Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition

I had bought this on GOG a couple years ago and had intended on getting back to it, it has taken me a few hours to wrap my head around what this game actually is as I was trying to complete all the quest for the first main area Fort Joy, but after watching Divinity: Original Sin 2 is an RPG Lover’s Dream by Ghostcharm it’s clicked and I am trying to be more open to not winning every situation as if it was a more genuine adventure.

With a 93/100 on OpenCritic for the original release, PCGamer had this to say;

Playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 is uncannily like playing a tabletop RPG. The way that Larian’s sequel embraces player creativity immediately conjures up memories of days spent sitting around a table, asking the Dungeon Master if I can attempt the last stupid idea that floated into my head. And like a good DM, Original Sin 2 usually answers that question with “Yes, you can attempt it.”

My only regret is that I got it on GOG as it was cheaper, which has made mods less friendly without the Steam Workshop, but it was a lot cheaper at the time and hasn’t gone below $15.74 on Steam since.

    Should I go back and play the first divinity: original sin? Have it on steam and didn’t really play it much the first time.

      You don’t have to from a story perspective. There are some quality of life things that 2 has, but they’re both really great games.

      Are you talking about Divine Divnity or Divinity: Original Sin?

      Divinity: Original Sin is very close to D:OS2 in terms of gameplay. The only thing I found frustrating was inventory management.

        Oh oops, yes I meant divinity original sin. They do have an enhanced edition already showing up in my steam library with some improvements so I might give that a try.
