Divine Divinity Preview

A fairly lengthy preview of Divine Divinity is up over at RPGDot today. Here’s a snippet:

Items can be combined also. You can throw some poison over a sword to make it do some poisonous damage. You can also make poison yourself, but to do that you need to have learned the proper skill. Once you’ve done that you only need to have an empty bottle and fill it with some rotten food to create the poison. On the other hand you can also create some healing potions by putting the correct herbs into the empty bottle. And if you have the proper skills you could even destroy a wooden crate and make a bow from the remains. So it is very important to know what you want to be, so that you can select the skills you want and use them the way you want as you can not learn all skills during the course of a game.
