Divinity Original Sin User MC: 93/100

and still no reviews from main gaming reviews outlets. *Cough* cough* Gamespot and IGN. I mean, come on, one of the most anitcipated rpgs this year, and Gamespot and Ign didn't bother to make a review about it day 1 even though the game was fully playable since June 20. But by some weird reason, GS had time to review the pus of Tranformers and a shitty PC exclusive that nobody heard of, Spoiler Alert.

Seriously, it's like GS and IGN is out of touch with current state of PC gaming. They miss on important releases and review indie shit instead just to fill a checkbox that they care about Indie game.

I know that the game was offically relased on June 30th, but come on GS, you could easily have access to the early version if you bothered to ask the dev or just bought an early access from Steam for 40 bucks.

Anyway, the game is REALLY great. I am getting so much Baldurs Gate-vibe with this one. The game is reallly daunting at first because of its scale and size, but it's really worth the effort to plunge in it.

Divinity Original Sin is also doing really great sales wise, being Steam's number 1 for a week. The current player number stats was pushed from 3k at launch to 20k after a weak of sales and it keeps growing.

I am really glad that this game is doing well. We all need the resurrection of good RPGs, not corrupted by Mountain Dew and Doritos fuelled industry.

Divinity: Original Sin about 60-80 hours long and and has had not early press releases. A fast review is most likely a disingenuous review.

From my impressions, having played 40 hours, 24 hours straight (due to being hardcore) it is indeed the best RPG since Baldur Gate II.

You just don't know how to interpret it correctly. It's very rare when PC gamers upscore something. We are not like cows and lemings, PC gamers are quick on punishment and very stingy on praises. So it's really worth mentioning when a game on PC breaks into 90s on MC. Especially an rpg.

Must be good, because as we all know, Metacritic user scores can be trusted.

Yeah, I find that hard to believe. PC gamers are not exactly saints.

Not saying all the voters are full of shit, but I just don't believe in user scores that serious.

Kevin V has been playing it and from his Twitter he really digs it. I expect a review for the game eventually. The dev probably didn't do advanced review copies and the game is pretty large and robust so it's going to take some time to get through for reviewers. They'll get there.

I hear nothing but amazing things.

While others are still busy begging for moar

All that effort to sign up, write a review, copy paste, post in mspaint, save image, upload image, write out post... and it will probably just get deleted by the end of the day.

Sadness.

why would you care about reviews from garbage sites like gamespot and ign? they are only useful for gameplay footage and there should be enough on youtube or other sites.

Well mostly to make this game succeed. Most people still use GS and IGN as main references. More people will know about this game the better, more sales for the dev, more chances that they will make something great again.

The fact that you went to trouble of writing that reply already shows me it bothered you more than you'd care to admit ;)

Also,

Don't worry, it's not like I expect any better from you.

I've always respected you the most.

Cows don't like it when they buy a movie and get an interactive game out of it for the ps4.
