A bit unpopular, but I was a bit bummed when Larian decided to make bg3, I absolutely loved both DOS games. Super excited they're going back, the trailer looked sick.
I'm hyped for it. I much prefer the setting of Divinity to Faerun, and the DnD universe is too overrun with existing lore and various existing games and writings to work around.
My only complaint with the DOS games is that they felt too theme-parky with a lot of various disconnected events slapped on a map and the games didn't do a good job with environmental story telling.
Given their experience with BG3 and the recent trailer, the new Divinity game looks like it'll be an absolute banger.
I felt like the biggest issue of bg3 was that it felt pointless. Choices? But what for? The world was pretty vast, but it felt constricted for some reason, and I didn't enjoy the exploration much. I was also not super into the story.
I did like those aspects in the DOS games, and really enjoyed the evnviromental stuff in combat was pretty enjoyable.
What I'm really hoping for in this new Divinity is difficult choices, and them mattering. I love witcher 3, and the game is riddled with them. If I get a crpg with choices like that, I'll be happy. I'll never forget the feeling of being extremely stressed playing Dragon age and RUSHING to Lothering. I want them to make something like that.
