![]() ![]() And some might say is the advantage that pen and paper RPGs have over video game RPGs is the limitless frame-rate and possibilities of the imaginationnn. Which, of course is the advantage of having a GM there in the first place. ![]() And that seems to be a repeating theme here–the ability to go off-script and try to do things outside of the game’s limitations. In the video they mention throwing explosive barrels down a well, despite it not being an option available to them. The view from the GM’s screen (hah I see what they did there) lets you go as deep into the game as having monsters hurl flower pots at your foes in-game.Įven more exciting is the apparent ability to create vignettes/dialogue choices on the fly.īut more than that, you can even go in and edit the options you’re presented with.

Not only is there a game master mode, but Larian Studios have also teamed up with Wizards (at least in part) to create the Lost Mine of Phandelver in D: OS2’s engine.

For those of you not familiar with it, Divinity: Original Sin is a modern homage to classic RPGs.

Check out Divinity: Original Sin 2’s game master mode, coming soon to a PC near you.
