From a new player (like yourself), i have to say that i am playing divine divinity for a week now and i'm loving it.
I only realized the game existed after seeing the D2 preview, and i realized on this forums that there were 2 games previous to this adventure RPG story.
I tried them (even though i had a very hard time geting them bought online) and i'm loving it.
Divine DIvinity is now a very aged game (of course since its very old), but honestly i dont care about the low-tech graphics because the story is AWESOME.
Dont be fooled by the reviews you might have seen (even though a couple reviews out there point Divine Divinity as one of the best RPGs ever). Try it out. DOnt expect a cutting edge graphic, but expect a very compeling story and an amazing soundtrack.
Trust me or not, but in 1 week i was made a fan. Heck, in 1 hour or less i was already a fan.
Good luck.
