Divine Divinity: 10/10 points |
I have played (and developed) CRPGs for a long time. I've worked in the industry for eight years, and have played these games since I was a kid...for over 20 years.
This game is phenomenal. It's not using the same tech that people are coming to expect...it's more like Fallout (or Baldur's Gate, or other BIS games) technology, but taken to a bit of a higher level. Not a lot of high-end graphics wizardry is what might keep people away...but honestly the graphics serve the game well, and to dismiss the game because the graphics aren't cutting-edge would be a big mistake.
The gameplay and the immersiveness is where this game shines. You CAN play this game for five minutes, progress a bit, and quit. But you'll have a heck of a time doing it. It's more like potato chips...just a LITTLE longer.
It's really open ended, and you feel like you can follow your own nose and do what you want when you want. There's a LOT of scripted events, though, and everything reacts to what you're doing...it never feels generic or randomly generated. Everything feels handcrafted and like a true piece of gaming art.
What's funny is that the more you play it, the more it seems to turn into YOUR game...like a well-worn baseball glove.
Comparitively, I liked Morrowind and NWN just fine. I thought NWN would be as good as it got...man was I wrong! |
