Although the Divinity franchise has long had a strong following of players, stemming from the success of 2002's Divine Divinity , the series saw a triumphant return in 2014. Divinity: Original Sin , a prequel to the original game, received release due to the partial funding of Kickstarter backers, and long-term fans of the series who invested in the project were not disappointed. The brand new game fitted in well with the themes and world of the original series, and earned itself strong sales and award nominations in the process. As such, it was no surprise that the prequel was receiving a sequel of its own, in the form of Divinity: Original Sin

In Skyrim , you can find several followers in each of the holds, as well as most of the different factions that can be joined. Some of them might be less developed as characters than others, but at least you'll always have someone different and unique to follow you around during your adventures. You certainly won't get bo

The hammer gives +3 Strength, +1 Warfare, +1 Two-Handed and has a small chance of knocking down an enemy. When equipped, the character will also automatically learn the Onslaught skill, which is a quick attack of 5 strikes, each dealing 1-2 dam

While both titles have become legendary games for good reasons, those looking to buy or choose the next game they'll spend hours grinding might want to consider the pros and cons. Today, we're here to showcase 5 reasons why Divinity Original 2 is better than Skyrim , and 5 reasons why Skyrim still reigns supr

It's an obvious pro for Skyrim , but if you enjoy highly realistic games that present a nice three-dimensional world to roam in, Skyrim is the stronger and better game. There is the option to pick between a first or third-person perspective, depending on someone's playstyle, and players have access to almost all major areas on the

It's also a stark contrast to Skyrim , where you can just whack an enemy to death with a sword, or if you happen to have a decent aim, pelt them with arrows from a ledge that they can't access to. In that sense, Divinity: Original Sin 2 's combat is more balanced and challenging over

If there's one game that's bound to suck in all of your hours, it is without a doubt Skyrim . Even the base game provides so much to do, be it the main quest or the various interesting side quests, that you won't get bored for a while. If you do, though, the DLCs do an excellent job of introducing something new and fun to the g

It’s no surprise the Cuphead would make the list of best Indie Games this year. Developed by StudioMDHR, Cuphead is a love letter to challenging boss fights, drawn in the style of rubber hose cartoons of the 30

That said, Larian Studios has added some fun new elements to proceedings here, with a Curse and Blessing mechanic sometimes turning battles completely around. As one might suspect, cursing an object of the game world makes it a rather hazardous element to come across, with the potential to have nasty surprises such as carrying disease. Meanwhile, blessing an item or element of the game world can turn even objects that would normally damage a character into a healing buff. It's a nice touch, that swaps around the gameplay just enough to keep players guess

Developed by Australian studio Team Cherry, Hollow Knight takes players back to the classic Metroidvania style of games that many have come to love. This 2D platformer brings fun and engaging combat with a story just ambiguous enough to keep the player questioning the entire time, while also experiencing breathtaking art. The art design for Hollow Knight is something out of a storybook, if that book was designed by Tim Burton. The characters and creatures one encounters are adorable, yet slightly off-putt

Pyre feels truly new, which is really saying something. The world that Supergiant built is full of unique and fascinating characters. The choices that the player makes have an impact on the SLG game Money Guide and how the characters interact with the player and one another, like having a character shave their mustache and change the character design for the remainder of the game. Pyre is unlike anything else out there and is highly worth picking up, but don’t expect it to be anything like Supergiant’s previous ga

Fans of the RPG genre have tons of great games to choose from, but for the past years, Divinity: Original Sin 2 and Skyrim have absolutely dominated the scene. Both games introduce rich and vibrant medieval fantasy worlds where players can send their either custom or pre-made character i

Moreover, there is no need to have perfect knowledge about the stats of weapons, gear, and spells. Whatever feels good can be generally run, even on Adept difficulty. Divinity: Original Sin 2 requires a lot of research to find the right settings, the correct panels, and to simply understand how crafting wo

As for the blade itself, it does a bit of Air damage. It also gives +3 Memory and +6 Initiative. It has a small chance to Stun the enemy, as well as Shock them. Overall, it's a pretty nice one-handed sword, with a hint of magic in the mix
