Pt. 2, the Mini Review

Morning Break Time!

Just dropping an official "Mini Review" of Divinity 2: Ego Draconis.

Graphics: 5 out of 10. Technically, it's a mess. Choppy. Screen tearing. Draw in is bad. Not bad whenever you stand still and the characters are all neatly designed. The Dragons are nice.

Sound: 9 out of 10. I do enjoy a little wit in a game and this has it. The characters all sound interesting and well acted. There's even a whimsical narrator for small sound bites. The musical score, while seemingly generic, adds some real feelings to various settings.

Control: 7 out of 10. A little sluggish but I feel nimble, which is rare for a game like this. Ususally I feel like a tank. Menus are easy enough to navigate but could be cleaner.

Story: 7 out of 10. Standard fantasy fair. Could be a little more direct, as I have felt lost a number of times during the game.

Overall: 7 out of 10. Decent story and controls, bad graphics but amazing sound. A strong 7 out of 10 title.

Next update soon!
