You guys are true masters of the turn based RPG. You'd be a perfect fit for Ultima!

This may not exactly be kosher for an AMA question, but we're an indie studio working on an online card game and our weather system and several of our card interactions are heavily inspired by the combat interactions in Divinity: Original Sin, which we found to be VERY fun.

How did you guys come up with your combat system? What was the inspiration for it the status/weather interactions?

Whoa, I had no idea one of the DoC designers is working for Larian now! DoC is also one of our inspirations :)

Completely understandable!
