so yea, i know there's a div2 expansion in development, but it will be just a patch on to div 2.
my question is, if, and when, there will be a div 3 game, how do you expect it to be?
how do you expect it to look? and so on and so forth.. =)

I can't comment on Divinity 3, but regarding Flames of Vengeance, it's actually quite extensive for an add-on and to just call it a patch would be doing disservice to the amount of work that's been put in.

My guessing is that the term expansion is unknown to the new generation kids, right?

i diden't meant it to sound like it's an update patch on.
i tryed to give the frame picture, that it's gona run on the same graphics, and with some changes, would still be the same gameplay, on the same story ongo.

the idea to my question was, what graphic/gameplay/storyline, and details, would you hope for in the next game to come, not the expansion-because the expansion features are somewhat obvious.

so any way, sorry to diss =) have a happy moderating/playing

I hope Divinity III goes back to the series root, with isometric perspective and the beautiful 2D art. I loved the mix between Diablo and Ultima, and I REALLY missed this on Divinity II.

I used to prefer an isometric view for my RPGs, but I've grown to like a more personal camera view.

Divinity II: Ego Draconis has become my favorite Divinity title.


My Favorite RPGs: Divinity franchise, Gothic franchise (including Arcania, so I think I'm alone...), Venetica, Risen, Two Worlds II, The Witcher, Sacred franchise, Fallout franchise, Mass Effect 1, Alpha Protocol, Planescape: Torment, Drakensang, KOTOR 1 & 2, etc.

changing now is a big mistake, and i think diablo 3 will sell well because of the fans are huge.
if i were them i would expand the world improve the game about the mistakes they did in this title they can learn it for divinity 3 and not do again.
if they follow the path of divinity 2 i think in the future larian can have one of the best rpgs outthere.
even Two worlds failed in the 1st game and now the sequel shows promise

I disagree. There's absolutely no need for that except for the sake of nostalgia. The isomentric perspective and sprites isn't what made Divine Divinity good. It wasn't that we could pick up and move every individual cup, plate and fork


What made Divine Divinity good was the wide-open world with lots of interesting NPC's and interlocking and interrelated quests which were more than just simple fetch or "kill me the monstar" quests.

yea, i agree with stabbey.
every game i play is all about "kill that monster X times" or "kill that monster untill Y drops"
and the all time fevorite "go talk to this guy, so he can send you back to me"

the originality and the unique quests in divinity 1 made the game a success, and gave it a life.
if divinity 3 want to be a success, it needs that kind of viraity in quests collection.

lol, i personaly can list tons of idea's on what a div3 should have, out of what div2exp wont probebly get (like a server and multiplayer gameplay with achivment's. meh..)

I love both perspectives: 2D and 3D too!

Like Stabbey and others say I agree: a game is for me good if the Quests are like in DD!
And for me the Skills are also important! Personal I find the Skills in DD better, more possibilities like Repair, Identify, Know Creature ...
... The Alchemy-system I find more fun in DD than in D II.
But still, I find D II very good and fun and take it like it is, despites all my "nostalgy" to the DD world biggrin

PS: so I simply choose to play Divine Divinity again (on steam-version), still !! delight



On 7th of february 2015 : I start a new adventure in the Divinity world of Original Sin,
it's a Fantastic Freaking Fabulous Funny ... it's my All Time Favorite One !

Personally, I'd like to see other kinds of games taking place within this universe as well.

I could imagine Adventure games, SIMs and RTS.

But that's just my opinion ... wink

They will be starting on Divinity 3 as soon as they finish off other projects. See A quick status update.

A release date would be wild conjecture at this point.

DD - 2002
BD - 2004
D2:ED - 2009/2010
FoV/DKS - 2010 (expected)
D3 ... 2015, or so ???
