OG gamers, level with me.

Is this BG3 or DoS3 (typo repaired for Loquat) with a BG mod?

Give the hard truth i can take it?

I played about 5hrs... this is definitely Divinity OS2 but with some tweaks and a BG skin/mod. Everything else is almost identical to DOS

[PatatePotato]

It's BG3 but turned based.

[Loquat]

Did I miss DoS3? Darn.

[Greywolf]

Dont go in expecting BG3, expect DOS with the 5e ruleset and Forgotten Realms setting

[Wintermist]

Ask me again once I played the whole storyline :)

[Tysere]

Take this as someone who's played DOS2 and is really into 5e and wanted a 5e based game. This is DO2 5e mod, is what it feels like. Likely, though, bc there's SO MUCH COMBAT all the time. And it devolves into floorbad all the time just like DOS does. But with 5e spellslots/combat rules.

BG3 with turn based and 5e rules. It just happens to graphically look almost identical to DoS2. Also, the intro plot is...... 100% exactly DoS2 with a slight lore retool

Very similar to OS 2. To the point where I would say if you didn’t like that, you won’t like this. Nearly identical in a lot of regards

It's not BG2, but since 5e isn't AD&D, it shouldn't be.

If you're going in expecting some similar to BG1/2 you're going to be let down.

If you're going in expecting something like DOS3, you're going to be let down.

It's a blend, there's things you can tell are from D&D CRPG like BG1/2, but it's also using the divinity engine so it does have that DOS feel.

It's more than just a mod, it's a new engine, but that engines father is DOS2.

[L3ros]

It's based on D&D 5e pretty faithfully. So far the FR lore seems in check.
The combat also seems more like in a D&D game, not based on combining different liquids, but that is still an option. I'm only 5 hours in, but so far I like it more than the Divinity games, but that and the encounter design could change at any time.

[Antinomy]

This is DOS3.

[Batailleuse]

well,

first menu has PARTS of DoS2 music in it
First menu is too similar to DoS2 (beach setup)

DoS2, you start on a ship you need to escape, ♥♥♥♥ happens, you crash end up on a beach
BG3, you start on flying ship you need to escape, ♥♥♥♥ happened, you crash and end up on a beach.

even the Prologue area setup is pretty much a reskin of the DoS2 first area (more or less)

i played 7h and honestly i just feel the game lacks its own identity, when you hear the music you feel like DoS again, but you see DnD skin everywhere.

its a midge disapointing. game is good regardless, but the beginning feels very un inspired or rather too much inspired by DoS2.
