Synopsis
Dragons: they have been hunted, they have been slain, but now the hour to strike back has come. Break free from the confines of the human body and take to the skies in this epic RPG adventure that challenges your wits and pits you against a thousand foes. Spread your wings, burn your enemies: become the dragon! This Developer's Cut includes the ultimate edition of Divinity II, good for 100+ hours of highly acclaimed RPG gameplay, as well as the brand new Developer Mode and many more amazing extras!
Gameplay
I usually don't play games like this, but I had to on this one as many of my friends told me it was good. But i still stick to my gut feeling and stay away from games like this. I've never liked fantasy games as they all seem a bit to scripted for my liking, and this is no different. You can only go one way and one way only. You try to go through the gates and there are barriers in the way. I hate that side of things as you can't go exploring. The start sequence is very good i must say, but it's about the only thing I like about it...
Graphics
The graphics are surprisingly good and even more surprisingly easy to run. I ran this all presets to maximum and had a solid 70FPS all the way through. I'd put this games graphics on par with Skyrim, they are very similar. The terrain detail is very nice to look at and is very clear. The water is of very high quality. But the point where it lost me was on the players model, everything is of low resolution and blurry. Which i cannot understand one bit, why skimp on the thing that is most focused on by the player?
Controls
Now i seem to think that you cannot play a 3rd person fantasy game without a controller, but they have worked wonders with this game, the button layout is almost perfect, (I had to correct 2 things overall) it just takes a while to master, but it shows you how to do everything as you progress through the game. Using a controller is still easier as you can sort of guess the controls as most other games use a standard layout.
