Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General We have 1.5Mio, How to make a better stronghold?

@Lacrymas:
- You have your opinion about what kind of games you like. Many things you say make sense. But your opinion is not the gold standard for game developers all over the world.

- What is a good game/movie/book and what not can only be seen after it is published. There were big hypes but the final product was bad. I found many games/movies by chance (means I saw it on TV or in a shop and I have never heard of it before) and they were very good. And there were others which were ignored when released but they became famous later.

- regarding some of your examples:
+ Baldurs Gate 2: I like this game but it has definitely not a well balanced system, as you call it. Take a Kensai->Mage or cleric/mage with improved alancrity, robe of vecna and some contingencies/spell triggers vs another class like a fighter. Almost every class has dump stats (does anybody need charisma?). The ultimate example is the sorcerer whose casting power is based on nothing but his level. D:OS was more balanced than any DnD game ever was.

+ I play KotoR2 at the moment and Kreia is my favourite character of all times.
But the game was released unfinished and you have to use a mod to see all content. I mean content made by the developers, not by fans.

+ PST is regarded by many RPG fans (including myself) as one of the best games ever. But combat was often terrible (and unbalanced because its DnD). There are many people who will never play it bacause they do not like reading tons of text.

No game ever made was perfect and no one ever will be. I am sure that D:OS2 will be a good game. But I am also sure that you will find some things that could have been made better. And even if the game was perfect for you, there will be lots of people who will complain about all kinds of things.
