I just noticed it, didn't hear anything about the game.. So I bought it.. What the heck right..?

I kinda think that was a bad idea.. don't get me wrong I like my RPG's thou (Elder Scrolls(10), WoW(9.5), Dragon Age(8.6), Two Worlds(6.4 same thing as Divinity II), DMMM(6.7), Mass Effect(10), Sacred 2(8.8), Fallout 3(7.8)...(a score 1-10) Ect)

It's just that I think they released this game too soon.. I has a lot of tech issues(graphics, saving/loading, Memory, DirectX.) and in my opinion it's hard.

The reason I say it's hard it I let a few of my friends play it and they would play if for about an hour and give it back.. Sayin they don't like the game (they are more of an point and shoot) but still, I have trouble..

This game has great potential....

You can change the difficulty setting. Even on level 2 (normal difficulty) before I distributed any stat points, I didn't have any problems clearing the initial area around the village (up to where you start hitting the level 4 bosses).

Did you find the skill book in the training area in Farglow? I used it to learn Lockpick; that and the key you can also find there give access to a couple chests, which may contain useful items (especially if you save before opening them or running the crosshairs over them, so you can reload a couple times, if needed).

The save/load problem doesn't bother me, as I tend to make unique saves anyway (of course I'll still get the fix for it when MS finishes its process and releases the patch). The 20 save limit on the Xbox is a little annoying, but consoles have always been like that.


Did you see the Character Optimization topic? Also:

Character Too Weak

My Caracter is extremely week and I dont know why

I just have one piece of advice for you. You really should have did some research on this game before wasting your money. lol. Now if you are one of the fanboys for the series (or cult followers, whatever you want to call them) then you'll love it apparently.

Yes, because those are the only options; if you don't think the game is a waste of money, you must be a fanboy.

Have you considered the possibility that a reasonable person could have an opinion that is different than yours?

Our presence has been compromised. Quick Fanboys, spread out!

Seriously, as Raze stated, because you don't like the game, no one else except for the Larian Fanboys can?
It would be quite a boring world if everyone shared the same opinion.

In fact I uninstalleed it even - but that was rather because the system specs were too embarassing for my system ...

No, there are some far better "authorities" - on RPGWatch, for example ... Some who have begun with Wizardry 1, for example ... wink
(Not me, by the way ...)

Ok I must point out some issues with this post/thread.

First, there is an entire section of the forum devoted to Divinity II, this should have been posted there, not in off topic.

Second, considering WoW an RPG is folly, FOLLY I TELL YOU!
