Divinity Original Sin - Best RPG since Ultima VII?

The division. RPG.

Wat

 

Arguments like that just shows how serious you can take him. Obvious troll is obvious.

On another note: the game runs really well @4k now, really enjoying it again

 

Yeah they did a real number on the engine, went from not being able to keep 60fps at 1080p to only using about 75% of my GPU at max

 

Wake up the division is an mmo rpg yes check ur reasoning first before u come lashing out obvious who would troll here by saying it isnt an mmo rpg

 

I'm quite awake thank you.

Quote by David Polfeldt, managing director at Massive: “We wanted a lighter game than World of Warcraft. I’m not calling [The Division] an MMO,”
Hmm...maybe we should go with your reasoning instead of the bloody managing director. That would be a good way to go!

Also, maybe you could explain with the experience you seem to have with the division how it's an mmo rpg. I hope you're not basing your reasoning on the ubisoft "trailers". We've all seen how trustworthy they are...

And lastly, why are you comparing this game to a potential mmo rpg if you could even call it that? That's like comparing car racing to tennis. They're both sports right? Why isn't tennis more like car racing? *derp*

 

i am comparing rpg games in general whether its mmo or singleplayer, it is a Role playing game first and foremost, that's the basis i am comparing it about.

 

Comparing a fantasy party based strategic top-down rgp vs a modern "MMO" shooter isn't the best basis of comparison imho.

You can't expect these games to have the same attention. I'm guessing the writing in the division is nothing compared to that of Original Sin. I'm not going to complain about that. I don't expect that, it's not realistic to expect that.

 

i agree its not the same style, but it is an rpg game as i said, whether historical, fantasy or whatever, my point is, rpg games dont get attention they should by 2015 standard of gaming industry on the aspect i previously mentioned.

 

Depends on what you think is important. If graphics and animation are your prime concerns, then I agree with you.

If gameplay, world building, story/writing is more important, then I don't.

Studio's have to make a choice to stay within budget. All these aspects cost time and money.
How often do you see fantastic looking games with all the factors I mentioned above?

It's very rare.

It's also very heavily opinion based. I think Original Sin looks great for example. They went for a certain style and it works.
Modern military shooters, where the graphics are the most advanced, often have cliché stories (if any), boring gameplay, and nowadays the multiplayer is wonky at best.

I'd rather have a game that's fun to play (and works) than a fantastic looking trainwreck.

 

Has to be the API. It's Dx11 now I believe, used to be Dx9. I'm at ~37%

I know for a fact on the normal version the game couldn't run at a consistent 60 at 2k res on my PC (played just a couple months ago last time).

 

I just died 25h in on my honour mode save GG

 

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is out in early access today!

KS backers should be able to get their keys some point, you need to first make a key on larian vault and link both accounts, then claim it. I can't claim my key yet, some sort of bug or key server overload

 

Thks for the heads up. Still havent finished the first but will get round to it.

Will def pick up the second, whilst I prefer a more Baldurs gate type RPG this def is fun.

 

Yeah you've got a while to complete it, 2 isn't due out until at least december, but the EA page seems to say it's been pushed for 2017

 

Bought this on a Steam sale a couple years ago, and just now started playing it. I love it!
