Lady Error so they finally took away your "Literally Hitler" tag haha.

Lately, I have been playing Breath of the Wild. I was talking about its weaknesses in its pages and I decided to give it another shot. I still don't like the survival-esque feeling of the game, and I still hate the breaking weapons. But there are still some good qualities that it has. I still stand by what I said, it's a Zelda flavored Skyrim. I think it's a better game than Skyrim because it has much more fun combat.

Yeah, asking nicely actually works sometimes.

As to games, I want to try Divinity: Original Sin 2. Really liked the first one, but I hear that part 2 has been fucked up in various ways?

DOS2 is a decent game. The armor system is really stupid, and I very much dislike the character building, but I liked it enough to finish it. Essentially the armor system forces you to focus either on Magic or Physical attacks, thereby limiting the versatility of your party. However, I ran the game with one mage and three physical attackers and it still worked out fairly well. Basically every enemy has two armor “health bars” and you have to deplete them before you can actually hurt them, and what’s worse, you have to deplete the armor bar if you want to apply status effects.

In DOS1, you could cheese the Braccus Rex fight by hitting him with a knockdown arrow every round. Such a strategy is impossible in DOS2 unless you first deplete the physical armor bar.

All dialogue options are pretty strange. A good example:

Normal RPG:
- “Why do I have this collar around my neck?”

DOS2:
- *Demand to know why they put a collar around your neck*

Kalin was blocked from the shoutbox, and there was a poll. Everyone who voted that he shouldn't be blocked anymore has now been quarantined into GD.

For your effort and defending an innocent from censorship, you all got an exclusive tag , something no money can buy, something everyone will be jealous of forever . If you are not pleased by it, nothing will.
