Hi.

I'm a huge fan of your divinity games, finishing them many times, and i want to give you a feedback on the second opus.

I'm pretty confused about the completion ability of blood island.
In fact, a whole part of the vault quest is locked to a scholar tag, the unique way to open the three statues.
It's pretty frustrating to see a whole part and interresting quest locked to parties that not include this tag (that often happens with lonewolf combination).
Implementing a side way to open them shall be a good and less frustrating value. Some ideas : a ghost who learn songs with persuasion check, Tarquin translating book for you or a flesh bite of an old scholar to just learn songs by memory. Even let Lohse's demon translate it for her ! (with 4 of 5 origin character able to open vaults, you take a security, Even for lonewolf teams, to allow a full quest completion)

In fact, It's the only tag that limitate our quests...

Thanks for reading, and sorry for my grammar, english is not my main language

Yeah, it's pretty crappy to have most of the tags only good for mere flavour text and responses, but to lock quests behind one of them (and one of them alone).

It's probably the result of another instance of Larian having so many things they want to cram into a game that they never have the time and resources to fully develop them to live up to the potential.

And i just saw (in this playthrough) that jahan too possess this book, and we got his notes, and he's also unable to decypher the text for us... pretty astonishing !
We shall have an ally, specialized in demon hunting, with all the good materials to do so, and no clue to use those, even with his help...
