Larian Studios Forums Divinity: Original Sin 2 Divinity - Original Sin 2 - General Gift Bags, Should I use them?

Hello beautiful Divinity people.

I want a little advice. I finished DOS I a few years ago. I'm starting to play DOS II today. I want to have a "pure" experience going through DOS II. No mods. I've never been a mod person. No mods on Skyrim or any other games. But those Gift Bags... they look so tempting. And for being "official" mods, I'm kinda okay with them.

So my fear is: are the Gift Bags going to make the game too easy for me? I want to play DOS II as it was originally intended to be played.
Are the Gift Bags going to make the game too easy? or are they just going to add a bunch of cool features?

I used to play DOS I on Classic and Tactical difficulties. For DOS II, I'm going with Classic.

I don't care about achievements.
