“Reading the reddit threads, I would like to clear up something,” Vincke said. “WOTC is not to blame for us taking a different direction. On the contrary, they really did their best and have been a great licensor for us, letting us do our thing. This is because it's what's best for Larian.”

It is primarily the combat system I'm talking about though. I would've loved to see BDIII but with DOS general combat and combat movement. I don't care for the "does 1d4 lightning damage" stuff.

I'm obviously not saying that DOSII had the better dialogue and quest systems. BGIII is obviously rooted in the same engine and tech as DOSII, but it's been built upon wonderfully. I enjoy BGIII, and Larian has once again done an excellent job. I just think DOSII was the better game on a mechanical level, disregarding the story/graphics/tech, etc.

Oh I agree with you there. Combat was more fun in DOS2 (though it got ridiculous at times).
