  • My problem isn’t with the game, but the fact that I put so many hours into it and beat it and now I want another experience like it… but I don’t know of any.

    I do have Divinity II on Switch. I’ll try that again unless you guys have a better idea.

    • Divinity 2 is great, I loved pillars of eternity 2, and it is a bit different but disco Elysium (I'd highly highly recommend torrenting it), The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk is kinda a goofy cartoony one but I enjoyed it.

    • Replay it with a different character and a different approach like reversing whichever way you did negotiate/combat or take the options you think are the worst choices.

      • That’s a good idea. I played with a custom character the first time. Maybe one of the premade characters would be a good idea this time.

        • If you did a fully custom character the first time, try playing as the Dark Urge origin. There's a good story there that you wouldn't have experienced elsewise.

          • Oh, I’m interested now. I’ll have to try that.

            • One of the devs said that playing the Dark Urge while trying to do a good alignment run was the most heroic run. That’s definitely what I’m trying on my next game.
