Divinity Original Sin 2 vs Witcher 3

but it's best to experience Original Sin to story in the shoes of the wonderfully written characters created by Larian. The degree of character specif...

My single biggest issue with The Witcher 3 is that it never becomes much more. The overly long main story is essentially just Geralt running errands f...

In this one, the shops almost always have better equipment than I can scrounge up, so I feel motivated to spend my hard earned fake gold...

. If someone have issue with language packs and PSN region locks, then this review is for you. As a person who lives in US and who speak Russian, sometimes trying to find a game with your native language is a big pain, because of Sony stupid policies and region locks

The game's combat system is fantastic, in particular, I quite like the Magic/Physical armour systems, effectively separating fights into two phases beginning with a slugfest and ending in a game of stuns, whether it be through Knocks, Freezes, or literal Stuns y'gotta find some way or another to skip enemy turns and avoid getting skipped yourself with skills like First Aid or Armour of Frost

It took me around 65 hours to finish the main story and I still have hours of side quests left that could easily put my run time over the 100 hour mar...

I had other minor objections to the combat system (like the fact that almost every character has an ability that allows them to leap huge distances, which makes things feel less tactical) but the real problem is the way Larian uses the system. To quote R.P. McMurphy, Larian likes a rigged game

The open world is pretty big, and there are many quests and side missions to accomplish. I finished the main story after about 75 hours (I loot everything in every cave/house/area I go into), but there are still 2 DLCs and many side missions I still need to finish. Plenty of content and replayability with the varying endings you can get. #TeamYennifer

Graphics are also not up to par compared to the PC. If you want to own this game, purchase on the PC. It is well worth it

Witcher 3's visual design is so excellent that it still looks amazing despite the low resolution textures and jagged meshes. What it really needs is a lighting engine revamp. Making torches have realistic illumination of rooms and surfaces, and cat potion effect not over exposing light sources. Night should also be dark, rather than daylight but blue
