Its funny cuz a day or two after i made this thread. Swen in a gamespot interview or one of the others he did simultaneously was like "divinity actually had all this dark stuff but it was text based now its actually on the screen" which is exactly what i wrote in OP so im glad he said that and im glad its the route its going. I wouldve loved to have seen that good witch that went crazy naked on a cross in act 2 in CGI up close, i would love to see a face ripper ACTUALLY rip a face off and we see it instead of just text "his face ripped off" i want to SEE the stuff that was only TEXT in DOS 2. PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN SWEN AND CO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The problem wasn't that it was text based, look for example what Owlcat or old Bioware could do with just text, but that the older games were full of Larian Whimsy™ which drowned out all the dark elements.
