There is the typical fantasy lineup of races to choose from, Elf, Dwarf, Human and the more unique, Lizard and Undead. Has this money been put to good use? Yes, unquestionably yes.īefore diving into the intricacies of the game mechanics and how the world reacts to the player I first need to explain the character creation and how choices here impact aforementioned elements. Developed by Larian Studios this tactical RPG smashed its kickstarter goal of $500,000 within just 12 days and by the end of the campaign receiving a whopping $2,000,000. That was only the start of my journey into Divinity: Original Sin 2, a game with meticulous attention to detail where the smallest of actions can shape events in the future. We had avoided yet another deadly situation and were one step closer to our freedom. Ifan laughed, who with his affinity towards animals could understand them, he informed us that the dogs were each shouting ‘Ball! Ball! My turn?! Ball!’. Tossing the ball across the room the now harmless pooches each dived for it and chased it, barking happily and growling playfully. The hounds paused, gaping maws slowly closing and the dangerous gleam in their eyes fading. I don’t know when or why, but I had picked up a bright red squeaky ball sometime during my adventuring. Readying ourselves with makeshift weapons and tattered rags we stood, prepared to die for our freedom, when suddenly a high pitched squeak interrupted snarling hounds. Five trained armoured dogs raised their heads and bared their teeth. Tasting freedom we hurried into the keep and in our eagerness stumbled upon the kennels.

Ifan winked, his signature gesture for a job well done, Lohse was grinning from ear to ear and Beast grunted his way up, the ladder designed for humans not dwarves. Silently I lowered a ladder so that the rest of my party could join me. We had hit so many dead ends, escape plans foiled and betrayals leaving us stranded on this island. The coast was clear, Lohse, my fiery haired enchantress, carefully used her teleportation enchanted gloves to materialise me onto an unguarded balcony.
