I've almost bought DIvinity Original Sin a couple of times, is it any good?

I prefer D:OS 1s story and played-through world to D:OS 2's, but D:OS 2 has a lot more polish. Both are excellent games and worth your time.

If you like bg3 and that style of game, definitely worth it

Dos2 is really really good, if you like Larian games

[–] Th3D3k0y 3 points 1 year ago

I like Larian games they finish... Looking at your Tyranny!

It's slow like a TTRPG. If you liked Baldur's Gate then you will like Divinity.

If one is too slow for you then you won't like the other.

I personally can't stand either but I'm not a TTRPG fan.

I have a hankering to go back to it regularly and I'm playing on the Switch so it is less smooth, but yes I am a forever fan of Larian Studioes after experiencing just a tithe of DOS:2. Hard to explain why it is so good, but the mechanics are creative, fun, and challenging. The story is epic and actually epic in scope and the characters are all so fleshed out and the voice acting is professionally done and immaculate. It is very open ended and very long but very very good.
