Saves seem to me to take a long time. I've disabled the autosave.

Speedy for me, saves take 2-3 seconds at most. Try reinstalling or checking your HD sectors?

Yeah the limited rotation annoyed me too. Is there some game design reason for it? Is it a graphical issue? I don't get it.
ed: Oh, I see C.Napkin said this already. I'll just quote him since it's a new page.: There's an option to unlock full camera rotation under Game Settings, not video settings. When you do it warns you the base campaign isn't made to support it and it's there more for custom scenarios. I haven't bothered to try it, not bugging me that much yet but I'm barely past the tutorial.

Messed around with it for 30 minutes last night. There are so many options for character creation that I will probably never be satisfied with my choice of characters. Dammit.

Larian just published a small hotfix which I think (no patch notes, yet) it's related to the final version of some localizations (namely, german and french; dunno about the russian one), KS rewards and some other minor stuff. Looks like they're also working on the annoying voiceover loops: https://twitter.com/larianstudios/status/483956378789494784 |

LOL, nice video  . And yeah, at first glance the Knight is kinda unattractive, probably gets better when you have a full party of 4 and those support skills actually get better along with more complex fights. 1.0.40 changelist (no spoilers): Hotfix 1.0.40.0 (01.07.2014)
+German and French are now available.
+The Source Hunter DLC now works correctly
+We fixed a crash during trade
+The game manual is now online
+We fixed a problem with item positioning |

People in Global chat were talking about how Melee is unviable. Must be later in the game because I found spells (other than lighting and summons) unviable in the preview. Finding the same to be true at release.
Give someone a 1h mace or a 2h sword and wack the shit out of things where spells were *plink* *plink* "Oh shit he's in melee range.." Ranged weaps weren't any better but at least you can take a few steps in retreat every turn.

There's nothing new about that - companies used to sell game genies because people wanted shortcuts, cheats and instant wins 20 years ago... :)

Hint lines used to be a thing.
This game is really old school in a way that people playing it now were toddlers or not born when comparable games were released.
I appreciate the tutorial dungeon showing you some of the environment interactions. Makes me feel like I should always have a fire spell available, even if I don't plan to use it for much else other than lighting shit on fire.

I have no problem with the difficulty or lack of tutorial. I do, however, have a problem with the fact the narrative is not clear to me. But then, Europe will be Europe.

That first dungeon that you find before you go in the first town is supposed to be the tutorial. They only tell you that, though, if you go in the town before you go in the dungeon. If you do it in the right order, you'll never know it was the tutorial. |

Yup.
Also, what's so hard about the narrative?

One more hotfix (v. 1.0.41 , no spoilers) : Hello everybody,
Thank you for all your feedback. It's helped us fix a number of issues which were hard to track.
- Fixed: Crashes on saving
- Fixed: Dialogs locking up when talking to certain npcs with two players
- Fixed: Extremely big pool of blood
- Fixed: Cloud artefacts
- Fixed: Crash during unlearning active skills
- Fixed: Steam cloud saving (the Steam from Valve that is, the Steam cloud in game was already working :) )
- Fixed: German and French translation artefacts. You still need to manually activate the subtitles in the options screen. We'll make it automatic on the next update.
- Fixed: Corruption caused by video playback on Mac
For our Kickstarter backers - we've located the reason why you're not getting the DLC and are working on a solution.
Have fun! |

I'm thinking of things specifically like in Final Fantasy VI, where you had to walk down X number of steps from point A and press a button to unlock a cool hidden esper, with nothing in the game actually indicating that you could or should do that. Love the game, but fuck that noise.
At least from my 15 minutes messing around with Divinity last night, all the random collectible shells were labeled.

What's the deal with multiplayer? Purely one-on-one co-op, or is more Minecraft, where many people can run around in the same server? As long as this isn't one of those old-school games that makes me compulsively click on asbolutely everything because they hide loot all over the place. Death to pixel-hunting.
That is precisely what this is. With a varnish of Eurotrash. Pretty much my impression after a mere 45 minutes. There are some critical items that are too small to see (example: keys) without holding down ALT to make names appear. |

The first major quest is obtuse as all hell in parts and doesn't seem to trigger things logically. This is starting to annoy me. How did this quest stay in game as is with all of the free play testing they got? edit: managed to progress it. In a completely logical way.  |

So there's an update. Like right now. So it shut my game down in the middle of a big fat fight. Also - for those who like this sort of game and never got around to Sacred 2, it's on Steam for $3.99. |

Sacred 2 is a weird fucking Diablo clone and nothing like Divinity: Original Sin.
DOS is eurotrash Baldur's Gate with horrific writing.

I want to like the Sacred series, but their classes are strange and the camera on S2 might be the worst camera I've ever used.
That game world is HUGE though, and the synergy in skills is good. I'm not sure it's worth playing due to the above, though.
Tonight I'm spending almost the entirety in Original Sin. No work, just play.
