I bought this game back in 2003 from Amazon to try to replace my addiction for Diablo II (which I had played for over a year and was growing tired of). I put the game away and never played it. Just recently I stumbled accross it and decided to give it a try. I was pleasantly surprised by how much fun it is and how addictive it is. Beautiful 2D graphics (much better than DII) that really show an attention to detail by someone, fun gameplay, a bit of brains and humor in the story and a great musical score. All in all, it's like Diablo crossed with Morrowind. And I love it. It's hard to believe it didn't get more attention considering how great it is. If you don't mind the dated graphics do yourself a favor and buy this game. It's a great single player RPG.

I found this game by accident at Target recently for only $10. Thinking this game sucked, I went home and checked out online. It looked interesting, so I took a chance and picked it up. It has now become an obsession and I play it constantly. This game is old, no doubt about it, but I believe this is one of THE best action/RPG games I have played, and I have played them all. Diablo, Baldur's gate (console version) Sacred, Titan Quest, and many others you probably never heard of can't touch this one. I love this game and can't think of anything bad to say about it. Sure, there are a few problems like some minor bugs, but they mostly have been fixed with a patch, and they definitely do not detract from the overall experience. For $10, BUY THIS GAME NOW!!!

If you took the over-all action and skill advancement of Diablo...
added Ultima's stilted view, inventory management, and ability to combine ingredients...
and further added Morrowind's expansive, interactive world with the ability to move, or pick up just about anything in sight...
you would have Divine Divinity.

After playing DivDiv, other RPGs seem very static, and confining in terms of player character freedom, and interactions with the game world. Even today, I've yet to see anything come close.

This is a timeless classic, and should be at the top of any RPG fan's list.

This game has unbelievably gorgeous 2D graphics. The attention to detail is awesome. Special effects sparkle and glitter everywhere. The soundtrack also is magnificent. But other than the graphics and the soundtrack, much of this game is CRPG by numbers, something like a beautified and simplified version of the Baldur's Gate series. Multiplayer game fans may be disappointed that Divine Divinity is for solo play only. Lastly, I have to warn you that playing this addictive game from start to the finish is an accomplishment that may take up to 100 hours of your good time.

Although there really isn't anything new here that we've all seen and done before, I'll tell you what is here...fun. This game became almost instantly addicting.. and as for me-( and I am sure for others who have played these types about a million times over)that's a hard element to find in today's latest and (greatest??) hack-n slashers. Yes this game is quite a few years old,(Is there REALLY an *EXPIRATION DATE* on FUN?? This title does not fail to entertain and it does have a few unique additions to it that makes it stand out amongst the vast sea of this genre. In my opinion, alot better than 'Dungeon Siege 1'( which till this day i have not finished due to the fact that it's (STORYLINE+EXTREME BORDEM) induces sleeping and ocassional nodding-off), this one i stayed awake for for the sheer fact that there is a story in here-not deep, but yet, it's in there. 5STARS OVER-ALL. Recommended.-holyknight7- F.Y.I-If you purchase this game, make sure you email the(seller) you've picked to purchase from and ask if it's the (North American Version), as there is an import version that will not install correctly on most machines. You'll know if your copy is an import if your disks are (RED AND BLACK). If they are (Orange), it's the (NORTH AMERICAN) version. Thought I'd pass that little tid-bit along. The import has a real problem installing (especially on systems with AMD CPU's)and most (Intel's) with updated drivers. I know, i own both copies of the game and take a (wild guess) which one i purchased first.
