I'm just going to say, the game will need a lot of work before it's truly great. While I have enjoyed it enough to where I plan to beat the game, I will say to not play the game yet and instead play another game instead for now until it's fixed. I will edit my review once CD Projekt RED fixes their game but for now, I will redirect you to another game. https://www.gog.com/game/fallout_new_vegas_ultimate_edition
Yep, I went there, it's the Neverwinter Nights 2 of this generation, long, epic, and near-flawless in every way. There's like, hardly anything bad I can say about it, because in the world of games with handholding mechanics such as "FOLLOW THE RED LASER DOT QUEST MARKER LIKE A CAT", self-regenerating health, and cancerous mechanics ruining mainstream video games like loot boxes, Denuvo, pay-to-win/pay-to-skip and everything stupid you can think of, Divinity: Original Sin II unfucks the RPG genre and reminds us why video games are great. There is no handholding, loot boxes, Denuvo, or anything to ruin it, no... DOS2 is a pure experience that remains unraped by the AAA publishers and offers so many things that Fallout 4 doesn't, hell, DOS2 is exactly what Skyrim wishes to be, and Larian is what Bethesda Game Studios wishes to be but unlike BGS, Larian aren't hacks. What does Divinity: Original Sin 2 offer that big-budget games like Skyrim and Fallout 4 don't anymore? -A handholding-free experience. -True roleplaying. -Truly amazing voice actors with the greatest emotions that put Skyrim's seven celebrity voice actors to shame. -A rewarding experience that will leave you wanting more, and making you want to do a second runthrough and then some. -Best of all, a nearly perfect experience that may actually contend for Game of the Decade. -Fun co-op that will either get you screeching at your friends for turning the whole damn town against you and them, or praising them for doing something amazing like teleporting the troll to a pool of lava. -GM mode that brings the tabletop to four computers so you all don't have to travel to one house to draw shit on a table. Now, this game isn't without its flaws as there's no thing as a "perfect game", here are things they could do better, and fix: -Long loading times which last 10-30 minutes -Performance issues, like on a decent PC, I get 15-48fps even on low. -GM should get more features added, like NPC dialogue. Overall, 9.7/10
