They not only ward you against certain elements but they also give you a shield that absorbs an unholy amount of damage for you. The magical shields are flat out overpowered. Unfortunately by the end of the game, things devolved into a strict formula that I had found that works and never deviated from. Every fight even feels like a puzzle to be solved, a similar feeling to old Final Fantasy games. I love Divinity as a tactical game and puzzlish RPG. I find myself enjoying it much more despite all that, somehow. POE is a buggy mess (Exp: no auto-attack? Really?) that feels incomplete in many ways (exp: The entire Stronghold). Sounds minor, but I think I've spent at least 30% of my last game just fiddling with party equipment. No way to speed up movement and none of the teleporters start you off directly at the vendors or smiths. Level scaled loot also gets annoying as well, as I am constantly re-equipping my party members (I try to use all four companions.). Overpowered talents like Glass Cannon or the original implementation of Leech don't help either. You can multiclass a bit but its all about hitting stat minimums without gimping yourself too much (generally 8 int for self buffs and utility). STR (Warriors), Rogue (Dex), Intelligence (Wizards). While the leveling system is theoretically open I find that there are very few ways to build characters. While I think Divinity: Original Sin's game engine is superior I find many choices in design kinda boring. better than DOS).Īs ppaladin says you can't go wrong with either but the 25th August release of the PoE expansion and the October estimate for enhanced DOS edition would seem to determine the obvious and recommended choice of play order. better than PoE as well as different) but the writing, story, chararcterisation, lore, history etc of PoE to be exceptionally good (i.e. Note that many consider DOS TB combat to be stellar (i.e. I think 15$ for part I and 25$ for parts I & II if you buy them together.īoth are great games and I don't think you can go wrong with either. That increases the level cap, adds more characters, adds more features (some of which everyone with the base game will get), etc. Note that PoE is about to get an expansion "White March Part I" on Augist 26th and there is at least one more (White March Part II) that will be coming out maybe late this year/early next year (?).
#PILLARS OF ETERNITY DEFINITIVE EDITION VS ORIGINAL FOR FREE#
You get it automatically for free if you own D:OS. Note that D:OS has an enhanced edition coming out around October that is supposed to improve the story, the UI, the inventory system, make it fully-voiced, add more combat skills, etc. D:OS is cartoony/funny/filled with cheesy puns.īoth are partially voiced actedand both have excellent soundtracks. Originally posted by ppaladin123:PoE is real time (with pause) and D:OS is turn-based so they do have different play styles.
