The Red Prince from DOS2 and Astarion from Baldur's Gate 3 looking shocked.

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The success of Divinity: Original Sin 2 is what led to the ground-breaking development of Baldur's Gate 3. With a bigger budget and more time, Larian Studios took a big step forward in many ways with its latest title, using motion capture to improve animation and cinematic storytelling to make the game more immersive.

9 DOS2 Races Change Gameplay More Elves Eat People Close Races in Baldur's Gate don't tend to matter mechanically all that much; some interactions are different and some get extra abilities, but it tends to be treated as an aesthetic difference most of the time. Divinity makes races matter much more.

In Divinity, making large areas wet to later freeze or electrify adds a new layer to the combat. It becomes even more tactical when enemies also use these effects to their advantage. Of course, this can get out of hand at times, especially if a character is using a pyrokinetic wizard build. These builds often result in everything in the nearby area being set on fire, so be careful not to burn allies.

Divinity is far harsher than BG3, since the latter's classes offer a safety net which ensures that it is hard to make a build that is bad. It is the opposite with Divinity, as players need to know what they're doing with their build to escape mediocrity. On the other hand, those that know what they are doing can make truly ridiculous builds that can defeat any enemy with ease.

To be fair to BG3, it is the harder game to implement co-op, since it is more cinematic, which presents issues alone, but the companions also have separate gauges for relationships. This makes it hard for both player characters to raise affinity with others, and, in general, the BG3 co-op experience feels like the world belongs to one player while the other is a visitor. This is technically the case, but no one likes to feel like player 2.
