Few months ago I stumbled upon Divinity: Original Sin and although this game is more like classic RPG in the way that it's played from isometric perspective, I found a lot of resemblance with Witcher 3 and was extremely enjoyable experience. Venus are beautifully drawn, there are abundance of quests and different outcomes depending on your approach, weapons, armors, skills... You can team up with your buddy (multiplayer) or control all 4 characters (you can create two, while the other two you may acquire during the game). Different skill trees that you may develop you character within, whether you prefer hand to hand combat, magic, witchcraft or archery requires some good planning, otherwise the combat may become tedious, if not impossible and frustrating.

Is it really fun? What's the average gameplay there, what you do? Are there servers or everyone plays on one? Is the world really big?

There are heaps of different servers, you basically run and around and survive, build etc.

Any suggestions about a game like Swat 4 - Already tried Rainbox six quite nice but looking for others..

I feel like it's randomly going to turn into some horror game halfway through.

Firewatch looks interesting.

Couldn't resist and bought it Yesterday. Had some free time and decided to play. Managed to beat it in one sitting That's how short it was, about 4-5 hours or less.

Look, I can never play anything more than 2-3 hours at the most at one time. Firewatch's story was so intriguing and well written that it kept me from turning it off. Being on the short side would have bothered had the story not been this good. Fact is, I didn't really care because in the end it was satisfying.

It kinda gives me hope for No Man's Sky. Some people think "exploration games" aka 'walking simulators" are boring, I don't quite agree with that. Before that I played Everybody's Gone to the Rapture and before that The Vanishing of Ethan Carter and both left a long lasting good impression. There's something about getting home from a rough day, relaxing and getting into this unknown world and just exploring what it has to offer.

Oh, and of course for 17 bucks it's not a bad deal. I'd recommend it.

You liked the ending? I read that many people felt it was disappointing, or this was a large buildup seemingly for something that wasn't worth it.

I did. I can't explain why without spoiling it so if you intend to play it don't read below

Spoiler

The ending basically shows that sometimes things are much simpler than they seem to be. There isn't always a conspiracy against you, a complex chain of events that lead to something grandiose. Sometimes it's just a coincidence and things are just what they are and the reasons could have easily be explained if you kept your cool and thought things through.

Interesting. I still may play it anyway, not sure yet.

It's old but I've never seen it, therefore it's new.
