        It‘s not even remotely as gory as that cinematic trailer and the humor only has gotten darker with the Original Sin games later. Even then they didn‘t have remotely as much gore at any point. I‘m honestly a little baffled. It looks too me they‘re trying to replicate Diablo more than making another faithful Divinity game.

          As I remember it divine divinity (divinity 1) was way more dark than anything I saw at DOS 1 and 2. There’s a freaking orc village where they have pits of raped humans. The amount of gore and dark moments are only obscured by the low graphics.

          I don’t get how you see the OS games as darker than the originals.

          Divine divinity was released 2 years after Diablo 1, the theme and gore was on par with it, I’d say that this trailer fits with how I remember the original.

        Ego Draconis or Original Sin 2? I’m not a diehard fan or anything, but I know some people online like to make the distinction known.

        I’ve only really played Ego Draconis (Divinity 2), but I’ve played the tutorial of Original Sin 2.
