Most of Larian's previous games are part of the ''Divinity'' series, beginning with ''Divine Divinity'' (2002) and ending (for now at least) with ''Divinity: Original Sin'' (2014) and ''Divinity: Original Sin II'' (2017). The latter game has many things in common with ''Baldur's Gate 3'', including the use of "origin characters" who can be chosen as the player character or recruited as companions; physics-based effects like [[surface]]s and [[Dippable|dippable weapons]]; and the ability to talk to most animals. | Most of Larian's previous games are part of the ''Divinity'' series, beginning with ''Divine Divinity'' (2002) and ending (for now at least) with ''Divinity: Original Sin'' (2014) and ''Divinity: Original Sin II'' (2017).
