    worst turn-based rpg I've played. from this cringe dialogue, expensive AP costs to the boring story, this game is significantly worse than the sequel that I have completed this year. not only is this overrated from opencritic's 88% and metacritic's 95% aggregate scores, I would say this is not even good. this game is just straight-up trash. you begin the story in the tutorial cave, andworst turn-based rpg I've played. from this cringe dialogue, expensive AP costs to the boring story, this game is significantly worse than the sequel that I have completed this year. not only is this overrated from opencritic's 88% and metacritic's 95% aggregate scores, I would say this is not even good. this game is just straight-up trash. you begin the story in the tutorial cave, and then spend hours in a city doing tedious chores and engaging in boring conversations with characters with extremely exaggerated medieval acting. so exaggerating that it feels cringe and painful to listen to.

    Very good game, with deep mechanics and a good freedom concept with scenery interactions.
    It lacks of a better history and deeper characters, also the items are not special, you always discard the old ones for the newer.
    Tactical turn-based combats are hard and tactically good with plenty of options, but tend to became boring.

    Already one of the greatest RPG games of all time, the new enhanced edition of Divinity: Original Sin improves the game on so many levels that it touches a level of almost absolute perfection.

    Larian Studios has taken an already brilliant game and made it better. Original Sin Enhanced Edition is borderline perfect. [Dec 2015, p.59]

    Enhanced Edition brings a breath of fresh air into the Original Sin experience in a great way.
