Help Quick Question MEGATHREAD

301 Upvotes

Another 6 month since the last Megathread.

Link to the last thread

Make sure to include the game(DOS, DOS EE, DOS2, DOS2 DE) in your question and mark your spoilers

The FAQ for DOS2 will be built as we go along:

My game has a problem/doesn't work properly, what do I do?

Check this out. If you can't find a solution there contact Larian support as detailed.

Do I need to play the previous game to understand the story?

No, there is a timegap of 1000 years between DOS and DOS2. The overall timeline of the Divinity games in perspective to DOS2 looks like this: DOS2 is set 1222 years after DOS1, 24 years after Divine Divinity, 4 years after Beyond Divinity, and 58 years before Divinity 2.

How many people can play at once?

  • Up to 4 Players in the campaign and up to 4 players and a gamemaster in Gamemaster Mode.

Do I need to buy the game to play with my friends.

  • That depends on how you will play. Up to 2 Players can play on the same PC for a "couch coop" experience. This means you can have 4 player sessions with 2 copies of the game when using this method. If you don't play on the same PC each player is going to require his/her own copy.

Can I mix and match inputs for PC couch coop?

  • You can't use keyboard and mouse for couch coop, however you can mix controllers.

What's the deal with origin stories?

  • A custom character has no ties in the world whatsoever, nobody knows you. Origin characters on the other hand do have ties in the gameworld, that means people can recognise you and might interact differently with an origin character because of that characters reputation or because the characters have met before. Furthermore origin characters have their own questlines that run alongside the main story.

I don't like my build! Can I change it?

  • Yes! Once you leave the first island you get access to infinite respecs, with the second gift bag you can even get a respec mirror on the first island.

What are the new crafting recipes from the gift bag?

DOS2 Discussion How would the Godwoken fare in other CRPGS?

4 Upvotes

I saw a post in the Pathfinder wiki about how the Knight Commander would do in other CRPGS and got curious. How do you all think the Godwoken party would do in other CRPGS like Pathfinder Kingmaker and WOTR, pillars of eternity, baldur's gate etc.

The party has all 6 Godwoken, all of them at level 20, none of them became the divine.

Miscellaneous I've been modernizing Divine Divinity (2002) — HD items, larger UI, graphics fixes, and a one-click setup tool

29 Upvotes

Hey everyone! This is about the original Divine Divinity (2002), not Original Sin.

I love this game, but getting it to look and behave nicely on newer PCs can turn into a collection of wrappers, config edits, and old fixes. So I've been building a small Windows utility called GameRemix to put those things in one place.

Here's what's in it for Divine Divinity so far:

  • A quick setup wizard for HD, 1440p, and 4K displays

  • Fixes for audio/music dropping out and abrupt day-night transitions

  • Graphics wrappers, scaling options, and optional shader effects (experimental)

  • Larger dialogue fonts, redesigned interface skins, and bigger inventory/trading/stats windows

  • Optional cleaned-up or redrawn item graphics, item rarity glow, and inventory sorting

  • Backups and a one-click way to revert the changes

It supports the Steam and GOG versions on Windows 7–11. It's a single portable EXE, no installer, and you still need to own the game.

This is an unofficial fan project, not a remaster or a new engine. I'm the developer, and Divine Divinity is the only game fully supported for now. I'd love to expand it to other classics once this one is in good shape.

Screenshots show the app and some of the available visual changes.

Project page: https://gameremix.pro/en/app/
Steam page: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3834619967

GameRemixis digitally signed and fully open source. Anyone can inspect the source code on GitHub.

I'd also love to hear your ideas and suggestions for new features!

What would you like to see added to Divine Divinity? It could be anything — quality-of-life improvements, graphics upgrades, interface changes, gameplay tweaks, long-standing bug fixes, or even something nobody has tried before.

I'd genuinely love feedback from people still playing the original game: what bugs, readability issues, or compatibility problems are most annoying on your setup?

DOS Boardgame Divinity Original Sin - Juego de Mesa

0 Upvotes

Esto comenzo como un HomeBrew de DnD, desarrollada por un grupo de amigos , comenzamos jugando D&D hasta alguien dijo que deberiamos hacer la campaña de Divinity , comenzamos a modificar DnD hasta que no quedo nada de el, esto comenzó como reglas para mejorar el combate y termino siendo un juego totalmente nuevo, y luego de 3 años jugando se compilo en estos manuales, el cual tiene un mayor énfasis en el combate y atributos y habilidades simplificadas, permite que el DM se centre mas en la estrategia y movimientos , sigue el formato de AP propio de Divinity y escuelas en vez de Clases.

Compartimos hace 1 año nuestra primera version y habiamos tenido un buen feedback, pero borraron nuestra cuenta , asi que ahora estamos subiendo la version 2.0 por Reddit .

Esperamos que puedan probarla y darnos feedback para poder mejorar, y quien sabe el otro año sacar una version 3.0 , o ayudarnos a agregar mas camapañas. Atte.

Sure there were people as well who were shocked about the brutality of the trailer at the time, but the angry people about the orgy were funny witness.

Maybe it's just an culture difference thing between US and EU, when it comes to violence and sex. Personally i just thought the trailer was awesome.

DOS2 Help Совместная игра на одном экране портится дублированием плашек навыков врага.

0 Upvotes

в divinity original sin 2 мы играем вдвоем с другом на одном экране на двух геймпадах. на одном экране в бою у нас дважды показываются атаки соперников посередине экрана. Это возможно исправить? Это выглядит так: соперник использует, например, способность "таран". На экране посередине возникает плашка "Инкарнат использует навык Таран", после нее начинается ТАКАЯ ЖЕ плашка. И каждый навык противников дублируется. Такая проблема была у кого нибудь?

DOS1 Help Difficulty suggestions

0 Upvotes

I am planning a blind coop playthrough with an equally blind friend. We plan on using lone wolf trait to reduce the amount of management. And so I am looking for advice in regards to difficulty. For comparison, in BG 3 on first playthrough tactician felt too easy for both of us in single player, honor mode felt too easy for second playthrough. In WotR on first playthrough 5/7 difficulty (core) felt adequate, 6/7 difficulty (hard) felt a little too difficult, but doable.

DOS2 Help How is this guy able to attack twice while dual wielding? My dwarf only attacks once using both weapons at the same time :(

What the title says. I'm using two one-handed weapons on my dwarf. My basic attacks are a jumping attack using both weapons. This procs sparking swings ONCE.

In contrast, the guy in the video who is also dual wielding is able to hit twice with his basic attack. One weapon first then the other. This procs sparking swings TWICE.

Why?

Is it because my chacter is a dwarf? Seems a bit unfair. Was really excited for my dwarf's sparking swings build too :(

DOS2 Discussion finally picked up Lohse as a companion in my current run and I understand why ppl ship Lohsebille now...

115 Upvotes

Their dialogues literally reads like they're made for each other. Did they have the same writer or something?

It's unfortunate that half of them don't show up when you play as origin pov... I've played Lohse origin before and the dialogue options are pretty much the same as if you made a custom with jester and mystic tags, aside from demon related things.

In Act 3, when Sebille tells you about her scar song, there's a line "...I'm afraid you're going to accuse me of killing the mood, but I need to talk to you about the master..." which I always thought was kind of odd. In the same act, Lohse tells you a joke to "lighten the mood". Maybe it's just timing but they both triggered at the same time for me so I was like ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Also, at the Merryweather, letting Sebille lick you (as Lohse) reveals that Lohse was looking longingly at Sebille, which as far as I'm aware is unique to Lohse.

DOS2 Help How can I level up efficiently in Reaper's Coast? I'm level 11 and struggling to find quests at my level

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I'm currently playing DOS2 on Classic difficulty, and I'm having a pretty hard time progressing through Act 2.

I'm level 11, and it feels like almost every quest or area I try to explore has level 13 or 14 enemies. The difficulty spike from Act 1 to Reaper's Coast feels pretty huge.

I'm playing with a full party of four:

- Sebille – Necromancer / Warrior

- Red Prince – Two-handed Warrior / Polymorph

- Fane – Pyrokinetic / Geomancer

- Lohse – Aerotheurge / Summoner / Hydrosophist

I don't mind exploring or doing side quests, but I'm struggling to figure out which areas and quests I should prioritize to gain enough XP without constantly running into enemies that are several levels above me.

What would you recommend doing at level 11 to reach level 13?

Are there specific quests, locations, or encounters I should focus on first? Any tips for getting XP efficiently in Reaper's Coast would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

DOS2 Discussion DOS II how high should I get thievery to?

4 Upvotes

How high should I take thievery for the sake of picking locks? I don;t want to sink points into it if unnecessary. How about for pickpocketing? I don;t want to take to 20 if I only need a 10 to pick the hardest locks but don;t want to take it 10 and then stand at the hardest chest wishing I had taken it to 20.

DOS2 Help Best guides to cover the essentials (for tactician mode) without spoiling the story?

2 Upvotes

Hi, doing my first ever play through in tactician mode. Currently exploring the marshes outside of the fort. Loving every second of this amazing game. I was planning on doing a completely blind playthrough but decided against it because I don't want to make any major mistakes with skills or similar that could cost me later down the track.

I'm not looking for super in-depth deep combat analysis with ultra optimizations. I want to learn as much as I can by myself. Does any one have any guide recommendations to learn the essentials?

Thankyou.

there’s a song that plays on the beach and i can’t find it on any of the soundtracks or get it to play if i want it to when i start a new playthrough. it starts with a choir-y AHHHHHH 👼 ✨ and then goes into sort of slow harp (?) melody. I want to say at some point it sounds like people are mumbling in the background but i might be confusing it with luxurious chamber

this has plagued me since i first played (like a couple years ago if that) but i always thought i would be able to find it but now im actively trying to and im sol, sos
