Some gameplay ~47:00 and 1:34:00, well.. not much gameplay. Skipping through trying to find if it's Turn Based or Real time w/ pause. I'd guess they mention it at some point in the video but I don't have time to watch a 2 hour stream.

Looks kind of like Divinity:OS 2, which is probably a good thing. I might still enjoy it even if it's only turn based since D:OS was fun.

Edit: Lol, the shorthand for Divinity Original Sin gets turned into a smiley face!

Last time they showed the game, combat was all turn based. It was probably the easiest/best way to adapt 5e to game format.

This is, honestly, what I've been hoping for. I love the real time aspect of the original Baldur's Gate, but turn based is integral to D&D. It just makes sense.

It'll also be great going in with a deep knowledge of 5e mechanics, and not having to deal with THAC0

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
