I would like to say that I wasn't a big fan of Original. The first game had boring and or slow pace storytelling. Quest tracker for Original Sin was non-exiting and the party members were forgettable, to say the least. However, Original Sin 2 was much better in my book. Yes, the quest tracker was awful, but it was easy to follow. So let’s get down with this review of Divinity Original Sin 2. Pros: Plotline: The storytelling is more engaging and fresh to play with. I never felt bored or tired of the plot of Original Sin 2. The story was dark and mature, but it has good humor from the supporting cast that it feels natural to listen to. All of the party members have their own agenda to reach said goal in the game. So it’s was important to talk and be nice to your crew. You never know when you might need in the end. The world is alive: The actions and moves you take the world of Divinity Original Sin 2 will be remembered in some way of fashion. From the people of Fort Joy, all the way to Arx will treat you differently on how you act. So don’t take the world in Original Sin 2 for granite. Free Range Customization: From the moment you start the game. The game gives you a full range of how you want to play the game. If you want to be a tank with a side of magic you can do that, if you want to be a Wizard, scoundrel or maybe both you can do that. There isn’t class built, but the freedom to do what you want to do how you want to play it again simple as that. Combat, Persuasion and other paths: In the game, combat is more flushed out and more Innovative than the first game of Original Sin but this time around the choices that you want to do in combat it does matter, before and or after combat. Lockpicking persuasion trading with characters and for their on gameplay mechanics holds Value to what you do in the game alongside comment. Cons: The Music Forgettable: I didn't care too much for the music in Divinity original sin 2. I kind of felt it was distracting from the game itself or the story because. There will be times where the music would overlap and or cover up the dialogue in the game. Yes, I did turn down the volume for the music but it does linger in at times. When that happens. The player is taking out of the game’s plot. Roughly 80% of Side Quest is Boring and Pointless: For the majority of the side quests in Original Sin, 2 are either boring, pointless, and downright both. The first act in the game didn’t have this problem but in the second third and fourth act, the problem is very clear and annoying. For example, you are looking for eggs for a mother hen and that has no bearing on the main story arc or pretty much it's not fun. Another example is when you reach a very complex Puzzle in 4th act.That's like a tip of the iceberg on how bad the side quest missions become because these puzzles are all connected to a 4 part long floor puzzle. This is where the side quest mission is now part of the main quest. It's like it's just more point is b******* if you had to go through just to get to point A to point B. The game isn't really good at mini puzzles attached to a quest. This is where the game becomes boring or pacing becomes a sloth-like speed. If the sidequest mission isn’t dealing with the party members, your character, or something to do with the main story. It’s a pointless journey for the player. The Ending Underwhelming: This might be a nip trick or the exhaustion of doing all those floor puzzles to get to the main meat of the game and the ending. However, The ending didn't feel satisfying to me because. The ending will give you some little glimpses of here and there, what you did in this section but nothing else. The party members are given a long, but short paragraph after endgame. All those choices and moral choices you did in the game didn’t matter in the end. Overall: I love the game and I’ll go back to play it again. Is Original Sin 2 the next Witcher 3, Persona 5, and Ys VIII in this age of RPG? No, but it’s damn near close to it. So my ranting for the game is Badass Son. Original sin 2 excels in character customization is awesome, epic party members, World building is great. However, the game does fall flat at the ending and the side quest and music department.
