Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) General Considering Buying....

I can't wati!

cue the stupid music I get a themesong too!

Well there were 2 exceptional expansions for NeverWinterNights, Temple of Elemental Evil (something like that), an expansion for Marrowind, some other stuff too...

Guys try not to refer to sacred in comparison to anything, I have sacred and am well aware of its buggy-ness. However you should know as well as I that the game was forced into release before it was even complete, Atari did the same with Temple of Elemental Evil. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/down.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/idea.gif" alt="" /> BTW you guys know any games that are like, Morrowind or Gothic 2? Those are my favorite RPGs <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />, Lots of Quests, Items, talking to people and in the case of GOthic 2 my favorite combat ever.

Back to Beyond Divinity, going by the demo the combat is too automatic. you go near an emeny hold Ctrl, click then could leave the room ( <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sleepey.gif" alt="" /><- exagerated) The only reason you would need to stick around would be to drink potions, Which methinks is pretty lame, In Divine Divinity the combat was faster and your speed was based more on clicks per second, unlike Beyond divinity where the guys take turns in slo-mo.

DD combat => one click for conventional weapons and multiple right clicks for magic

BD combat => is slower, correct, but this is due to the restrictions you have on speed, acc etc. One click for conventional weapons and either left/ or right-clicks for magic, depending on what is your primary/secondary skill is.

If you think, it's not your kind of game - that's ok, tastes are different and say nothing about quality/nonquality of a game - only something about your preferences. I disliked Gothic 1 and therefore didn't buy Gothic 2 => was it a bad game? No, never. Won awards, has a large fan community: so, it's a game for others, not me. Games live by plurality.

Gothic 2 is alot better then gothic one in my oponion, I had gothic 2 and loved it so bought gothic one.... but they dont compare, Just like Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity

BTW instead of buying Beyond Divnity I bought GTA Vice City
