It's very sadly that review ...
I see it yesterday too ... I find it a very bad review, totally beside the point what Divinity II realy IS !
Ok, not a game all people wish to play, but that's with all games the same thing.
For example:
I don't have the sense to buy Dragon Age or Risen or ... simply because these games can't give me the feeling: this game I wish to play!!
Regarding the cover and video, screenshots about Divinity II : I know by myself immediately I wish to play the game for sure!!
Yesterday I was in a gameshop watching to many other games, but none of them interessed me to buy it ... like I had that feeling with Divinity II
