OK, so I mentioned the Morrowind comparison, and it's not an obvious connection I know, but let me explain. In the Baldur's Gate games, moving from one area to the next involved plenty of loading, but in Div Div you walk pretty much everywhere seamlessly, unless blocked by the landscape. There are a few tricks built in to help you move around a bit quicker, such as a pair of small teleportation pyramids - one of which you drop and one you keep in your inventory - that allow you to transport yourself quickly between two locations.
There are also transportation portals scattered around the land, which you can activate when you've found the right scroll. In my time spent playing Div Div, I found only one edge to the map. Each of Div Div's six possible characters, as well as having their own initial class-based skill sneak, whirlwind attack and swap location , also has a tailored set of skills known as The Way of the Warrior, The Way of the Mage and The Way of the Survivor. Each of these is broken down into four different trees in a similar way to Diablo II.
Although your chosen character will be able to access the various passive, offensive and defensive skills which they specialise in the quickest, they will also be able to take on some of the skills and spells from the other two paths, although somewhat more slowly.
This basically means the list of possible character profiles is virtually endless, as you can mix and match a host of skills from different skill trees. One of the areas I was worried about Div Div falling down on was the general script and voice-overs. And although the voices of the main characters have a rather annoying American twang to them, the narrative - both written and spoken - is thankfully very good.
In fact, if you thought that the storyline in Neverwinter Nights was less hardcore than the normal Bioware fare, then you might well find just what you're looking for in Div Div.
There are also some nice little touches throughout the game, such as two resurrected skeletons musing about why exactly they can move and talk without muscles or vocal cords, which eventually leads them to fall apart through excess existential thought.
It may not be high comedy, but it certainly raises a smile, which is rare in the slightly sombre, serious world of role-playing.
Along with that, there are the everyday problems of the locals, such as cattle rustling, demonic possession and suspicious men wandering around in big hats.
The game is also littered with manuscripts, letters and books, which can hold vital clues for your quest, information on the land, helpful advice, or similar scribbled rantings Character images change depending on what gear they're wearing, and monsters are well done, but spell effects and lighting really show off the graphics engine the best.
Divine Divinity is not without its technical glitches. The majority of them are merely annoying, but Divine Divinity did crash to the desktop without warning on a few occasions, and quick save didn't always work, either. The game doesn't always acknowledge when you're no longer encumbered, such as when you would eat a couple of hunks of meat or swallow potions.
You can fix this by moving something around in your inventory, but it's a rather bothersome problem until you learn this. Probably the worst bug next to the occasional crash was the drop in frame rates that occurred in Verdistis and to a lesser extent, the Dark Forest. Whenever the character left an inside area for the outdoor areas of Verdistis, the game would slow to a crawl for a few seconds before resuming its normal speed.
It also happened at times without having to go inside a building first. This never happened in the main map, so this sudden change was confusing. In the end, however, the bugs were rarely more than a minor bother, and Divine Divinity is such a terrific experience, reminiscent of the roleplaying games of old, that hours upon hours would pass with no knowledge of the passage of time.
If you like the idea of playing a roleplaying game that gives you such an incredible amount of freedom to do what you want when you want it, you'll want to rush out and buy the game right away.
