Re: Divinity: Original Sin

I havepc version and even though I'll get the enhanced version free.. I'm still grabbing on ps4. I don't do much pc gaming anymore. Will get back into it eventually I hope but who knows.

Re: Divinity: Original Sin

The enhanced edition is simply a masterpiece. The game is improved in all aspects.
Let's see if that one will sell on consoles. I doubt it though. Wasteland 2 console sales are a disaster unfortunately.

Re: Divinity: Original Sin

Yeah I really hope it sells well. Disappointing wasteland didnt...
That just leads to more cookie cutter shooters etc...
Just picked my copy up. Off work until Thursday. .

Re: Divinity: Original Sin

Hey guys,
how does this compare to Diablo 3?
Ive played the hell out of that game for a couple year and now this game has my interest.


Thanks!

Re: Divinity: Original Sin

With Fallout 4, Trails SC and Tomb Raider soon to drop, too much on plate now, but planning on picking this up during the Steam winter sale to pass time after the new year.

It's a different style of game then Diablo. It has turn based combat, you manage a party instead of a single character, and its way more focused on dialogue and story.

Played about 80 hours of Diablo 3 on console and picked up the game yesterday (played about 2 hours). Nothing like Diablo 3. It's party based and the combat is not live. So far I really like it. Diablo is the kind of game you can play in short burst but Divinity requires a longer investment of time to enjoy.

Man, didn't realize they bumped the price of this to $60 on console. Now I really don't expect it to sell well in the console space. At least the second one is already on the way.

Re: Divinity: Original Sin

Yet they'll continue to fork over $60 for awesome action shooter #749075639473496576943

Doesn't really have anything to do with it. You have to know your audience. This will never sell at $60 to a more casual gamer on consoles, but at $30-$40 it may garner some more attention.

DoS would not sell on consoles even if the asking price was $10. The game is an old-school complex RPG and it's difficult. Target group is ages 30 or even 35+. The majority of them have already a decent pc system. Console only owners aging from 15 to 30 will not buy the game with some exceptions ofc. It will sell a bit more than Wasteland 2 though.

Yep a totally different style.
I love Diable but have had quite a bit more fun with Divinity. I love the turn based aspect also.

Planning out a strategy and then implementing it.. then either smiling when it all comes together or curse you totally missed something that screws you.. lol

Really having a good time with it (Have on PC also but couldn't resist also grabbing for PS4.

Re: Divinity: Original Sin

I am loving this game on so many levels. It is just so much fun with so many things to do and explore. Plus we are really getting our moneys worth out of the local co op gameplay.

Re: Divinity: Original Sin

Told my wife I want this for Christmas, so she put the order in last night.

Definitely excited, but do you guys have any tips? Closest game I've played to this would be Dragon Age Origins, which isn't exactly turn based. I already feel overwhelmed looking at all of the builds for just the two main characters, let alone party members.

My only tip is take your time and be mindful of your surroundings. For me I really need to stay focused and plan my fights and make sure I use my team's abilities correctly and have it all work together.
