The PlayStation 4 edition of Divinity: Original Sin is looking better and better with every trailer; the highly praised role-playing release has been a big hit on PC, and we're beginning to see why. The way that the enhanced console port tackles co-op play is very forward thinking, as it essentially allows two players to exist in the same world without hindering each other's progress.
When you're close together during local play, the screen stays centred on your characters, but if you split up, it'll chop itself in two. This means that both players can go about their business without having to worry what their partner's up to, and things get better still when quests demand moral choices and you're both off following separate narrative paths. It arguably appears to be co-op role-playing at its most inventive.
Take a look at the title's newest trailer to get the full run-down, and then tell us if you'll be recruiting a buddy this October in the comments section below.

Oh hell yeah. Cannot wait for this!
Is this a button masher like Diablo 3?
@kyleforrester87 Agreed
@Expa0 Nope, as I gather more akin to baldurs gate/icewind dale/neverwinter nights and the like, I think the battle system is somewhat turn based as apposed to the ability to pause the action, though. I have not actually played it myself but I've been looking forward to the console release.
I bought this for PC, but my terrible computer couldn't run it. The little I did play was fantastic, though, and I'm very very very keen to give it another look.
This looks like a game I would love, can't wait!
So how do I choose between getting this and Wasteland 2? Both release at the same time, madness!
Yep. Been on the to-get list for a whole now. Mind you My wall of shame is big enough that I saw Jon snow at the top of it, so I may wait for a sale.
Such a good game, look forward to buying yet another copy of it.
A little like sacred i loved that except for the game breaking bugs that is.
Knew nothing of this game until this thread. Cheers guys, gonna keep an eye out for this now, it seems right up my street.
Yeah I'm all about some old school RPG action. Me and my buddy will play this together. Can't wait.
love such games - for the coop of course ^^ depends on the price but I just love such games
