I dont want this game to end

55 Hours in so far currently at act 3, level 9 in the endless dungeon but i feel like im am nearing the end now :-(
Im playing with a "offensive-tank" moon godlike paladin as main hero. Rest of the crew is Edér as tank, grieving mother as close combat dps, kana as heavy metal rifle-chanter, durance the pirate (with hat and pistol XD) and aloth as...aloth^^.

Im having so much fun with this game and im glad they didnt use the d&d rules so you can realy play every character as YOU want them to be. Pillars is extremly refreshing and playable while stil feeling like an oldschool rpg.

How do you guys like the game so far? Seeing the incredible positiv reviews and feedback lets me hope for an addon "soon" *fingers crossed*

*edit*
I think once im through with this playthrough i´ll probably start a new one using only custom characters for roleplaying. Would be cool if there was an option to start the game with your group right away

I'll post in your thread :)

I don't want it to end either. Loving every second of it. I am nowhere near as far as you and the speed at which I play games, an expansion may well be out!

Did you blitz the story? Skip all the dialogue or something? cause the first big city is taking me longer than 2 days to complete Took me 14 hours alone on the guilded veil quests and exploration. There is an expansion coming but I think you missed some side quests. They aren't in your face like HEY TALK TO THIS GUY> HE HAS MEGA GEAR/GOLD if you do this quest. Hell did you even max caed nua?

I'm having a blast with this game! Same party member as you (except grieving mother) with my main hero as a Human fighter specializing with the Estoc. 27 hours in and almost at level 5 with every character. Always a tough choice of choosing an ability for your main character. Still on Act 1 I believe and I'm currently on the 3rd level of the Endless Paths.

I am also hoping Obsidian will do an addon, I would love to get more out of this game!

maybe it's the difficulty thing... Did you play on less than hard? Cause if you Only missed one side quest the latter 2 acts are really short... Hope Im wrong. But still 55 hours is a great length. Please keep it spoiler free though. Just really curious how you beat it so fast when I feel like this game is almost endless Not even close to a climax yet.

i think once i hit lvl 8-10 with my group i just startet steamrolling through every fight. im playing on normal aswell. The only enemy thats keeps kicking me in the ass is one of the bountys, the ogre shamen (forgot his name). I think the rifles (blunderbuss etc) are a bit overpowered. For a while i was running around with 4 out of 6 partymembers with blunders and almost every fight was over bevore it startet. Even some bossbattles where like one big focus-fire shot at the start of the battle aaaaand the boss is dead.

unfortunately i didnt like divinity at all :-/ i realy wanted to like it but it just wasnt for me. The (for me at least) horrible wrighting and bad humor killed the mood over and over again. I only got 5 hours on divinity and those weren´t very enjoyable

It's not for everybody, but I really enjoyed Divinity. It's different, for sure. The humor, world-building, and writing is very on-par with past Divinity titles, which is a draw for people like me that loved them. Divinity II was such an underrated game. It's supposed to be a really cliche light-hearted fantasy atmosphere. The writing correlates with that goal. Fair enough though, some people only prefer more serious and 'dark' RPGs like PoE. I love both. Although, PoE does have superior writing no question about that. Divinity just scratches a different itch. And it really does have better combat, which is kind of a shame. If PoE had combat more on par with Divinity's, this game would probably be my favorite RPG of all [recent] time.

I couldn't finish D:OS either, because of the style - turning into a barrel while sneaking, just blew my immersion. I know, little thing.

I am considering wasteland 2 (another thread on here) to spread out my RPG enjoyment

True Baldur's Gate 3 at heart. Brings back memories. :)

You must gather your party before venturing forth.

What difficulty are you playing? Maybe you should have statred with Hard/PotD so the game would have lasted a lot longer. Battles would definetly lasted longer due to increase number and higher rank ememies.
