If you’re more Righteous, your Leadership ability is increased. If you find your choices lean towards more the Spiritual side than the Materialistic, your character will be immune to Fear. The choices each character makes have in-game effects, as well. It’s an odd mechanic to include (should this person live or die? best two out of three to determine), but one that can be skipped in favor of randomized dice rolls. If you disagree, then prepare yourself for mini-game that is the ultimate decider of worlds and fates: rock-paper-scissors. When playing with a friend, these decisions are made separately you make your choice, and your friend makes his or hers. Maybe one decides that the man stealing a fish to feed his family has every right to do so, while the other hunter believes it is wrong no matter what the circumstances. Many of these conversations will allow you to shape the type of people you wish the Source Hunters to be by choosing their responses separately. Throughout the course of the game the two main characters will engage in dialogue with a variety of NPCs, their mercenary allies, and each other. The only actual in-game impact is seen through the cooperative dialogue choices.
There aren’t any special team up attacks that become available when playing with friends, or better loot drops you just get a friend to join you in your quest and share in the victories. Doing this with one friend is relatively easy, but coordinating four peoples’ schedules usually means someone is going to get left behind.Īll of that aside, teaming up with friends to tackle foes and lose yourself in a fantasy world that is, in part, of your own making is fun and that’s really the intent behind Divinity's co-op. This also means you’re basically scheduling your play time with the game in order to progress with your friend. In the end, this may be a good thing as progression through the campaign and any experience/loot you acquire is only saved to the host’s game, meaning anyone who joins you will not reap the rewards of their efforts back on their side. Four players are supported through mods to the game, using the Divinity Toolkit that comes with it, but so far there aren’t any mods with that feature. The final product, however, only supports up to two for the entirety of the game’s campaign. Originally, we were told Divinity: Original Sin would support up to four players online or through a LAN connection. Certain elements are instantly familiar to anyone who’s played D&D (or possibly even Baldur’s Gate), but for many other players, it may feel a bit like jumping into Dark Souls for the first time. It’s good that there isn’t extensive handholding and Larian allows players to experience much for themselves, however, a little more pointing in the right direction would go a long ways towards making the game more approachable.
