    A good job...BUT...


    Divinity 2 well this game cought my eye while i was browsing threw gamestop and i just said well...with gamestops rule its free in a way so what the hell. But to my suprise since no one in gamestop herd anything about it i thought it was going to be a horrible game but it wasent completely the game had great detail and the maps were huge the first map took me like 8 hours to get past and i still didnt finish everything there was to do. and the story was kinda well there has been better *if you dont want to know the story at all please look away or skip ahead* basically dragons gave certin humans powers to kinda be dragons and a human kinda like a hybrid they can choose back and forward and theres a guy named damian who is the harbringer of all evil and made one of the so named dragon knight to kill the emperor and thus putting the world into a lot of shit. thats when a new order came about called the dragon slayers who...well killed the dragon knights but little do they know the dragons knights are trying to stop the evil sooooooooooo its kinda a cheesey story but hey whatever i went with it anyways onto GAMEPLAY  
     
    Its got pretty good graphics like i said and the game play isant bad either eventhough it has a STEEP learning curve since this game in unforgiving when it comes to auto saves and combat alone so you need to analize a situation closely before you just jump in swinging your sword and shooting your fireballs around. More to the steep learning curve is well its hard to get started you start in a backwater town and there is like 30 people there and only 10 of them have quests i believe and the quests you cant really miss unless your trying to suck even if you dont pick up the quests you can still get the items and pick the quests up later so thats kinda cool. Also the game has a way people look at you to either as a asshole or a hero since you can choose the tone in which you talk just like KOTOR or mass effect...and also theres like tons of weapons but they all look kinda the same also there is only like 7 diffent faces for guys and girls so either this game was made back east where the family tree go stright down or they just didnt want or care how people looked like. hummmmm theres single sword, two handed swords, sword and sheild, dual weilding, bows and uhhhhh i think thats it oh and my favorite thing to bitch about in ANY game is glitches ohhhh soooo many glitches that come about in this game its not even funny such as the saved game glitch lets say you save a game at point A and then travle down the road gain a few lvs and well now you save again and this will be point B and then almost immedatly after that you get pwned to fast you dont even get to say WTF well damn gotta load game good thing i saved right there and when the game loads your back at point A...ummm wth you still got all your stuff money weapons you picked up down the road everything your just WAY back at the beginning forceing you to run all the way back but all the enemies so this cant really help you in anyway. also there is the falling through the floor and well since there is NO FALL DAMMAGE you can jump off a mountain and fall for a good 10 to 12 seconds and hit the ground all you do is go to a knee and get back up so...when you fall threw the lv you will fall forever and for some reason you cannot load or save a game while falling so you need to go back to dash board...also if you save a game and DIE you will load a game that will be glitched such as the game will show your last moment of the game you died in and be forzen...just...taunting you like HAHAHA...you died...loser 
     
    but all and all this game was a decent game thats why i give it a 3/5 and i give it that because of the glitches and hours of going back to the dashboard and re starting the game completely i recomend this game to rent

      Not good but oddly compelling 0

      Divinity II certainly has an interesting premise. The idea is to create and customize your own character, down to the very last detail, and then take him on a very elaborate story involving Dragons and how to kill them. Along the way, the execution falls flat on its face, making Divinity II difficult to recommend. You assume the role of a Dragon Slayer set upon the mythical world of Rivellon with the ultimate goal of becoming a Dragon Knight. Very early on, you are able to choose your class betw...

      Well worth the patience 0

      First of all let's get the bad out of the way. Graphics are not up to par compared to modern rpgs, there is a tendency for the framerate to slow down, controls take a little getting used to, and there are bugs (which can usually be fixed by reloading). Also, the beginning can put off many people for how difficult and slow it may be, but that is how this game is built (you start out as a wimp and later turn god-like).   The game picks up right before the middle of the game (around the battle towe...
