Tags: Beyond DivinityRPGDot's Dhruin has done a review of Beyond Divinity. Basically, it lacks a little polish, there's a few problems with the interface and what not, the battlefields are boring, but the gameplay is cool. Here's a clip:
Despite the lack of polish and some of the new ideas falling a little flat, Beyond Divinity succeeds overall because the basic gameplay works, coupled with a strong story and great interaction with the gameworld. The biggest hurdle to players enjoying Beyond Divinity is their expectation for Beyond Divinity to be Divine Divinity 2 and the tedious opening dungeon.
I think I would have been more inclined to get this game if it weren't party based, so it were more like Divine Divinity.
Thanks, Dhurin!
