The first pieces of community-driven content are already underway and the patching and post-release support is fast, active and to-the-point. The way that Larian’s sequel embraces player creativity immediately. A sequel, Divinity: Original Sin II, was released in 2017. In addition to the astounding brilliance in gameplay just from the original campaign, Divinity:OS also offers a complete construction kit and encourages a vibrant modding community. Playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 is uncannily like playing a tabletop RPG. The game received acclaim from critics, with many praising its ability to modernize the RPG genre.
