The BioWare vibes are exactly why I’m loving this game so much. Larian was never in my radar before, because I just can’t get into isometric games for some reason, but they definitely are now. Whatever they put out next, I’m probably going to get.
I didn't even know who Larian was before BG3 blew up lol, I can't get into isometric either nor turn-based combat, I'm mainly a MMORPG player, but when I saw reviews for this game and AAA devs shitting on it I decided to buy it and give it an honest try.
I fell in love with it immediately, still struggling a bit with mechanics but I'm learning :D
You might like Divinity 2: OS even more than DnD based combat, which is a bit...crunchy around the edges.
Playing BG3 has definitely made me curious about their other games and I’ll have to give them a shot
You’ve got probably a decade before their next big title so settle in for the wait lol
I’m a Dragon Age fan. I’m used to decade long waits by now.
Just a heads up, the game isn't isometric. It's top down. Isometric is flat, not 3d. It's viewed from a corner angle only usually and uses parallel projection (the view is rendered onto a plane where all lines of sight are parallel).
