This trailer was so wild that at some point there was actual fucking for like 3 seconds and my mind was like “ayoo they fucking,” then skulls started popping out of some cysts on a live mans burning sacrifice and my mind forgot so quickly there was literally just sex on the screen at the video game awards.
It was so wild that I didn’t even notice the sex until my second watch
This was played live during the game awards??
Yep. And it didn’t have the mature audience warning that the standalone video has currently on YouTube.
I still can’t believe that they were actually allowed to show that live on YouTube still. YouTube bans people for showing way less.
On the big screen on stage, yup
Live and in color.
EDIT: Didn’t even realize the trailer was the OP.
Ohh, so that’s why I was unable to watch it, YouTube wanted me to sign in, but fuck that.
Love the games, but they are awful at naming this series
I thought that’s too gruesome but then I saw it was Divinity and that’s about appropriate amount of violence for the series. I’m not sure if it’s the best way to market the game however.
I dont know, I felt like it was more fitting for Diablo. Watching this trailer I thought:
-
Wow I can’t believe they were actually allowed to show that on YouTube.
-
It seems like Larian is making a lot of changes with the tone of Divinity.
Its interesting, but was definitely not what I would personally expect from Divinity.
Divinity has always been pretty gruesome. Maybe the bad graphics shielded the viewer of the grim reality, but the reality was pretty freaking grim.
Please note that this is a continuation of the divinity series, not divinity original sin. The divinity series are much, much older games and play like an arpg, the look like Diablo 1.
Idk if they want to change it into turn based given their success in that field, though.
-
Idk, im definitely interested in it now. Can’t wait to see what type of game it is.
The game’s press kit has a few hints. Sounds like a similar RPG style as Larian’s last few games, the question is what kind of combat.
I’m curious too. Original Sin/OS2 are really tight turn based strategy games (with D:OS2 being the best game Larian has ever made IMO (sorry BG3 fans)), but Divinity II was an ARPG, and I would not mind seeing a Larian with actual resources trying their hand at it again.
D:OS2 being the best game Larian has ever made IMO (sorry BG3 fans)),
A person of culture with a bold and hot take. I respect it.
That was a wildddddddd trailer reveal.
Reminded me of the brutal quality of the older Diablo reveals
