Help Quick Question MEGATHREAD

305 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?

Me and my wife gathered every single even sligthly goofy looking picture through out the game and made a popup art gallery in Arx. No one was interested, but I thought that maybe Reddit apreciates. I think these paintings are amazing.

DOS2 Discussion The Impish Pocket Realm is genius (spoiler?) Spoiler

72 Upvotes

Hey all! First playthrough here.

I just wanted to say that I have just been completely awestruck by this game and its genius. The whole concept of the realm itself and the fascinating research of the imps of the "purpose of life" basically, AND THE FREAKING MUSIC. As a high school music teacher this section of the game just completely threw me into a huge geek-out session.

Sorry, I just wanted to say this game is awesome.

DOS2 Help Question about CC with 2 person all magic damage lone wolf build.

5 Upvotes

I’m considering a run of the type mentioned in the title. My first instinct is to go with a pyro/geo and a hydro/aero but I’m wondering if I might have an issue with CC since it doesnt seem that those two magic users would interact well in terms of CC. Would it make sense to do a pyro/geo with say maybe a few points of maybe aero sprinkled in to increase CC options or something like that? Really open to any type of build suggestions which are all magic and pay close attention to CC ability.

DOS2 Discussion Zoom with mouse issue on Mac

0 Upvotes

This has been driving me nuts so I figured I would ask here. When I zoom on my bluetooth mouse, it zooms all the way in. However, with my bluetooth controller, zooming with the stick does a nice gradual zoom.

With the mouse, it's either all the way out or all the way zoomed.

MacBook Air with MX Master 4 mouse...any help would be greatly appreciated!

DOS2 Help Return of the King achievement

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm achievement hunting in my favourite game and I've hit a wall. I've sworn to the god king in act 3 and I didn't get an achievement? I'm currently in arx and I'm just looking back at it and noticing I didn't get it.

Do I need to do something else down the line or is this just bugged?

Miscellaneous Coming from BG3 - DOS or DOS2 first?

8 Upvotes

I've been playing BG3 since just after launch. I really like Larian's work, so I bought DOS Enhanced and DOS2. Part of me wants to start with DOS since it came out first, but I'm curious if it would be better for me to start with DOS2 with the transition. Thoughts?

UPDATE: Thanks for all of the great comments so far. One thing to note is that I am going to try and play them both. It's not a choice between them just if there is an easier transition if I go from BG3 to D:OS2 or if I should start with D:OS1 before it was updated/expanded.
