games

In DND you are EXPECTED to have a diverse team

and it just so happens necro is the strongest in the game so it feels balanced and fine

With coverage

though

Where as with divinity it’s same type or bust

on normal difficulty in divinity you can have a split team it doesnt matter

you should just not do 3/1

(like what you did)

Oh sorry yeah

My bad

2/2 or 4

i mean its not really your fault

I think nothing in that game is intuitive

its very much a trial by error game

which if you enjoy that can be very fun

but if you don't its very bad

if you're not thinking "what am I doing wrong, how can I improve my combat"

No I do not enjoy redoing the same fights

i didnt mean like that

i mean like, learning from where you're lacking

"my mage is useless, how can I make them useful?"

Yeah I’m retarded

the game gives you infinite free respecs purely for that reason

True

Yeah

Should’ve had better game sense

i dont think that means you're "bad" or "dumb"

How else is one to interpret that

.

(I mean by time it was a problem I was fed up with the game anyways)

if you enjoy expiermentation, and learning from your mistakes

then you will enjoy the game

if not then you won't

is how i put it

the terrain and CC system lends itself into that too

the games difficulty scales not only with your actual characters but it expects you to learn and understand its systems, from 3->4 you don't actually get that much stronger but the fights scale a lot more

because by that point they expect you to know to combo your abilites, use source skills

etc.

its why they have the arx filter and the giant refugee camp before it with skillbook vendors of all types

Well I got past the apparent filter

every fight expects you to be using the 3 source point abilties

Just by exploring a city

that do like 10k damage aoe

do i think it's perfect? not really

but i do think it's kinda ridiculous a lot of people complain about it and then don't have any new skills learned the past 20 hours and aren't using the insane abilites that the entire plot of act 2 is getting

like the plot of act 2 is getting those source points, just so you're strong enough and powerful enough- i.e. able to use said abilites

i think if they made source full restore after resting itd be more intuitive

but the difficulty you felt was more you refusing to go along with the games systems- which isn't your fault but more so the game not being for you

you wanted your levels to carry you alone

which isn't necisiarilly bad

5e/bg3 is the exact opposite of that though. you can't get better than full plate- unless you get something with godly effects, so realistically your act 1 equipment and weapons once you get a +1, can carry you the entire game probably

and since your levels give you everything you need, you can very much go through the whole game without touching a single merchant and just beelining quests

which again, is a valid and absolutely fine way to want to play a game

I don’t think you mean it but the way you speak is typically down

im just being ammicable!

Why do you two always fight

What the hell

Ugh…

its the equivalent of "the game isn't your speed" but at the same time I don't want that to come across negative because I don't mean it negatively

but there's not a nice way to put that fully

or it comes off wrong no matter what

even if its not

meant wrong

Okay here let me say what I mean

I don’t have autism so I don’t like divinity

i dont think its autism

i dont think strategy game = autism

I do

what youtube shorts does to a mfer

Well no that’s not true

Not strategy games

Specifically divinity

And other similar games

I like strategy games generally

But when the strategy is prebuffing my entire party with 10 buffs

And using optimal load outs

that's

not required

Erm

at all
