Whoever is responsible for reviewing this game you better deliver a clean unbiased review, this is the one indie title that managed to pull a vast number of AAA PC players from their comfort zone and back to their roots. I don't even want to see Skyrim or Dragon Age again, they are so empty in comparison.

And hurry the hell up! Stop reviewing those POS indie 2D side-scrollers. They died in the 90s.

edit: Sorry Kevin, I'll be sure to check your Twitter next time.

Someone seems a little biased...

Anyways, I am going to get this game because I think it looks interesting, but I don't know if it will be a game of the year game until I actually play it this weekend.

Trust me, It makes Divinity Original Sin look like a child's game. The Combat has incredible depth with a party of 6.

Trust that Divinity has a child's gameplay? Not even close to true, I really enjoyed the combat of Divinity and Pillars. They aren't mutually exclusive and both have some nice depth.

Show a little patience guys. Kevin Van Ord is reviewing the game I believe and was rushed to emergency recently. This is on his Twitter page.

Also, prior to this he encountered a game-breaking bug.

You make a very good point, highlighting something that honestly, it's a bit juvenile.

Ah if Kevin is reviewing it then it is worth the wait. Hope he recovers soon.

His game-breaking bug is patched as of tomorrow so hopefully he does not penalize the game. All game-breaking bugs seem to be fixed with the new patch (read patch notes).

edit: To the Original Sin fans: Turn-based combat patch is also coming to the game via free patch.

I will take the turn-based combat in Divinity over the CF that PoE combat can devolve into. I like PoE, quite a bit actually, but combat is its weakest link.
