Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General The setting feels like a breath of fresh air.

It's almost feels unreal that the game is finally out and not only that but after a week I can say that not only did it live up to all my expectations but it also surpassed them in quite a few cased.

I only reached the end of the first act however the one thing I never suspected though was how much I would love the more lighthearted setting that's mixes in humor with serious quests. I do enjoy games like the Dragon Age or the Witcher, although admittingly the first more then the second but all these serious or grim-dark RPGs was starting to feel a little old.

Not everything has to be serious all the time and one of the things I find myself enjoying the most is how unpredictable this game can be. When I enter a new area I never know if I will face down some broody necromancer or discuss if zombie-trolls have to be paid in order to cross a bridge. I think this might be one of the first games in years that surprised every step of the way.

I know there are several review things already but I wanted to take some time and thank Larian for their rather unique approach to quests and lore. Even though they use cliches all over the place I find myself appreciating each and every one because everyone else seems to be doing their best to avoid them these days!
