Divine Divinity

First, a HUGE TY to GOG for bringing such a great game to your site for us to enjoy again! Second, shame on you GOG for posting the incorrect OS X system requirements! This game works fine running under Apple OS X 10.6.8. No need to write a review. This game is seriously awesome and is unlike most RPG games you have played. As one reviewer said, it is much like an isometric (view) version of an Elder Scrolls game due to it massive open world environments and do anything anywhere approach! I enthusiastically recommend this game to all cRPG fans! Divine Divinity is quite an experience! Here are my system specs: Apple 15" PowerBook Pro, Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66 GHz, 4 MB system RAM, NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT with 256MB dedicated video RAM, running OS X version 10.6.8 (10K549), HSF+ Extended file system. TY again GOG!!!

Awesome classic cRPG game.

And fans of both those games and the rest of the divinity series should by this ASAP, even if you hate Diablo, Borderlands, Torchlight and Titan Quest (you know who you are) you should give this a try. From the outset the Conan like high fantasy mixed with deep mist and lighting grabed me and didn't let go. Despite coming out in 2002 the hand drawn style of it's visuals are very easy on the eyes even now 10 years later. As for the gameplay, if uv'e played a one Diablo clone uv'e played them all, except this. The depth in the game far exeeds the rest of the genre, the loot (although more sparce) is quite satisfying, the element (or illushion) of choice even comes into play at times and the robust interactivity with the enviornment makes for some good old puzzle solving which is often absent in Diablo clones. But why 4 stars not 5? Well I've encountered several bugs with the save system as it claims to constantly coruppt (note the game didn't work on my desktop WIN7 but worked on my laptop WINXP, aparently it dosent instal correctly with certain knew graphics cards). Also repairing can ocasualy cause the user interface to disapear causeing a reload. But I've sufferd through worse in terms of rough edges (yes Fallout new vegas, Skyrim, Seven kingdoms 2 and tTwo worlds 2 I mean you) and the good heavely out ways the bad. Also note the score in the this game is to die for as it has a hauntingly calim vibe for it's beutiful out door areas and inviting melodys for dungeons. Unfortunetly the localized voice acting is AWFUL! I sure hope your fluent in En-grisq because thats all the npcs speak. It's a shame there aren't any other language tracks avalable like in the Witcher 2 so one dosen't have to suffer what sounds like a level 35 shamen trying to pertray Piece Blosum from mid summer nights dream after getting kicked in the crouch. Also note there isn't much in the way of mod support or multi player :( which is a shame considering game like and including Diablo often benifit from it. But none the less this game (along with Divinity 2 the dragon knight saga) has introduced me to a new series of wonderful Action RPGs (other games include Beyond divinity and the pending Divinity origional sin).

Have everyone same problems?

I am not sure how I would have perceived this game years ago at it's release date, but today there are much better RPGs to compare it to. PROS - The graphics are okay. Soundtrack is quite good. Combat is a little bit of a challenge. A storyline is not lacking. Ability to interact with many objects is neat. Open world feel. Good skill system. CONS - No autosave means replaying large chunks of the game. Difficult to figure out what I am supposed to do. Lack of merchants to sell all my loot. Sorry monsters and not enough of them. All in all, Divine Divinity is somewhere between Diablo 1 and Diablo 2 in terms of quality.
