For many reasons, classic felt far harder than normal difficulty had any right to be.īut the game was fun enough to stick with and I’ve picked up a few helpful hints that are making further progression far easier. Then after a few of these I’d cycle back through the previous encounters to see if my new gear and levels would help me win where I’d failed before.
DOS2 also has several difficulty options so players can adjust on the fly where the challenge needs to be.That being said, I started my first playthrough on Classic (normal) difficulty and I have been having a real rough time of it.Įach encounter felt less like a challenge to beat and more like hitting a wall, finding another encounter, hitting another wall and repeating the process until I found a battle I could actually win. Anyone who has read this site know of my love for Dark Souls. That old school mentality holds true with the difficulty. It is a new take on old school RPGs where variety is king and every little thing can be interacted with to fundamentally change each encounter. Divinity Original Sin 2 is an excellent RPG filled with character, depth and charm.
