Hello
I finished the demo of Beyond Divinity and I think that it isn’t so bad. Don’t get me wrong it’s a great game but Divine Divinity is beater. Controlling two characters is great and like Larian sad it brings new tactical options in fighting which is good. But on the other hand the pause button spoils the flow of the fight. And you have to use the option, to successfully take down harder enemies.
I think also that the panel on the top right side is too small. When you’re in a fight, you easily overlook the health bar. And again you have to pause the game to take potions and rearrange the characters.
I hope that the skills will be equally strong. In DD they were for the most part, except for the summoned scorpions. If you spend a lot of the skill point on them they became too good. The five scorpions max level, did all the hard work for you and you could relax and search the woods whit no fear.
The 3D generated characters don’t look good. The DD characters looked much better.
When I look at the hole picture of BD the game seems equally good and fun to play. It has all the fun things from DD (quests, searching for hidden objects…) and a few new fresh things that changed the game a lot.
