Has anyone done it? What do you think of it?
 
I was thinking of getting it, but i'm a bit unsure if it is worthwhile...

No, but I am interested to hear something as well.  The reviews are averaging 74, so as RPGs are concerned, it certainly is on my list.

There is plenty to do in Divinity II, and if you don't mind putting up with the poor visuals or combat, there are plenty of side-quests to take on to extend your experience. 

It's an old-school computer RPG made by Belgians--this is not a mainstream, big budget title from the likes of Bethesda or BioWare.  This is a niche title that some players will like a lot, and more will probably not care for.   It's also moderately buggy on the PC, and very buggy on the 360, so beware of that.

There's a demo out and Giant Bomb's quicklook for you to get a good look at what the game is like.  The demo especially does a solid job of letting you get a feel for the game.

The quicklook here on the site the GB guys did is pretty much exactly what you will see the entire thing I imagine. Like Savage says there is a demo up for it you can download which I actually played for an hour or so and still never managed to "beat" it. I can't really explain my thoughts on it perfectly but I for some reason could not stop playing the demo despite hating almost everything about the game... So weird.

At least 49 players have played the 360 version here on Giant Bomb.  That's what the achievements page says.

That quicklook was extremely biased and negative, they basically pointed out everything bad about the game in the short time they played. It was probably one of the worst quick looks I've seen. Quick looks are meant to give unbiased opinions of the game as if you were just starting it out with no preconceived notions, to see if you would like it apart from reviews... not the garbage that the Divinity 2 quick look was. If I remember correctly, they were talking about why this was called Divinity 2 instead of 3 because there was Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity. Someone else pointed out that the second one wasn't that good, and that the next Divinity game that comes should be called Divinity 2 again. I just think that was a jackass thing to say in a quicklook.  The game is great, I've played it for a bit at a friends on his 360 and I plan on getting it soon. By a bit I mean around 4 hours :P "

" @xyzygy: Its called opinions. :) "

I bought Divinity 2 and am playing it right now. So far it's pretty entertaining and I am enjoying my time with it. But as others said, it's an old school RPG from a small company, so don't expect it to be to DragonAge or Oblivion quality. Definitely worth the money for me so far though, even though it does have its quirks.
 
And for my 2 cents, that quicklook was terrible. I personally prefer quicklooks to be showing the game, not pre-reviewing it. They had obviously decided they didn't like it before they started the video. And what was the point of bringing in some guy that worked on the engine but had nothing to do with the game? It's their site obviously and can do quickoooks however they want, but if they don't intended to be objective about it, I'm not sure what the point is. I thought it was to give an unopinionated look at the game, but I guess not. Seems it's more of an informal/unofficial review. And I say this about all quicklooks, not just Divinity 2. Anyway, I guess I'll continue to watch them on mute so I don't have to deal with it. Seems a shame, though.

In all seriousness, why would you not want some opinions while they're playing. It would be pretty awkward for them to play in silence.

 Opinions are one thing, but deciding beforehand that you don't like the game then having the entire quicklook be just ragging on it doesn't do their viewers much of a service. That seems to be what happened in this quicklook and I've seen it in others as well. That pretty much makes quicklooks useless for getting a view of the game before I buy it, which is what I thought their purpose was to some degree. I don't need GiantBomb to tell me if I should buy a game (or to tell me to play Dragon Age instead -- already played it, thanks), but if they get it early I'd love to see some gameplay ahead of time. That's what I thought the intent of a quicklook was, you know, a "quick look", not a review. Perhaps I was wrong.  Anyway, this horse is long dead. I'm enjoying the game, so apparently Dave and I differ in our opinions on RPGs. I'll keep that in mind the next time he does a quicklook. "

I liked the Ergo Draconis quicklook. Dave clocked a fair number of hours in the game and was able to discuss what was going on in the game and how thing work (unlike a lot of the other quicklooks that mostly are a bunch of uninformed comments). I suppose that opinions can vary about the game itself though.

I was going to buy it until my friend played it.  When my friend tells me "avoid it like the plague", then I avoid it like the plague.  We both enjoyed Sacred 2...so long as it was on consoles...and we're both fans of the first Divinity.
