    Divinity: Original Sin 2 (PC) | Definitive Edition (PC/PS4/XB1)

    Surprised there's no thread for this game yet. Early Access has been out for a while, the full game comes out on September 14th.



    Played through the EA build a bunch of times, really love this game. Haven't looked forward to an RPG release like this in a long time. Larian's really been putting in the time to making this game work.

    The density of content they've put in is pretty amazing. I've played through the early Fort Joy area 4 or 5 times since the first EA build and I'm still finding new things every now and then watching other people play.

    This run is a pretty good showing of the things you can do with co-op so far, if you don't mind spoilers:

    Have been looking forward to DM mode even more than the single player campaign. Looks like there'll be a lot of fun to be had with it if you can find a good DM

    I could have bought an 11 pull and have 1000 gems left over, but all I got was this silly title.

    I bumped the first Divinity thread when they debut DM mode on Twitch. I think homebrew adventures are going to be selling this game. And I could only imagine people doing Patreons for making campaigns.

    It's a lot more serious in tone than the first game. Both the setting and the characters are much more interesting this time around imo

    I don't think it was bad, I actually liked a lot of elements of it personally. Perhaps people thought it was too simple /shrug

    I really enjoyed the sarcasm and 4th wall breaking. It wasn't trying to be serious and that's what I wanted.

    How much you like the story will depend entirely on how willing you are to just ignore some pretty glaring plot holes in order for them to give you said story. It's maybe slightly above average if you're willing to overlook things, and pretty bad if you're a nitpicker. The game shines much more in terms of character writing and tone (and gameplay mechanics), so I wouldn't worry too much one way or another.
