Divinity Divinity: Original Sin - Enhanced Edition

[V_K]

I might remember things incorrectly but if my memory serves me right this is basically the only game (at least recent, of the ones I've played (I must confess that I haven't played the gold box era games)) where for example rain makes puddles which you can then electrify, something that have always bothered me about magic in other games: no environmental effects (or whatever it's called).

Voidspire Tactics has environmental interactions as well (I strongly suspect it was directly inspired by DOS). It even arguably takes them a bit further because they are also used for some slight puzzles. Despite the name, it's also a very open-ended game with a strong focus on exploration, a ton of secrets and alternative non-combat solutions.

D:OS is one of a kind, though I suppose you might also like Underrail

It is my understanding that you should be suspicious of parrots on this site so I searched for your posts on Underrail and it seems I was correct (at least on this occasion).

Both of those games looks somewhat interesting to me (Underrail I had naturally already heard about, being a long time lurker here) unfortunately neither of them have a Linux client and I hate everything windows with a passion (wasn't that long ago that I decided to drop windows permanently though, but I've thought about it basically the entire time I've been lurking here) so I only support developers that release their games for Linux as well (no, fuck wine) but if that ever happens then I might get it/them.

(also I realised that I lied before, I actually bought NuXCOM too, but that was like 5$ on steam when I bought it so..)

If that were to happen, I would take that as a win.

if anything, parrots are the only thing on this forum that you can trust

Spike Chunsoft handled the localization and publishing. (It's a PS4 only release btw.)

With the right marketing I think D:OS could do pretty well in Japan.

The lack of prominent teenage characters will be a problem for them.

 

[Excidium II]

Worked for Geralto-san.

 

[Kem0sabe]

Geralt is close to being an anime character himself, lone Ronin wandering the wastes, killing monsters and fucking witches on top of stuffed unicorns... It's practically made for Japan .

Don't forget the white hair.

With Larian's artstyle and PC leanings they'd have an easier time selling on China.

Just need to install this mod: http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/951/ and it's done.

Why does he have eye shadow in this image?

Spoiler

 

[Excidium II]

For extra brooding.

 

[Delterius]

Eye shadow is a natural occurrence in the faces of white haired protagonists.

Wapanese voice acting is way better than the English, Geralt sounds like a Yakuza boss.

What stopped them from releasing other version in Japanese?

It was said on the official or steam forum (can't remember) that they didn't translate the PC specific UI information for M&KB. So it seems clear that the publisher didn't think it would move many units on PC in Japan.

Well, based on SteamSpy data, about 8-9K Japanese gamers already have D:OS EE on Steam. I guess it's significant for this kind of game and the PC games market in Japan. (And apparently there's also a Japanese fan translation patch for PC version.) So Spike Chunsoft did not bother.

D:OS sold 6,179 physical copies first week in Japan: http://www.4gamer.net/games/117/G011794/20160420058/

At least Amazon reviews seems favorable: http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B01BGLE88G

Does anyone know any workaround for camera rotation bug (very low sensivity, barely noticeable reaction to even very broad swipes) on Linux systems?
This issue alone makes me judge port quality as shoddy.

Yeah, get windows.

I have windows on my old box.
