Does anyone remember this old game ? Released back in 2002, this game had more than 200+ hours of play time, a fantastic soundtrack and highly addictive gameplay. The game itself was an awesome fusion between Diablo and Ultima, and definitely is one of the best RPGs ever made, in my humble opinion

There is a (infamous) sequel called Divinity 2: Ego Draconis, and it definately didn't keep the same standard :(

I heard Divinity 2 is pretty good.

I'd like to play it but I'm snowed in with games, and time sinking RPGs are going to make things more difficult.

Anyway from all that I know this is one of the most criminally underrated RPGs, and has some of the best world building and use of mechanics to enforce the narrative.

It's pretty good, but Arcania was better imo. Also Divinity 2 (with the Dragon Knight Saga additions) was a pretty solid RPG.

I'm sure that I did everything in about 50 hours and I know because I checked a walktrhough and I had only totally missed one side quest. The game is basically a Diablo clone with a little more of proper RPG gameplay. Good but nothing to do a thread of an old PC only game on the system wars board.
