Truly a Masterpiece

Still my favorite Larian game, none of their later games managed to recreate its unigue charm and atmosphere. Great writing, music, fun voice acting, surprisingly highly interactive environment for isometric game. Unusual combination of proper deep RPG mechanics and fast diablo-like combat with a combat pause. Game is very generous and gives you a lot of freedom - you are not restricted to skills of one class, lots of valuable loot and great dialogue everywhere you go, nothing feels like a grind. Besides that, it's hilariously unbalanced - not all skills are equally useful, which somehow makes it more satisfying when you figure out where to put your points into, like your decisions actually matter. Some games are too obsessed with balance and forget to be fun, this is not one of them. You need to change from direct 3D to software rendering mode for game to run smoothly, for some reason it's not a default setting. Some negative reviews seems to be caused by that.

An Overlooked Classic

Released only a couple of years after Diablo 2, Divinity seems like a more natural evolution of that franchise than Blizzard's own effort. It takes the core of action RPG exploration and looting, and expands it into a sweeping overworld with copious NPCs and intriguing quests. It's an easy pick for anyone who wanted Diablo to be deeper and have more story. Unfortunately, the dialogue is weakly written and tone-deaf, and a host of bugs, breakable quests, and general unfairnesses make it frustrating it ways it shouldn't have to be. All this stops it from being the top-tier game it could have been. It's still worthy of recommendation and I'm honestly baffled as to why it isn't discussed more frequently in the evolution of PC roleplaying. Four stars.

Great until broken quest lines

Like the title suggests, I really enjoyed this game except for a few things. Coming from point and click adventures and the original Diablo, this game is all of that mixed up. Good storyline's, suprises and gameplay despite some frequent crashing bugs. BUT- the worst part is finding out you can go no further because an NPC/Quest line just isn't working, and although their are some complicated (for me) workarounds messing with game and save files, I just decided to delete the game and consider it fun for the time I had with it. I'm not the type to replay hours and hours of the same old grinding experience to try and beat the odds on a random quest bug. So that's that.

Like TES, I will call it TES1)

This is a predecessor of all popular ARPG) It seems very much like TES, but it 2D and years earlier)) And it is not like Diablo (only some similarities exists, like attribute system). So it is more on TES side. When my computer was not suitable for Oblivion, I played this. And found very entertaining. Only one thing missed - mana regen(

Divine roleplaying

Hands down the best ARPG i've ever played. A truly amazing and immersive world makes Divine Divinity more in league with all-time crpg classics like Ultima than its ARPG brethren. Total customization in every department and a design ethos typical from the eastern european scene, a solid ten out of ten.
