I've been messing around in it for a bit now, it's a refreshing experience indeed, although by no means better than DA:O imo.
It really is a rough gem, but that often also means a good deal of laughing and fun while you figure out how to do stuff, and excitement when you grasp the possibilities (and there's a lot of those in Divinity 2).
Dragon Age and Bioware's RPG's are still better in working out the world and the characters in it though, although they're also a lot more linear than this (some people will enjoy the bigger freedom you have).
Still, a great effort for a small company like Larian; good to see some games developed on the home front (they're located very close to where I live), I think they really could get up there with the best of the best if their games catch on (sadly, marketing could be better, it even took some time to find it here in Belgium, where they're located).
Feel free to use my referral link for SW:TOR if you want to test out the game. You'll get some special unlocks!
I've read the Larian forums, specifically the technical section. If the U.S. release is as big a bug-filled POS as the other releases apparently are, I'll pass. Dragon Age was a big enough disappointment that I paid for.
I have the game and unfortunately have the stuttering no matter what I set my graphics at. I'm going to try to tweak my PC setting this weekend and see what happens.
Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!
Tried the demo. Its optimized like crap. I'm playing Modern Warfare2 on High and Dragon Age on Max settings, but Divinity2 runs horribly and doesn't look any better. The animation is just bad, which basically kills it for me. Nothing about the demo made me want to buy the game.
