They'll also help the base PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the game achieve 1080p30 performance even during split-screen play. These improvements will not be bound to console, of course, but available as a free update for existing owners of DOS2 on PC. It's a similar story for many of the game's 'surfaces', and textures have been improved as well. The fire effect, for example - which spreads across a lot of environments a lot of the time - has been changed for one more economical and arguably better looking too. The physics engine has been changed for the Definitive Edition and numerous improvements have been made, making the game up to four times faster in certain areas. The reasons for the differences run deeper than hardware. It was smoother and more responsive too, and will apparently run native 4K30 on Xbox One X, and dynamic checkerboard 4K30 on PS4 Pro. The Xbox One X version, running in 4K resolution and with high dynamic range enabled, was brighter, crisper and more vibrant. It wasn't a Digital Foundry-style controlled test, with the laptop fans wheezing and picture coming through an older 1080p screen, but it got the point across. On one screen we had DOS2 as it exists now, played on a gaming laptop and on the other screen we had the Definitive Edition of DOS2 played on an Xbox One X dev kit. To do this the developer ran two versions of the game - old and new - side by side to highlight the differences. Again, for this one to work, you’ll need to install another mod too - in this case, Helaene - Shared Library, which is required to run all of creator Helaene’s class mods.Larian visited the Eurogamer office to show me the new and improved Definitive Edition of Divinity: Original Sin 2 last week. Weirdly, you can even impale your enemies with wooden stakes, which must feel pretty cathartic for your average bloodsucker. Just make sure you grab OdinCore - Mod Services too and set it to load first - this package is required to run the Spectre, as well as creator Odinblade’s many other excellent class mods.Īnd if that’s not sinister enough for you, why not try the Vampire? This class’s gorily creative spells will turn you into a walking horror movie, letting you summon swarms of bats, hypnotise foes, vomit up torrents of cursed blood, and more. And it even introduces a new weapon type to the game, scythes, for the complete Grim Reaper experience. If you fancy a walk on the dark side, it’s the perfect pick - when your main source of damage is stacking ‘Agony’ on foes, you know you’re not one of the goodies. One of our favourites is the Spectre, a soul-draining wizard who cripples foes with dark curses and damage-over-time effects.
These can really make your latest playthrough feel fresh, by introducing a suite of custom spells, abilities, and mechanics to either dedicate your character to, or mix and match with other builds. One of the coolest things mods can add to the game is whole new classes.
