Still thinking about it

I've been waiting since the likes of Planescape Torment and Baldurs Gate 2 for a game to match their sheer perfection, many games came quite close, but Divinity Original Sin just manages to hit so many nails on the head its not funny. It looks great and still plays fine on my aging PC, it has a great storyline, it's two protagonists have some great interactions and dialogue. The voice acting is spot on and it has the most sublime OST. The combat is turn-based but do not let this put you off, there are so many choices in combat with the interaction of spells with each other and the environment, that the game just begs you to experiment with different tactics. This game just oozes pure class, it was a labour of love for Larian and it shows in every tiny detail of the game. If you like RPG games (or even just pure quality games), you need to play this game, it is the benchmark I will use in comparing other games in future. Well done Larian.

100% worth

100% worth. Don't look at guides and don't worry about 100%ing the game. Go into this blind and if possible bring a friend. You'll like this if you like Banner Saga, XCOM, Dragon Age, or Front Mission. You'll hate this if you expect it to be: Diablo 2, Titan Quest, POE.
