Divine Divinity – RPG of my childhood. [Finally designed (and rewrote).]

Once upon a time I saw a post about Nox, RPG childhood of the author. So I remembered that my childhood was spent not only for the second Diablo, but also for another game, which, perhaps, is even better. And this game is Divine Divinity.

“Divine Divinity (the birth of a legend) is a computer game in the RPG genre created by the Larian studio back in 2002.

The game takes place in the fantasy world of Rivelon. The background of the game tells how the lord of Chaos, the powerful demon, penetrating the world of people with the help of magicians that make up the dark circle, and taking the guise of man, together with the army of demons began the war against the inhabitants of Rivellon. However, the council of six races, collected by the peoples inhabiting Rivelon, found a way to kill the lord of chaos with the help of a rare spell of self -sacrifice. After the victory over the army of demons in the hands of people was a blade of lies – a weapon created by the lord of chaos and allowing him to revive, using the soul of a man who owns this sword. The young man who picked up a blade of lies on the battlefield immediately after the defeat of the lord of Chaos was sacrificed, allowing himself to be piercing himself in the basement of a storm castle, the residence of the dukes of the Ferols, the rulers of people. The plot line of the game begins a few decades after the end of the war with the lord of Chaos, when these events have already become history, and the blade of lies is considered lost.”

Initially, the game was generally called Divinity: Sword of Lies

I just trudge from this monster.

A rather symbolic name, if you proceed from the plot of the game. But the Belgians decided to change the name that we know now.

I still remembered how this game came to me. temple slots casino They gave me a disk with games. Well, a regular pirate disk, with a bunch of playing, Chinese packaging and description on toilet Paper. Well, as always, I started installing all the games from it at once. And one of them was this very Divine Divinity. But the year 2005 was in the yard, the game was still officially in Russia ^^ This was the only one of the disk games that really pulled me. I was interested in exploring this world. And the fourth game to incredible.

It can be described as Diablo with the plot. Yes, there is a very good plot worthy of the book (although in some way the books were written on Diablo, but it is not important). We all also transferred monsters to experience (at the first level, urban rabbits ^^ acted as a source of experience), knocked out tons of Luta, recognized the centers of things, inserted pebbles into them, in general, almost all of this, only a little differently we saw in the game of northern snowstorms.

But on the other hand, at the same time, we simultaneously rescued the ass of a cowardly knight, which the mysterious killer hunted for, examined the cemetery in which they forgot something stubbornly something discussing the type, conducted some detective studies (which could be solved non-linearly), talked with well-read undenamouses, etc.D., What was not in Diablo, and it could not be (and the 3rd part did not solve the problem, ah qi). And saved the world from universal evil caused by the insidiousAnd fagots Black ring (evil guys, very angry).

We also walked around the huge world, a populated family (main, and if you count all kinds of trolls and t.d, then even more) races (gnomes, people, magicians (yes, a separate race), lizards, demons, orcs, gnomes), listened to excellent music (how beautiful it was … You could just sit on the main menu and just listen.), enjoyed subtle humor (this moment when 2 skeletons broke up due to the awareness of the impossibility of their own existence … at one time laughed until you drop) ..
By the way, there was practically no division into classes in the game

. The only difference between the classes is the appearance and initial skills (and those 2, and that is noteworthy, they were different for female and male). And so you could calmly go out a caste fireball, a magician, digging a master key in the castle, stealing things from pockets and putting deadly traps and a thief that takes everything around with an enchanted two -handed manner.

The plot was well served. In addition, they were very unexpected, but what pleases, to the place, plot turns (whether it is the murder of one of the chosen ones (and you are not alone, yes) almost immediately after his location, the sudden appearance of a black ring in the key moment of the game, etc.D.), very funny side quests, a good history of the world … And the backstory for the plot (which was a separate PDF file walking with the game), was simply beautiful, both in terms of the plot and writing.

In general, this game was, and for me it remains one of the best RPG.
So the question is: did you play this game? If so, if you liked it and what? And if not, take your money and go to Steam, where this masterpiece is sold. So you support the developers who are now engaged in two more games of the series (one of them is a prequel with a cooperative for two and a step -by -step battle system, the other is a strategy/RPG almost entirely about dragons).

The best comments

Well, I’m just not sure that everyone knows this game about this game. I don’t know what I definitely wanted to achieve. Rather, just describe some advantages of the game, so that someone ignorant is interested, then downloaded/bought and communed in the world of the game, etc.D.

Oh, I remembered the successful interweaving of a non -banal humor with a gloomy atmosphere, cool quests and Easter shoes, and in general everyone, I can’t convey in words the class and that’s it, this must be seen, this must be seen! Best RPG series for me duck.

Yes, I would be happy. But the limit does not allow the Internet 🙁 I tried to download the picture at 200-250 KB, so I managed to drink tea, but it has not yet loaded

Rather because of the second part. But it is unlikely that many people who played in the second part, at least touched the first.

Great game. I have not played for a long time, but I remember that I really liked the quests and good humor, which manifested itself in everything: in dialogs, and in emerging situations, and in various descriptions.

1 diviniti really liked, almost everyone, there were places where I did not understand what to do, but about 2 parts … I did not interest at all

Nope. Unlimited Internet from the phone from MTS. I have 5 MB burning even before I go on the site normally. And then the speed in the lamp falls.
