Well, I must admit that the graphics look just plain bad in this screenshot:

One of the good things about Divinity 2, is that it ain't boasting a state of the art graphical engine. Why is this so good?
1) You don't need a 2000€ rig you bought in the last year to play it
2) More focus to gameplay, leveldesign, story etc... rather than fancy graphics.
DD & BD were far from technical masterpieces even in their day, gameplay and good artwork wins over technical excellence in my book each time.
