Hello Silencer,
since the game is only 1 day available so far here in germany, I can´t say anything about the dragon - shape (or anyone else I guess, cause it´s quite awhile ahead in the game until you receive this ability), but I can tell you what I think of the game so far after playing for about 6 hours:

the graphic may not be state-of-the-art compared to Oblivion i.e. although using the same engine, but it still looks very nice and the world is very lovely designed. The bad point here: you will need at least a dual core system with high end graphic card (at least gtx260) to run it smoothly.

The game itself is a "real" RPG - lots of quests which are very different and fit great into the world, you can solve most of them in different ways (good or bad). Character development is not limited to classes, you can pick "perks" and upgrade them with every level-up. So you can play as warrior using spells and bows or vice versa.
Every NPC has something to say and its spoken by them in a very nice manner, giving the game a fantastic atmosphere. Music fits nice into it too.

The combat is easy to learn and remembers me of a mixture of world of warcraft and diablo-style mouse clicking. One get used to it very quickly. You can even pause combat in the heat of the battle to use potions or aim a spell on an enemy.

So, Divinity 2 is a real nice RPG and worth the money you will spend on it. Trust me !
