    If I personally consider Baldur’s Gate 3 to be better than cocaine, will I like divinity?

    I could google it, but you’re right here and as soon as I close this tab I will 100% forget

    Also it Google might send me to reddit and fuck that

      Unlike BG3 where the combat is based upon a TTRPG, the combat in Divinity is designed around Turn Based video games.

      All of the abilities have a cooldown instead of being limited resources. Which is difficult to do with pen and paper, but works perfectly on a computer.

      The way you do builds is also a lot more dynamic, there isn’t really classes as much as there are different fighting styles with abilities which you can mix and match however you want.

      The only thing Divinity lacks compared to BG3 is the cutscenes. Which is kind of important in a story based game.

      BG3 is my GOTY. Divinity Original Sin 2 is my favorite game of all time. The story/writing isn’t as strong in Divinity but the combat is a work of art. I’ve beaten BG3 twice, I’m in the middle of a multiplayer run, and I’ll run through the game at least once more after the major updates are finished being released. I’ve finished Divinity six or so times and will continue running the game for a long, long time. It’s 110% worth your time and money
