation, something was different. They listened, really listened to my story without judgment. They explained the process clearly, showed verifiable evidence of past recoveries, and never made unrealistic promises. REVENANT CYBER HACKER treated my case with urgency and professionalism. Their team traced blockchain transactions, identified wallet movements, and coordinated the recovery process step by step, keeping me informed throughout. For the first time in months, I felt a sense of hope. When I received confirmation that my $172,000 had been successfully recovered, I broke down in tears. It wasn’t just about the money; it was about getting my life back. REVENANT CYBER HACKER restored more than my funds; they restored my dignity, my peace of mind, and my belief that justice is still possible in the digital world. Today, I share my story so others don’t lose hope. If you feel trapped, ashamed, or helpless after a crypto scam, know this: recovery is possible. REVENANT CYBER HACKER gave me a second chance when I needed it most.

Re: BG3 Fan Fiction SPOILERS and POTENTIAL SPOILERS GM4Him 10/04/26 02:15 PM
Update: Part 3, Chapter 23 is now published. Demogorgon has arrived in his ship of chaos, the Pandemonium. Will he get his revenge, or will the adventurers escape the Iron Wastes.

BG3.5 - Hellraisers (Fanfiction)
Baldur's Gate 3.5: Hellraisers - an original fanfic story that is a sequel to Baldur's Gate 3 Fanfic: The Afflicted. It picks up immediately after the events of Baldur's Gate 3 as characters from the previous fanfic - Fiovay, Kai, Aelun, Vlyn, and the other members of their party - travel to Avernus. Their quest is to save Karlach but also to hopefully find and rescue Darson, Aelun's father, from the clutches of Demogorgon.

Re: When a compatriot, or you, for that matter, dies, why do you resurrect the tadpole? Tav'ith'sava 10/04/26 11:38 AM
The wording used in pre-3e is that priests/clerics, druids, rangers, paladins and druids "acquire their spells through prayer". That means they pray during rests and can then generally access spells according to their deity's major or minor spheres of influence. The cleric would then either get the wish list, or find deviations, maybe because without the players' knowledge they're about to face an obstacle where a certain obscure spell would be handy, or because the cleric misbehaved and gets a first warning through a selection of useless spells. Clerics also use spell components, like words, gestures and consumables, to cast their spells. Clerics, druids, rangers, paladins and druids without obvious deities, usually receive their spells through proxies, powerful fiends or other mighty outer planar creatures with access to spell spheres, although sometimes without even the casters' knowledge. An exception would be shamans (5e: Warlocks) who in a way don't use their own magical power, but use the magical energies of spiritual entities. But, even they would do the chanting and praying mostly off-play and, unless they perform a ritual to work major mojo usually beyond their level, use spellcasting to manifest the power.

Re: Quest ('Investigate Kagha') incompletable due to a bug Xyhis 09/04/26 05:44 PM
Unsure if you've ever progressed passed this point, but after resolving the goblin camp:
If you have the letter from the swamp, you have the opportunity to give it to Halsin, if you choose to save him and the grove. The option is there when you speak with him as he's confronting Kagha following the battle/clearing goblin camp.

... I've never had this happen, but that interaction might resolve the investigation quest since you're relaying the information?

What difficulty level for a new player? Roymar 08/04/26 07:39 PM
Hey. I guess this is my first post, so nice to meet you. I've never played this game before. I generally like a real challenge in games, but all I can find is how especially punishing hard mode is in this one. Is hard mode doable for a first playthrough , or does it rely on previous game knowledge and would prove too frustrating? Thank you.

Re: Help me choose Lotus Noctus 08/04/26 07:21 PM
You've actually already answered your own question. Modding is THE reason why I never recommend anything other than the PC Steam version of BG3. Especially for the really big future mods such as:



Simply bcs there are always major delays, as was the case with Macintosh, or because, as mentioned in related Q&As, it never gets released for consoles.

Re: What BG3 missed but what would have made it 5 times better game Shadowbart 07/04/26 04:26 PM
The battle with Kethric is one such battle.

The first time I fought him downstairs...
I used everything I had. Surprise! He was just the warm up! Exactly as designed, well done!

There I stood, casters on empty, me, a fighter with that purple-red halberd, and Whiffmistress Lae'zel.

No knowledge of any of this:
1. Use Doomhammer, or at least those arrows that do the same thing.
2. No knowleldge the little bulges in the circle were outside his no-heal aura radius.
3. Potions of hill giant strength

Soon even severe savescumming could not do the trick. Even if he missed he still did some damage and I was out of heal potions, not farming those, either, no haste scroll, nothing.

The solution was to drop the difficulty down mid-fight, which worked, but golly, bards won't be singing about my effort any time soon!

Re: Feature Suggestion: Turn Your Playthrough into a Readable ‘Novel’ Fropsy 07/04/26 10:00 AM
I’m actually starting to think in a slightly different direction. Instead of a fully polished, novel-like narrative, it might work better as something like an interactive journal or narrative log.
In this case, it wouldn’t try to rewrite everything into a seamless story, but rather record the experience in a structured way — including a narrator-style summary of events, along with key dialogues and interactions. Essentially, it would capture what happens to the character as the story unfolds, without necessarily turning it into a traditional novel.
This approach might make it easier to preserve the full freedom of the game while still keeping the information organized and readable.

For example, it could follow a structured format based on key milestones that most players go through. I’d like to illustrate this idea using Baldur’s Gate 3 as an example:

ACT I

DAY 1

[Linked Image from bg3.wiki]
narrator-style description text text text text text
dialogs
dialogs
narrator-style description
dialogs

DAY 2

narrator-style description text text text text text
dialogs
....

DAY X

Then, when a major event happens (like reaching the druid grove), it could again introduce a new section with a small image, a summary from the narrator, and the relevant conversations.




Ideally, it could also be searchable, allowing you to quickly find specific moments, names, including your own dialogue choices and responses — the exact decisions you made during the playthrough.

Another feature, in addition to simply recording what happens to the player, would be the ability to write your own entries in this log. For example, adding personal thoughts or reflections — essentially giving the player the ability to edit or contribute to the journal.
This could work in two ways:
First, the player could add notes directly within the main narrative log itself — alongside the narrator-style text and recorded dialogues — allowing them to annotate specific moments, decisions, or conversations with their own thoughts.

Second, there could be a separate tab that acts as a blank page for free-form writing. In this space, the player could add notes at any time during gameplay — quick remarks, ideas, or reflections. Additionally, this could also be integrated into the game world, for example while resting at camp: approaching the campfire could open the journal, creating a more immersive feeling of actually sitting down and writing in a personal diary.

This way, the journal wouldn’t just document the story, but also give players a meaningful tool to record their own thoughts and experiences throughout the playthrough.

Re: What a lying, lying game! ldo58 06/04/26 12:06 AM
It's not just that. I always thought that leveling up from 3 to 4 was long. Thought that it might be a relic from the early access times when Lvl 4 was the max. So now I 'm doing a Shadowheart origin run, and I am at 79 points from lvl 4. In the blighted village only the ogres remain and the 5 goblins guarding on the roof. I'm certainly not going to attack the ogres at lvl 3. So I attacked and exterminated the 5 roof goblins and got exactly 0 xp for this.
