Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Armor rework for a possible enhanced edition?

Yes, I fully agree. I've been wanting to play the game again but I can't force myself to do it because not only the armor system, but also the itemization that goes against any sense of RPG I have. The idea of having to make trips to the store every time I level up just makes me wanna hurl.

I wish they made an EE for DOS2 because I really enjoyed the companions aspect of it, it reminded so much of Baldur's Gate II and it was a huge improvement over the first DOS. The rest is a mess, sadly. Even the final fight is terrible, nothing but cheese all around.

For me, the things that require absolute attention are:
* Itemization: remove that RNG crap, and reduce the difference between levels so items don't get obsolete as soon you level up.
* Armor system: either rework it or remove it, because right now it's justa annoying.
* Difficulty: enemies should be harder because they're smarter and more skillful, not because they have a million points of armor stacked for no reason at all.
* Terrain hazzards: the fact that every fight ended covered in fire and I barely cared about it was a total letdown, and a terrible downgrade from the first DOS.
* Stats: they're worthless. Bring back the DOS1 system.
* Skills / Abilities: they're a no brainer. Warfare is mandatory and sometimes a lvl15 character can basically perform just as fine as a lvl1 with some skills, it makes no sense.

Those are the first that come to my mind right now, but there are others, mentioned over and over in the forum, even in a thread I made.

I'll cross my fingers for a enhanced edition. For now, it's back to DOS1.
