Baldur's Gate 3 vs Divinity Original Sin 2

[🦜Cloud Boy🦜]

Which one is better?

[Lukerjaque]

Try both, they are excellent!

I enjoyed DOS2 more, the rest system in BG3 is very hindering.

[Unrealtairo]

Today…DOS2

BG3 “after”…. a few months and very much needed mods and patches.

For now, still div2 by a VERY long mile. (Modded rest system alone would increase this games reception)

And Im talking combat wise only. Div2 combat destroys bg’s. Hopefully mods and patches do fix that perception, but ya for now. Hell no is bg3 better on that level

[Caldrin]

Both great games..

Divinity Original Sin 2 is better only because there are no rules, and everything else is better in Baldur's Gate 3

Well, Divinity Original Sin 2 allows you to fill a treasure chest full of rocks, then use telekinesis to sling it across town and murder everyone. On a shenanigans level, that takes the cake.

In my opinion, when it comes to interactions with the world, NPCs and so on, BG3 is vastly superior simply because of the quality of the dialogues and camera usage. The combat is, however, a significant downgrade compared to D:OS 2 and is simply vastly superior in D:OS 2. Because BG3 is a DnD game, it inherits from the rubbish combat system of DnD. This was a major flaw of D:OS 1 where a lot of the time you could get cucked by RNG. It was addressed in the excellent combat system of D:OS 2 but since Larian went with WotC, they had to use the DnD combat system.

Don't forget you can do hilarious things with Play Dead on multiplayer. xD

They are both great games. IMHO, BG3 is more a role playing game and DOS2 more a tactical combat game with role playing elements. Talking your way out of things and/or using trickery is definitely more of a feature with BG3 than it is with DOS2.

[Seraphiel]

Divinity 2 is better but BG3 is still very good.

[MegaClaus]

DOS2 is much better.

[Mochan]

Both are bad games. DOS2 is much better. WHich isn't saying much.

[HoRRoRFieD]

Div 2 obviously. BG3 combat is rubbish

[eram]

DOS2 so far but thats very hard to beat. wont know until ive finished bg3

[HoneyDrake]

DOS2 has a lot of pacing related issues.

So I will go for BG3.
