2022 Beginner's Guide For Divinity Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition

This DOS2 Beginner's Guide has most of the Quality of Life things that you might need to get you going early on in the game. It also has basic but important concepts for your 1st playthrough. The guide was designed to be as less invasive as possible. In the near future there will be other videos with way more advanced tips and guides for Tactician/Honor players.
Thank you Xorn, Strongpass, Jo and people from DOS2 subreddit for a good feedback and ideas.

For the experienced players: Initially I planned to include stuff like AP economy, importance of mobility, skill investments, damage formulas, prebuffs, talents etc. But I've figured that, although these concepts are definitely important and even essential, it would be too confusing for new players to grasp all of this in 1 go. So after trying to get into beginner's shoes, I've decided to split those important concepts into 2 or more videos.
Yes, I could have mentioned that beginners can focus on certain things and completely ignore other things, but please understand that it's their 1st experience. So I'd ask you to refrain yourselves from telling new guys exact steps and tricks on how to make this game trivial and easy. Those type of things of min-maxing would be discussed in the next "Advanced guide". I might be wrong tho. Thank you for your understanding.

Been waiting for this game to go on sale again and it finally did! Been looking for beginner tips for a couple weeks, this is the best one I’ve seen. Straight to the point and explained enough so someone who has never played can understand it. Thank you!

[patrickmillion]

Literally spot on guide, returned to the game since 2018 so nice to have some fresh tips! Cheers!

[omgwtfrofl]

Thank you!

This was nice and straight to its' points. My fav tips video I've seen sofar on this topic

[californiansniper]

Great short guide got hooked after learning all these things, thanks ✌️🧙‍♂️

[lvnnqbr]

This was great! I'm 80h into the game (few restarts) and learned quite a bit. I've been looking for a video exactly like this one fo a while. Please make more videos on Divinity! I'd love a video like this for the first divinity game!

[Shevtali]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! It makes the game much more enjoyable for beginners😊

[lucarich]

11/10 video. Very rational, very down to earth, no wasted time. You earned my sub instantly.

[Nazatur]

Also if you have on the pacing, edit, structure of the video, let me know.

[asamodi]

Amazing video, best beginner guide I’ve watched.

[Antonin]

this is really helpful. Im so used to CC getting applied near the start of battle for control, but having to remove shields before it takes effects changes a lot of strategies

[Max_Charb]

Excellent video. I wish you could/would do one for console UI as on XBox I have no clue how to reproduce most of those quality of life mouse clicks.

I ended up subscribing. I like your humor, you tone and energy.

[bradthomas]

If you can sumon an incarnate, send them off to start a fight for you. Take the guys your fighting out of there element and save your action points untill they come to you

[invokevoid]

Very good yap; not even playing Div 2 but still was a nice watch.

[kasparpantzare]

Quick easy fun thank you for the helpful tips : )

[AlyKatIvy]

The random unproved jab at lasagna earned my like and subscribe 😂

[AboveAverageNPC]

Dude, can't thank you enough for this

[Pullo]

this video probably just saved me from quitting this game in act 1. i'm totally new to this particular kind of RPG and feel much less overwhelmed now. thanks!

[psmter]

Good info. I have to start again. It was tricky to get used to the gameplay. Sudden fights out of nowhere. And then it says "you don't seem to be doing well, try fleeing" but then you can't cause the enemys are right there 🤷‍♂️
