Hooray! I was holding off on replaying because I kept hoping for some DLC and/or improvements to the base game, but I'm looking forward to playing again in August.

I'm hoping this game goes on sale during Steam's summer sale - more than what I've seen discounted so far, anyway.

Recommend buying on gog. They also do sales promotions.
Anyway, those changes to act 3 are a welcomed addition.

Question about the gog version (I own this type), does it get updated as well or is this, we'll update the gog version when 'we' remember it. I've heard it happens ... a lot. Knowing the internet though, anyone got a second opinion on the matter?

Yes it is updated without trouble. I reiterate, if there is a option between GOG and Steam go for the former.

I am so getting this game.
I've been on an RPG high lately and I can't get enough of them. Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire has really made me want to play as many RPGs as possible. I might even play Detroit: Become Human. Yeah, I know the last one isn't an RPG, but it has decision-making, which is good enough for me. So I'm definitely getting this game. Do I have to play the first one though? Do decisions I make in Divinity: Original Sin carry over to Divinity: Original Sin 2? I just thought I'd get that question out of the way before I start playing this game.
Lastly, are there any other RPGs coming out that are "under the radar," like that Pathfinder: Kingmaker game coming out later this year?

As for your question: Do you have to play the first game? I'd say no. The second game isn't really a sequel. Though, it occurs in the same universe and has references to the lore from other games. I *think* that the lore is explained enough in game to sufficiently stand on its own power, and not require outside materials. Just play this one, and if you *really* like the universe check out the others. Mechanically the recent game is above and beyond anything they released before, and it's going to get an enhanced edition at some point. (which I think might be free for owners of the regular edition, but I don't know for sure) And that's all I needed to read. Anyway, I might get to it after I'm done with Tyranny.

I believe D:OS2 is set over a thousand years after the first one. So aside from getting some historical context, you don't really need to play the first game to understand the second.

If previous game is any indication, it should be a major improvement. Eh. From what I have played so far it's good but not amazing. Admittedly I am really early in it though and have no time to really play extensively due to E3. I love the character customization but I feel like I need my old school spreadsheet days to track skills and tags and powers and all that. Its detailed but a bit obtuse. Getting used to gameplay controls but I am enjoying the bits of camp i've seen thus far.

Kind of this, yeah. Not necessarily a bad thing, but not something I really want to do with a non-tabletop RPG.

My suggestion, and this is purely based on my experience with the previous game, is that it is so much more fun to play it with a friend! So if you know someone who might be interested in that kind of game you can convince them to try and together you will probably have a lot of fun.

Nothing else on your radar for the meantime? Not really, I mean I have a lot of games I can play, I just don't feel like playing them. Ugh, I sound so spoiled right now! I guess I'm mostly about upset because I'm going to play with a friend, and he goes abroad for a couple of weeks early September so I won't really be able to play in practice until the end of that month...

Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition will be completely free to everyone who owns Original Sin 2! Without the support of everyone who bought the game already, and without all the feedback we’ve received from you, we couldn’t have made this new and improved edition of Divinity: Original Sin 2. As a little "thank you" to you all, we’re ensuring you'll get to enjoy all of the improvements without spending a cent more! Because we know some of our will want to still play the original version, both versions will remain available on PC and you'll be able to select which one you want to play.
We don't have the space (and you don't have the time) to go into detail about each of the changes coming to the Definitive Edition, but here are some of the broad strokes you can look forward to:
Narrative We received some criticism on the last part of the game and so we took that to heart. We had a long look at how we could improve it and came up with quite a list.
Almost 150k words of text have been changed and we've recorded over 130k new words, fixing some voices and text that weren't quite perfect in the original game. We've created new situations and dialogues to give you a greater sense of reactivity across the world, and have bumped up our use of the tag system across most conversations. Finally, we’ve worked on the personal journeys of the origin characters, polishing their quests and situations to better communicate how your decisions impact their story.
Tutorial Our adventures at PAX showed us that we were giving our players a lot to learn in a very short space of time. To address this, we’ve added a brand new deck at the beginning of the game with its own characters and gameplay and we've worked on the tutorial messaging.
Combat Combat is an integral part of your adventure in Divinity: Original Sin 2, so we’ve worked on rebalancing some of the fights in the game to make the challenge curve flow better and avoid harsher spikes of difficulty. The overall experience will now be smoother and make you feel like your experience in earlier fights has prepared you for what comes later, while still offering you new challenges. We’ve also added some brand new fights (be careful of Edouard's surprise in Kemm's garden) as well as reworking the Kraken in the Harbour scene. Because we all want to see a showdown with that big, tentacled bully!
Story Mode If combat is not so much your thing, you can try Story mode. This is a new mode designed for players who want to focus on the dialogue, reactivity and atmosphere in Original Sin 2. It's a more casual difficulty mode that's easier than the existing Explorer mode. You'll be able to switch between Story, Explorer or Classic modes throughout the game, so you can adjust it as you go if you feel a specific battle is too difficult or too easy.
Balance Here are some specific balance changes you can expect to see in the Definitive Edition:
Economy changes - We’ve updated the prices of many items in the game. Unique items were usually too valuable, while armor prices now better reflect their utility in combat and the cost won’t vary so heavily. We slightly reduced the damage on some of the three Source point skills. (Skills like Arrow Storm and Meteor Shower will still be super cool, but not an 'I win' button.) Totems will now gain intelligence as they grow in levels. This will help their damage output scale better towards the end game. Lone Wolf abilities and attributes will now be capped at the normal cap levels. Currently, Lone Wolves can increase their abilities and attributes past the soft caps of 40 and 10 respectively. In Definitive Edition, this will no longer be possible - you will only be able to double your points to the cap and not beyond. The Torturer talent will allow you to apply status effects through magic or physical armor. The difficulty of persuasion encounters across Arx have changed. Most of these encounters were unproportionally hard compared to the result. We buffed some underused skills. Petrifying Touch, Sucker Punch, and Infect are getting increased damage. Mosquito Swarm will have a shorter cooldown and and Door to Eternity will last longer. AI will be more likely to attack players with Damage Reduction abilities. These abilities usually resulted in the AI avoiding you rather than ever doing damage to the AI. High quality wands will create surfaces.
Performance Working on a console version of Original Sin 2 has allowed the team to strengthen the Divinity engine and improve performance for the Definitive Edition.
We’ve changed our physics engine and new tools have been developed to help test the optimisation of the game. This includes a tool that uses a character model to go through the world of Original Sin 2 line by line, checking for memory usage and fps issues. Since Fane is the character model used by the tool, our Technical Director has started to call him the “Safekeeper of Performance”! (A title Fane doesn't understand, but wholeheartedly accepts.)
Music Not to be outdone, Bobby and the team have been hard at work on changes for the Definitive Edition too. Origin theme music will play in new parts of the game, so if you’re the Red Prince (for example), you will hear your personal musical theme while on the Lady Vengeance and that theme will develop as you progress through the game! Bobby's team also made plenty of improvements and changes to complement the new writing and rework of Arx too. Don’t forget that the Soundtrack is available in a limited run on 180 gram Vinyl!
Sir Lora, the Squirrel Knight Of course, not everything in the Definitive Edition is an improvement. There are rumours that an apocalyptic cult of squirrels, the Knights of Drey, are trying to bring about the end of the world by summoning the Great Acorn, which will be the doom of all tall peoples! (Yes, even dwarves.) At least, that's what we've been told by Sir Lora, the Squirrel Knight. The coming of the Acorn was foreshadowed in the original version of Divinity: Original Sin 2 and now it appears to be imminent. Sir Lora arrives with his own small story arc, and will be a mini companion you can recruit in your game. He's there as a pre-order bonus for Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition, but if you own Original Sin 2 on PC before the launch of the Definitive Edition, then you will receive Sir Lora for free as soon as the Definitive Edition goes live!
And much more! In addition to all the smaller changes not listed here, we have done some significant work on the UI and Journal for the Definitive Edition. The Journal in particular has been no small task, as we’ve completely overhauled the system and re-written huge parts of it to help guide players.
Console differences We didn't make any significant graphical, UI, gameplay or story changes for the PS4 or Xbox One but the one thing we didn't manage to port to console is the Game Master mode. This will come as a disappointment to some of you but will probably be no surprise to those who've played with it. The number of menus present in Game Master mode and the speed with which a GM needs to be react to the antics of a party made it impossible to make a port that would be fun to play with. All other online modes are available however and playing in split-screen with two controllers is a blast! We've also included a new hot-seat arena mode which is loads of fun!

A bit bummed we won't get the GM mode for console, but I understand it was too hard to implement. Just a bit over two months until I'll have it in my hands...
