No armor rework = NTY. Not now and not OS3 either.

Can we not discuss the armour system in every topic, please? I understand some people have strong opinions about it but please be considerate.

New content. I guess they have reworked the third act (because why should do they rework the first two thirds?), so we may get more sidequests and more than big Main-Quest in Arx. That and some better explanations of the endings and the end of the characters would be enough for me.

I'm hoping they also tweak some of act 2 as well. Like Idk if it was bugs or just the way it was designed, but some of the companion quests conflicted with other companion ones.

Also I hope they rework the numbers. I hated how bloated and high the numbers got, please Larian.

Also, another thing, Source skills. My god most source skills were pathetic. Holy shit. Like, some of the skills should not have been 2 source points or even 1. Just no lol. I hope they change the source mechanic a bit and add more source skills (maybe skills not connected to ur class, just other ones like "Source Blast" that is used on the ship in the prologue).

I don't think source skills should be OP. Warfare and scoundrel got it right, all of the massive AoE shit like blood storm, grasp of starved, pyroclastic, meteor shower, thunderstorm etc is just broken and makes late game too easy

The only problem with those skills comes with the fact that in the previous game, you played as source hunters and they did those abilities without Source, which just...bugs me.

In a sense you can say its bc those characters were just that strong bc they were the "Defenders" and what not, but there was no other mention of those abilities being a source thing. And in OS2 we're supposed to be the chosen and powerful again, so I mean, idk. It's just me tho.

It also my biggest issue with the source system. In the first game everyone could use those 'source skills'. That the main chars were chosen demigods or what ever doesn't help with the issue, because enemies could use those 'source skills' as well.

Source management is one of the reason, I do not feel inclined to even finish the game, because it feels more bothersome than fun. Not to mention that some of those source skills are reported as pretty broken.

So, at the risk of spoiling myself, does anyome know if the post-final battle scenes / epilogue sections will get reworked?

Speaking of Spoilers, Spoilers Ahead....



Will we get to explore just what it was we were supposed to assist Malady with in exchange for her making us a demi-god (or not, as it were) ?

Any chance at really taking on the G King?

(Less absurdly ambitious) Will our protagonist will get the option to sail off into the sunset with their companion of coice?
