Knight: A straightforward melee combatant, the Knight is capable of protecting the frontlines. Aside from being able to close in for the kill (Battering Ram), they can incapacitate opponents from both close range (Crippling Blow) and mid-range (Battle Sto

This sheer level of detail and realism implies that the impact of life is as huge as life itself is fickle. Theoretically, a player's choice of saving or leaving an NPC to their death can lead them to an ending that surprises them. However, players who try to kill everyone "for the lulz" may end up wasting their playthrough. After all, this route will simply lead to an unsatisfactory ending because of the absence of all major players in the narrat

Divinity: Original Sin 2 is a great classic RPG with an elegant cause-and-effect system. The choices players make determine the outcomes of various storylines. So it is not hard to make a decision that will come back negatively during a first proper playthrough. The SLG game Missions doesn't tell players what the consequences of their actions might be. Moreover, there is little foreshadowing as to those consequences, as w

In a departure from the first game where the player assumed the role of a Source Hunter to rid the world of the forbidden magic known as Source, we are now taking on the role of a Sourcerer. Taking place 1000 years after the events of its predecessor, the story begins with the player being held prisoner in Fort Joy, a misnomer if there ever was one. The Divine is dead and the Void is expanding, which will eventually consume this godless world if it remains unchallenged. Sourcerers are taking the blame for this turn of events, with the player being the main target for the Magisters of the Divine Order's witch hunt. Fort Joy is where you were sent to be "cured" of your powers. While the specific method of "curing" is not spelled out in detail, the self preservation instinct kicks in to send the message the only objective for now is to get the hell out of Fort Joy.

It’s true, anywhere in the environment you have the ability to jump to the waypoints you have access to. This fast travel method will save you a ton of time and can be a real-life saver if your party is in bad sh

In a game where most of the story is told through the environment, Hollow Knight does a fantastic job. The environments are complex and puzzling at times, forcing the player to try to navigate the labyrinthian catacombs of a buried city to unfold the stories buried within it. Hollow Knight delivers a beautiful and serene experience with a complex and interesting narrative, all captured through phenomenal artwork that is truly uni

Cleric: Proving that healers can pack some punch, the Cleric is a decent close-ranged support unit. Aside from standard healing (Restoration), they have a neat lifesteal (Blood Sucker) and an extra close-range damage option (Decaying Tou

Who doesn't want to avoid fights, right? Thankfully, there's almost always a way to avoid fights in Original Sin 2 unless it's an in-story battle. However, characters with good Persuasion could talk their way out of angry NPCs. Even better, a high-enough Persuasion could theoretically skip the last boss fight altoget

In fact, it’s possible to have your roguish character stand on the sidelines at the beginning of the fight and then have that character pick everyone’s pockets in one turn before joining the fight. In addition to the added loot and fattening your gold reserves, this can rob enemies of useful potions and arr

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice does something that not many video games have accomplished, by putting the player in the shoes of someone fighting psychosis. Ninja Theory’s brutal third-person RPG combines Norse mythology with a combat system that is both challenging and brutally punish

Granted, the waypoints may not always be located exactly where you want to go, but odds are there’s one that’ll get you closer. There’s no cost to traveling this way and it saves quite a bit of travel

That being said there are some things about the game that can be annoying and you may miss out on useful features that can make your character’s quest so much easier. Whether it’s useful mechanics, quality of life tools, or some hidden features, here is what you should probably know before start

The writing in Divinity: Original Sin 2 rarely shows any faults, with characters interacting naturally with each other and forming great bonds that can stand the test of time and then some. However, not all characters in the game are romanceable... but there are still many options that players can opt for if they wish to share a night of passion before the final chapter of the g

Duck Duck Goose (req. Huntsman 1): This Talent lets a character evade Opportunity Attacks. Despite the short description, this Talent works wonders especially against melee enemies who most likely have the Opportunist Tal
