I love having roleplayed my way into putting a stupid fucked up love triangle into a game that didn't have one
#Ash and I are playing DOS2#and we have generated#a situation#me not knowing what's going to happen: I don't really connect with any of these guys maybe I try to romance the other PC#Ash: hell yeah what if I made this situation interminably messy and refused to clean it up?#anyway the Fane/Lohse Lohse/Sebille drama is mounting and we're kind of wishing there was a way for the NPC in this situation to react to it#anyway DOS2 good game#love Ifan#also love watching how it plots out its bespoke character interactions#we're doing a big party run so we get to see everyone but it's neat how it's set up important encounters to hook multiple guys#so if in a normal run you don't have one of them another of them will get you invested#also interesting how much DOS2 seems to want and expect you to play an origin character#compared to BG3 where custom was default#Ash is playing Lohse and I'm playing Fane and Ive been very impressed with my bespoke interactions#it is kinda weird that only the character you are inhabiting at the moment gets banter#like banter between multiple characters EXISTS but you only see it when both characters are actively being played by the player#weird system#wonder if there's a mod for that#if it exists I recommend using it.#we're#if I had to guess halfway through the final act?#so both the actual plot and our player generated subplot are going to have to come to a head pretty imminently#and I would comment more but the things that I'm thinking about in relation to the game are giant spoilers right now#I guess my unrelated comment is that it's interesting thinking Kaijja was mostly monogamous and then feeling what a character#ACTUALLY being monogamous feels like. Kaijja isn't monogamous she's just more than I am. Fane as experienced by me is actually there. It is.#Very different feeling as a set of emotions.#And I finally kinda feel like I get it. As a function of something other than fear. Couldn't be me but I get it.#So that's been interesting.#Anyway this has been my comments on. A video game? A roleplaying experience? One of thems.#divinity original sin 2

if you don't mind, which companions do you like taking with you the most in dos2 apart from Ifan, and what classes/abilities do you prefer giving them? 😊
Hahaha, I guess it’s too obvious my favouritism for Ifan.
Yeah, Ifan in my group of companions is a must. Not only because he is super tender and tragic at the same time, but also because as a Wayfarer he is truly a “God”woken. His wild range and the crazy damage he does is so unbelievable. He was always the last man standing in my play-through, and tended to one-shot enemies. Adramalik was so wonderfully destroyed by him. My Wizard only had to heal him XD.
Apart from Ifan, I liked to have Sebille, Lohse or Fane. Of course, one of the three had to be left behind at some point in the game. I used them with their default  abilities. Sebille as Rogue, Lohse as Enchanter [quite weak in my play-through, so sometimes I played her as Fighter, being the tank of the group. Which is a problem when you fight against Adramalik, haha], and Fane as a Wizard. Because my OC was also Wizard, I focused Fane on Fire-Earth damage [soooo many explosions and fire everywhere, everyone burnt to ashes, while Ifan leaped high up over the fight scene and from above he killed everything XD].
My Wizard Sandor was always focused in water-air spells, with a bit of fire [because he did want to make things boom too xD]. So… Fane=Wizard destruction, Sandor=Wizard healing.
