The tactical RPG “Divinity: Original Sin 2” is very popular with 95% positive reviews on Steam. Currently, you can get the game with a 65% discount for around €16.
What kind of game is Divinity: Original Sin 2? The game takes place in a fantasy setting and continues the story of its predecessor. You control a party consisting of 4 so-called “Source Mages”, giving you extraordinary magical abilities.
The problem is: The “Divine” is dead, and the Source Mages are now being blamed for attracting evil beings from other dimensions. Therefore, the game starts with the scenario that you have been captured and imprisoned. Now it is up to you what future awaits you and your team members.
As a group of mages, you explore the game world, uncover secrets, and solve puzzles. In combat situations, you need to act strategically and use your characters’ actions wisely.

Make your decisions wisely
What does the gameplay in Divinity: Original Sin 2 look like? First, you create your character or choose a pre-set character. You have various classes available such as mage, warrior, or rogue, and you can play as humans, dwarves, elves, lizards, or undead, making the game world unsafe.
Divinity: Original Sin 2 offers you numerous ways to interact with NPCs: Talk to people or animals to learn more about them – or kill them. You can even communicate with ghosts.
The decisions you make in the game affect the story’s progression and can have far-reaching consequences. It can even influence the fate of an entire world.
In combat, your strategic abilities are put to the test, as you can only perform a certain number of actions each round. For instance, you can move your character or attack. Attacks can also be combined into powerful elemental combinations.
Your enemies can range from simple animals to massive monsters, and you may have to face entire hordes of them at once.
You can play the game both alone and in co-op, online, or with a split screen. Up to 4 people can play together, with each of you controlling one character from the group.
