Isolated into their most basic elements there’s a predictability to everything, a logic that can be employed in some situations (particularly combat) for perfectly unsurprising outcomes. A teleportation glove can lead someone too clever for their own good somewhere they’re absolutely not prepared to be. An arrow shot astray in a fight can cause an unrelated and cascading loop of fire, poison and electricity to render a nearby area completely impassable. A seemingly inconsequential conversation with someone can lead to them dropping dead from some unholy and unknown force. A lot of different things can happen in Divinity: Original Sin 2 it’s an RPG that is overwhelmingly about planning ahead yet still being completely taken by surprise. It’s an RPG that is overwhelmingly about planning ahead yet still being completely taken by surpriseĪnd that’s incredibly valuable. It’s a good idea to take advantage of this, since a more diverse set of skills can ensure a party is ready to deal with anything.
Better still, they offer players the option to influence their class when they do join up, so a party that’s already brimming with magic users can nudge a new companion in a different direction to fill a skill gap. Origin characters will become companions if they aren’t picked as the player character, meaning that their stories and the unique interactions they can have aren’t completely locked off. Players still have complete control over the origin character’s class, abilities and appearance, so there’s wiggle room even if you love a character concept but hate their weapon/hair/cannibalism-related clairvoyance. Choosing an origin character doesn’t mean sacrificing any chance at customization, though.
Players can customize their own characters (down to picking an instrument to highlight their personal soundtrack) or choose from several pre-made origins. From the very beginning Original Sin 2 feels wonderfully flexible.
