Dear Larian Forumgoers,

I'm currently trying to conduct a review on Divinity Original Sin, and I've encountered a roadblock that's kept me from progressing easily in the game.

In short the game crashes sometimes when I save, and often when I transition to a new area.

The following zones almost always lead to crashes:
  • The End of the World zone initiated by entering the murder scene in the King Crab Tavern
  • Entering the End of the World after choosing which patient should live
  • Trying to teleport back to Cyseal from The End of the World with the teleportation skill.
  • Random Save screens that last forever and never progress.

The crashes lead to a "DOS is not responding" error, which must then be closed manually.

It's to the point where I can barely move forward in the game and I'd like to figure out a fix so that I can actually play enough to warrant a bona fide review.

I understand that many games are riddled with bugs, but subsequent crashes on integral parts of the game--saving and moving to new zones--is terrible, and I'd like to figure out a solution so that the review isn't negatively impacted further.

Thanks for your help and I look forward in progressing in this great CRPG--half of the frustration is that I do want to play, not just because of the review, but to genuinely enjoy the game.
