Just reached Act 3 in DOS2. It really is a reaction to every criticism about DOS1.
The armor system? It was so that you can't simply CC everyone on your first turn.
The round robin-like combat that turned Wits kind of useless except for crits? It's so you can't make all your party members kill everything on your turn.
The dark edgy story? It's because everyone said that 1's story was too whimsical.Like, fuck, man. We had a bit of sad stories in DOS1, but 2 really did some shit like lobotomized dogs and humans, cleansing the people of source by force, concentration camps, making deals with demons, etc.
