Is Avowed a prequel to Pillars of Eternity?

No, Avowed is not a direct prequel; it's a spin-off set in the same world (Eora) as Pillars of Eternity, taking place a few years after Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire, but offers a new story and gameplay (first-person RPG) so players don't need to play the others, though fans will find connections. It acts as a fresh entry into the shared universe, bridging the gap between the original isometric RPGs and a new, broader narrative.

Is Baldur's Gate 3 harder than Divinity 2?

Yes, Divinity: Original Sin 2 (DOS2) is generally considered harder than Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3), especially early on and on higher difficulties, due to its complex elemental interactions, unique armor system (physical vs. magic), and more punishing mechanics where enemy attacks can quickly down characters if not properly managed. While BG3 has its own challenging encounters, particularly in Honor Mode, DOS2 demands deeper strategic understanding and constant gear upgrades to avoid being overwhelmed.
