The aforementioned slight impact on our reputation for taking out those guards and subsequently taking out some rather high ranking magisters was they started to engage Fane and company in battle on sight in Fort Joy, which is brought up to illustrate how player choices impact the game's environment. Had Fane not decided to slay about a dozen magisters they probably would have remained peaceful to us, but that is part of the appeal of Divinity: Original Sin II. A player doesn't have to be a homi...

Origin characters are ready-made characters that have their own base personality and backstory. These characters include Beast, a dwarf who led a failed rebellion against the queen, Fane, an undead human who woke up with the world he knew long gone, Ifan ben-Mezd, a human who was a crusader who lost his faith and has become a Lone Wolf mercenary, Lohse, a star chanteuse whose body is now host to a mysterious entity who makes its presence known at inopportune times, The Red Prince, sneak a peek a...

Things are a little bit different this time around. For starters, the Divinity: Original Sin **** II takes place over 1,000 years after the events of the original. The Divine is no more, and the Void is ever expanding and will consume the world if allowed to grow unchallenged. In addition to the great time gap between the two games, the role of the player in relation to the magical force known as Source has been completely flipped. No more are we engaged in a witch hunt but instead we step into ...

Environment will play a more significant role this time around. Height does factor into battle strategy, making the decision to initiate battle from a cliff overlooking your enemies or from a rooftop an advantageous decision, though be warned the battlefield position benefits do work both ways. Areas of the battlefield can receive a blessing or curse, effecting all who enter the area. The ground may be frozen, energized, or set ablaze, making a path to an enemy or ally inaccessible without susta...

Original Sin II is an isometric PC RPG that plays beautifully with mouse and keyboard but also offers full controller support. Perhaps this was a result of how well the controller worked for Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition on console or maybe just a preemptive move with plans for this to go to console, but either choice for control input works well. The music is beautifully composed and accompanies this fantasy setting splendidly, along with the impressive voice acting, and having this t...

The die has been cast and we're getting Baldur's Gate 3 this year or the next, whether Early Access or the first game. A few weeks ago developer Larian Studios has already shown what the game will look like and needless to say, they rolled a success on that PAX East 2020 presentation. Fans of their previous games, however, won't help but notice a certain likeness to Larian's most recent RPG, Divinity : Original Sin 2 . There were even those that worry Baldur's Gate 3 feeling more like Divini...

If you too have been bitten by the Divinity: Original Sin II bug and can't seem to stop playing the game, you know how important armor is. Although old armor quickly becomes obsolete as you progress in your levels and the storyline itself, there are a few pretty interesting and strong unique pieces you can find throughout the game to aid you in your journey. While it's true that the best is found in Arx when your story is about to reach its closure, the Nameless Isle, Reaper's Coast and Fort J...
