The Divinity: Original Sin (beta) writing is terrible! And that's an understatement. As far as I can tell. The English version of the game in the current beta stage is making my brain die, while sometimes causing my eyes to bleed.
Everything is "cheesy"! Who the hell wrote this stuff?
The game also has a complete and total lack of humor... or the humor is simply so bad that it's making me shed tears of blood!
What the hell where you people thinking when you wrote some of this stuff?
Like those codes for the robot 5000 something. Happy kitten angry kitten... what!? Am... am I supposed to laugh or feel sorry for the poor sod who made that contraption? Also if that robot became self aware why would a control device be able to make it stop? If it's self aware then... it basically reprogrammed itself. Am I right?
And there are so many lines that just make me cringe. Can't you developers inject a spine in to those characters? And make everything more serious and less cliché?
Now I might be an expert, but I'll give you some good examples of "actual humor" in gaming and movies. The good stuff that would actually be more fitting.

Oh and please... no more rhyming wizards or some crazy nutjobs locked inside caves. I don't think I can hold back my urge to slaughter those guys for much longer.
