How does the gameplay compare to Divinity 2?


oh well.. sadly, i didnt play divinity 2.

Combat is kinda like Assassins Creed, but with some special Melee Skills. (breaking a shield with a shockwave / throwing a Shockwave in form of Magical damage as strong as your Physical stats around you, and more.)

Archery is.. hmm.. dunno. Like Oblivion i'd say? you can Autoaim, and then you can hold the button to make a stronger shot. (you can walk away while doing so), you can enter sniping mode, which allows you to aim at enemies further away, or to take multiple arrows at once and hit 2 Opponents with one Shot. (There are also Stunning/Poison Shots, aswell as Fire/Ice/Thundershots.. those are Skills. the ammount of Arrows is infinite, only special Shots require Mana. )

Sorcery will be tried later, for now, i am happy with swinging  mah Sword around. :D

 

(more about this Game's gameplay in general will follow later)

 

@Pyramid:

it will be definetly released in AU aswell, but on (i think it was the 11th of) January 2011.

cool, then I'll just w8...=)

Divinity II really was underrated.  Those character gestures and movements during the cutscenes were odd but gameplay was fun and the only framerate stutters were during the dragon sequences.  Voicework, music and gameplay were quite good, the settings and quests were interesting.  I'd put D2 just slightly below G4 overall and better than TW or Risen.  G4 has that changing cam view that takes some getting used to.  Jmos obviously.   I'm sure TW2 will be better.

The bow mechanic sounds good, a little like Fable TLC maybe.  TW had it's strong points and the bow lock was one of them.  That and the 662 armour sets.   I really prefer third-person view which Oblivion did pretty badly.  I like to see my customized character.   I don't mind any of the comparisons but it seemed like the 'Oblivion on steroids' comment from TopWare really caused a backlash.  Just trying to keep my expectatons in check.  Sorry to go on and on.... and on.

Awesome. You died in the end. Kidding. lol.

I like the fact that your character can run. And, in the beginning, you kept running in circles and that made me dizzy.

Can you hide your weapon when you are not fighting?

Also, if I heard correctly, you were just mashing buttons in the fight? I heard right? Also, it seemes difficult to properly target the enemy.

Mashing buttons?


Thats the Reason i died. ;) in the end you have up to 6 Melee Skills, that you can Spam every few seconds, but you have to be very careful if people fight you from many sides. you did see that i was killed from behind ;)

But yes, take care, block some attacks here and there, and mash around. thats it. (but its actually fan. as i mentioned earlier, it feels like Assasins Creed. ^^)

@Weapon hiding: Awesome Staff i have there, huh xD? you can put the weapons back to their sheath or onto your back, but if you want to completely hide them, you have to unequip 'em.

@Targeting: The System always targets the enemy next to you (if they are in front of you) so yes, a bit annoying sometimes, but nothing crittical.

@dying:

Yes, on another, very Popular german Board, i am active as a Mod. And one of the users did envy me so much that he said i should die. sadly, i want to keep living, so all that i could do was to die ingame :D

Aaaand:

Videotime!

I'd say this game looks _really_ good. Can't wait to play it on PS3/PC.

It's hard to tell, but did you suffer any performance problems during that video. I find it hard to notice when I'm not playing it.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Thanks for the reply. And awesome vids. The game looks gorgeous. I see you click on a stone and get engulfed in this blue energy ype-thing.

That heals you?

That looks amazing to me.  What an improvement from TW visually.   My comp is weak so I have settings dialed down a bit and my internet is barely high-speed but it still looks like a lot of fun.  Southpeak soooo sucks.  I think I'll enjoy it more than Vegas or Fable III.  Thanks again.

i did, the game wasnt really smooth, but not thAt bad either. the only annoying point to me is, you  saw it maybe when i did run in circles, that Motion Blur is.. tooo much.. from time to time. annoying.

 

@Marciosmg:

those Shiny Statues do heal you, and and depending on the Colour, they increase certain Stats.

(Blue for Example is Magic, Green is Precision, Red is Life, and Purple is Strentgh.. i think ^^)

 

edit @ Recon:

it is gorgeus. and when the Sun's shining through Trees, you might even just look at the Screen for a couple of moments.

If those Damn Perfomance Issues werent in Cities (and the Blur), this Game would be easilly rivaling Demon's Souls.  (Yeah, it DOES sound hard, DS is awesome, GOTY 09.. BUT the Online Mode of TW2 kicks ass too! :D ) but sadly, those FPS issues kill some of the Games great Atmosphere.

if i had to give a Score to this Game, i'd go with about 85%. 92% had been easilly possible with some more polishing. IF you Guys from Overseas are getting a more polished Copy in january, i'll import it, and play it again. >3

 

@Thanks-Sayers:

at your service, delivering Material from this Game makes so much fun. :D

 

/Love this Game
