Divinity: Original Sin 2 Reviews
One of the best computer role-playing games ever, with such a level of complexity and flexibility it's difficult to believe it exists, let alone that it could ever be bettered.
Divinity Original Sin 2 is a master class in what RPGs should be. Amazing writing and detail paired with astounding freedom. A must play for RPG fans.
An absolute triumph of RPG design, and a sprawling, content-filled game that's sure to enthrall any and all that dive into it. With great quests, satisfying combat, and intelligent systems that all feed into the flow of gameplay perfectly.
Divinity: Original Sin 2 is raw and savage, and it's easily one of the best RPGs we've played this year.
It should come as no surprise to anyone that Larian is leading the race for the best RPG of the year.

As a result, Divinity: Original Sin 2 may be one of the best RPG games I've ever played in my life. The freedom and opportunities it provides to the player make the world you are in realistic and put you in a situation where you think about the consequences.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is the strongest CRPG in decades, with a fascinating plot that enthrals, despite taking a while to get going and being hard as nails at times. It's the little adventures that flesh out the world and so much of it can be missed at first glance because you didn't have the right skill or failed a persuasion check. Massive in scope and jam packed with features that includes a GM mode that shows a surprising amount of customisation with great ease, Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a bumper package.
A true masterpiece. It takes everything that made the first game great and then adds to it to make it even better.

Join the ranks of the gods in Divinity: Original Sin II, an RPG so fantastic that it may well have been divinely inspired.
It is, on so many levels, an incredible achievement, packed with enough heart, intelligence, and confidence to sustain ten lesser games. It’s a testament to its form, even as it’s held back by it in places. It still feels premature to declare Original Sin 2 an all-time classic, as some have, but I imagine plenty of future games will borrow ideas from it. It’ll be a crying shame if they don’t.
This might just be the very best RPG since The Witcher 3. No. No. Scratch that. It is the best RPG since The Witcher 3.
Divinity: Original Sin II is a new landmark in the RPG universe. The world is immersive and dynamic, the combat-system deep and versatile, and the narration solid and engaging. The only problem is the beginning difficulty for new players, after that you can discover one of the best gaming experience ever.

Larian Studios has kept all its promises, realizing a title that surpasses the previous one in every respect; from writing, to gameplay to first-class graphics. It is undoubtedly a watershed, a title with which - from now on - every role-playing game will have to confront.

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a masterpiece and there are simply not enough words in the English language I can use to describe how I felt playing it. Visually it is vibrant, stunning and wonderfully elegant, with a soundtrack to match that never misses a beat. Every characters is hugely unique and excellently brought to life through both staggering voice acting and creative design, meaning whether you chose to play as your own or one of Larian’s “guys”, you’ll never have the same experience twice.
Stop whatever it is you're doing right now, and go play this game. Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a definitive game-of-the-year contender, and one of the best RPGs to be released this entire decade.
With its rich story, compelling characters, and wealth of different ways to approach any situation, Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a title that plants its flag in the tactical RPG genre and stands heads and tails above its competitors. Requiring plenty of patience to learn the game mechanics and to absorb the immense amount of story thrown at the player; this title may not be for everyone but if you're willing to invest the time this title is one that will be played over and over for years to come.
Divinity: Original Sin 2 is simply the pinnacle of the CRPG genre. It offers a campaign with memorable characters, interesting role-playing options, and excellent systemic combat. The environments are beautiful and the soundtrack is solid. That alone would put it at the top of the heap, but then Larian added offline and online coop, a PVP arena mode, and Game Master mode, the greatest throwback to the Dungeons & Dragons pen-and-paper games that underpin the entire genre. I might have small issues here and there, but Divinity: Original Sin 2 is one of the best in a strong year for gaming.
Larian Studios' sequel successfully walks the thin line separating empowering choices and confusing chaos
A CRPG of unparalleled breadth and dynamism, Original Sin 2 is Larian's masterpiece.
