Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Save Game: the most OP spell in the game

If you don't want to save scum, either play honour mode or just don't do it.

Me and my friend like to explore and test stuff. So we sometimes save just in case everything goes wrong. Sometimes we forget and just need to redo a bigger part of the game. Like the one time he sneak into the possible ambush, I followed and forgot to sneak, starting the ambush with him in the middle. But we would never save scum every chest and every attack, that is just stupid and a waste of time. If one attack can ruin everything, you need a better plan. The times were everything seems to go downhill and you real need to think about how to save, are the times we enjoy the most, thats why we hope tactical mode will give even more reason to save and reload a fight. :)

As I've said before on this thread, and will gladly say again: I like how this has touched a nerve, and generated some dialogue.

What I don't like is how pompous and acerbic some are becoming over what was largely tongue-in-cheek to begin with. Did the title not give it away??? Do we not do humour across the seas? Maybe it's an Irish thing - come visit us, and you'll realise 90% of the things we say are a p*** take.

I've said I don't want this feature enforced, regardless. And that if it was to be in the game, it should be a checkbox. I was also looking to see if we'd have a bit of fun with the more po-faced among us, who want everything easy and handed to them on a plate (chill, chill: this is again me just taking the p*** - be the bigger person, and don't rise to the bait!!).

To be honest, most here seemed to have got the joke, know that I was only half-serious and so on. A good sign!

However, I would like to propose that Larian maybe consider giving us a 'custom game experience' option that allows us to fine-tune aspects like saves etc (on/off), provided it's not too much development time and doesn't take from the more important aspects of the game.

Hey, that sounds like a great idea!

What places of Ireland would you recommend a foreigner visit? Specifically, a Texan with a thick country drawl and knee-high cowboy boots?

I'm ethnically Irish, so much so that my grandmother's maiden name was Ireland, and thanksgiving is usually nothing but corned beef! (I know, I know, that's irish american.) I've always wanted to visit a whole nation full of people with curly brown hair and a sense of humor just like mine!

Simple answer, simple fix ^_^ +1

Ha - there's few on the planet that have a sense of humour as provocative as the Irish But maybe the Texans come close... I worked on a big(ish) IT project with some Texans a few years back. A company called Tektronix Communications (google tells me they've now merged with someone else). I like the Texans, I have to say. No airs and graces, good craic all the way.

You won't be disappointed if you visit Ireland, anyway. It's like you can't go wrong, and you have my word on that. Irish nightlife is the best you can get - but I'd personally recommend Dublin or Galway if you want the best of that. Sure, there are pretty places like Kerry to visit, but you can see nice mountains and trees everywhere. Come for the pubs, I say!

Hang on: were we supposed to be making suggestions on a video game? Put an Irish pub in the first big town, Larian! Come on now - they're everywhere. Even the French have them. Every fantasy world should have an Irish pub too, don't you know...

My suggestion? All lizards are British, elves are Irish and dwarves are straight outta Cockney!

'All lizards are British'. Now that's provocative We're good pals with the British these days (I wholly endorse their approach to soccer), though god knows we might as well be elves and they might as well be lizards thanks to 'them and us' Brexit...

Thanks for the online-land advice, BTW. I'll keep that in mind. Though I've enjoyed the comments from the forum characters so far, nasty and neutral and nagging and everything in between. It's all good! When next I've some free time, I look forward to logging on and reading the next scathing putdown for something I've suggested wherever and whenever.

On a more serious note, I do believe the comments here are mostly intelligent and relevant, otherwise I wouldn't bother. I really would like to see this game become the best strategy game made, and think it will anyway, even if they leave in that poxy durability thing...

Yeah, I agree! Glad I could help, and doubly glad you're enjoying yourself.
