Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition is an enhanced version of what was already a monumental RPG. With this release on home consoles, everybody now has the chance to enjoy what is one of the generation's best games. It does so many things that other RPGs do not, allowing more freedom to explore, fight, and build a character on the player's terms. The story here is neither revolutionary nor the best one seen in this genre. However, it is what is around the story that makes it such a compelling experience. An incredibly interesting battle system, great dialogue and general narrative development launch the title into the top tier. The fully voiced characters are the cherry on the cake. This is a AAA-level experience with a 60 hour adventure created using indie money, and that is one of the biggest compliments you can give to a developer and a game.
Brings the incredibly fun PC-style RPG experience to your console: co-op, physics, and bugs intact.
Quirky, fun and with a tight focus on player freedom, Divinity: Original Sin stands out as one of the more interesting RPGs, even if it lacks the story to match.
Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition is a fantastic example of developers going out of their way to ensure that a PC game is specifically tailored to work on consoles. It's also a great way to introduce console players to a challenging style of game they might not normally play. Perhaps the only real sin pertaining to this game is the sin of sloth, because there's so much content that hardcore players will likely sit on their couch and play until they're dragged outside.
Divinity: Original Sin makes its way to consoles with an impressive level of quality, a decent graphical overhaul, and a fantastic co-op gameplay experience.
Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition is a very well constructed, and beautifully made RPG. It isn't for the faint hearted; knowledge of how RPG's work, and a lot of time, is needed to understand and get to grips with the game. While being challenging, it offers plenty of action to those who wish to immerse themselves in a rich and quest filled world.
Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition takes a difficult but excellent old school RPG and improves it in almost every conceivable way. A treat for all existing owners of the PC original and an absolute must for RPG lovers who only have access to a console. A must buy!
As a sprawling, old-school RPG rife with possibilities, Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition is a taxing lesson in patience that has tons to offer fans of the genre, though newcomers may struggle to grip its sheer complexity.
This. Game. Is. Astounding. Go. Buy. It. Oh I suppose you'll expect some kind of proper conclusion. Divinity is packed with enough content to keep you going well above the seventy hour mark, and enough choices and outcomes in every situation to make you want to start a new game the minute the credits begin rolling.
I liked Divinity Original Sin. It was one of my all time favorite classic-styled RPGs. The Enhanced Edition is simply more of what I loved from the original version of the game, and definitely holds up to my original love for the game. I can wholeheartedly recommend any and all console gamers to pick up this wonderful title if you haven't played it already.
Divinity: Original Sin knows when to be whimsical, and when to take its strategic gameplay seriously. The trade-offs can be heavy. The penalties are stiff. The payoffs feel great. Old school role-playing game fans: There's a lot here for you to take in. It'll often fascinate and it'll occasionally frustrate. Getting into Original Sin's groove is a great niche to find yourself in. This Enhanced Edition on PS4 is indeed better in many, many ways.
Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition will be loved by hardcore RPG fans who enjoy Baldur's Gate and the original Diablo titles. Fans of new RPGs and Diablo 3 will be turned off by an overabundance of menus and UI issues and cumbersome inventory management. However, if players can look past the gameplay flaws there is a great story being told and the characters are all interesting and have their own stories and motivations.
Enhanced Edition brings a breath of fresh air into the Original Sin experience in a great way.
Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition offers a well-written story, in-depth character development and tactical combat that will be more than enough to please most tactical fans.
Overall my experience of the game was good and a lot of the systems in play were excellently integrated, but I found myself wanting something different out of the game and that itch just wasn't scratched.
A more well-rounded story and improvements to both combat combat mechanics and environment interaction makes Divinity: Oricinal Sin – Enhanced Edition the definitive version of Larian’s RPG.

An outstanding game gets bigger and better, adding massive new features; simply put, it's a must have for RPG fans.
Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition is much more than a simple PC to console port, as there are also 1000+ changes to the game. The basic framework of the game is similar, but the game is vastly different now than when it was initially reviewed in 2014. I should note that all of the content updates and changes that exist in the PS4 version of the game have been added to the PC version via an update.
Is it worth returning if you already played last year's Original Sin? I think so. Even a year on, Divinity is still one of the best roleplaying experiences of the decade, particularly if you enjoy the old school stylings of a pulled back camera and heavy dialogue. There are some strange design "improvements" that will hopefully become optional in future updates, but overall this version of Divinity is a stellar improvement on an already excellent game.
