    Look, I think divinity fans need to realize something here. This game's exp system is completely, utterly shot. A game where using persuasion gives you 0 exp and massacre gives you millions is an embarrassment. If you ever search "best solution to X quest" for something in this game, the answer is always kill everyone. You will only ever be rewarded for murder. You will get nothing forLook, I think divinity fans need to realize something here. This game's exp system is completely, utterly shot. A game where using persuasion gives you 0 exp and massacre gives you millions is an embarrassment. If you ever search "best solution to X quest" for something in this game, the answer is always kill everyone. You will only ever be rewarded for murder. You will get nothing for peaceful resolution.

    There's a number of other issues too, interminable load times, nonsensical difficulty spikes, insufficient difficulty scaling (should be something between classic-explorer), poor character writing (every story character plays like a piss poor skin), terrible economy, limited resurrection when it's very easy to lose characters, unbalanced combat (corpse explosion is the meta and that's it), the "make a huge chest and drop it" thing, but those just reflect Larian's lack of skill. The exp thing reflects Larian's lack of a brain.    … Expand

    I cannot play this. Object interaction is a nightmare. Inventory system seems to be of a 1990s game. Controls are clunky. Camera management and movement are so slow. All of these make the pacing of the game unbearable.

    And something should be done with the propagation of cannibalism and necrophilia.

    One of the worst games I ever played, music is passable at best, graphics is generic, camera is awful, characters are clowns, story is irrelevant. Go play Baldur's Gate instead.

    Original Sin 2 is one the best games in the recent years, and one of the most complete RPGs of all time, period. Everything a hardcore RPG fan would want from a game is on offer here, and you can barely find another title that mixes the classic table-top Role Playing elements with digital media so ingeniously. Not only for RPG fans, but for everybody else, Original Sin 2 is one of the best choices of 2018.

    Divinity: Original Sin II Definitive Edition is so complex that I think everyone will find something to like, whether it’s combat or an exciting story. The best thing I can say about it is that if I’m asked what I liked about it, I can’t pinpoint something. It’s the complete experience and the feeling of joy that it left behind.

    Divinity: Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition is probably one of the best old-school RPGs you can find on console, a true masterpiece. The PC's version was almost perfect, this one follows the same path. Definitive Edition adds a new tutorial, new game mode (Story Mode) and a rework of Act III for the main campaign and it's great.
