I enjoy Divinity 2 much more. Much better story, you never feel like you just cleaning a location from mobs for no reason, much better companions, awesome dialogs, non-linearity, awesome origin stories, awesome usage of the scripts.I really enjoy that they nerfed the crowd control system.

Now no more random deaths on Hardcore mode because 10% stun suddenly worked on you 3 times in a row. And you always know when your CC will work.

You can't just focus the same enemy by the whole team as before, you have to pick your target wisely. With these and the addition of the attack-from-above system, the battles became really tactical. Oh, and shield warriors from useless became a really great archetype.I just love how they updated skill-stats system. Now you can't just put all your attributes into intelligence and be cool. Most of the characters will require you to invest in at least half of them. Memory is just awesome addition to the parameters, so no more 1 level all skills exploit.And don't forget about GM mode and the level editor.

They're great tools.Where the first game is better is the difficulty. When CC works not by random chances but by tactical decisions, the flaws of AI are much more noticeable. Even on the hardcore difficulty the game rarely gives you much of a challenge, by moving instead of attacking and ignoring the opportunity attacks. So the first game was harder from my point of view. Hope developers will add some additional difficulty soon. Originally posted by:So. If you were new to this game series (like me) and were only going to buy one of them (for now).

The 'LCL Plant' in Terminal Dogma is actually an entire lake formed from the blood of Lilith.LCL shares similar properties with the hypothetical 'primordial ooze' from which life on Earth first evolved. Primordial ooze. This is because non-Angel life on Earth actually originally evolved from the LCL spread by Lilith when she landed on Earth. Case in point, Toji and Kensuke, wearing neither plug suits nor interface headsets, manage to induce interference in when they enter the entry plug.It is stated several times in the series that LCL smells 'like blood'. LCL is, in fact, the blood of the Second Angel, which is restrained in the deepest level of NERV HQ, '.

Which would it be?Like RPG, Story.Since they aren't directly connected in Story (they play at different points in time) there isn't really any reason to go with the first game. I'd get the new one, since it has a more interesting start of the story and thus has a better chance of pulling you into playing more than the first one. I tried to get a friend to play the 1st with me (I already had it through), but he got bored too quickly at the start and dropped it.
