Changing from docked to portable results in a softening of the image overall, and theres definitely less environment clutter.

Divinity 2 Switch Portable Results In![]() So color me surprised when Larian Studios announced the release of Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch last week. Upon initially hearing the news, I wondered what kind of cuts were necessary to get it running on the platform, like if it would be another Doom situation. Divinity: Original Sin 2 is an RPG in all capital letters; no hot, ignorant twentysomethings learning the secret history of the world and eventually fighting a vaguely Christian-themed end boss who expounds on moral philosophy. Instead, youre given a host of characters, races, skills, and spells at your disposal and thrown out into a majestic sandbox where you can chart your own path. But few RPGs offer the kind of player freedom found in Larians sequel. Mike WilliamsUSG, Larian Studios Probably the best new feature of Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition on Switch, the one that puts it ahead of its Xbox One and PS4 counterparts, is cross-save. Yes, if youve been playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 on PC, you can pull down your saves to the Switch and vice versa. It requires logging into your Steam account on the Switch, and then changing between platforms merely requires loading or saving after a Steam Cloud sync. First, only the Definitive Edition save transfers over, so if you were holding onto an original edition save, too bad. Second, while the saving, syncing, and picking up the game on a different platform worked well the first three times I tried it, on the fourth trying it wouldnt sync and gave me a visible Steam Error. I had to log in again on the Switch in order to fix the issue. You can literally be playing on PC, have to go somewhere and then sync up your Switch and keep playing portably. It makes Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition a game that goes with you wherever you want to go. Ive long fought for cross-saves for pretty much any game I play, as just because I start on PC or PS4, doesnt mean I might not want to carry my game to a different platform. Especially when you have me logging into your own user accountslooking at you Ubisoftyou should let me move my save data over. ![]() Switch portable, Switch docked, and PC Mike WilliamsUSG, Larian Studios On the graphics end, Divinity: Original Sin 2 on PC entry is a looker, full of beautiful environments to wander around in. Great textures, lighting, and object clutter combine to make some stunning vistas, like Bloodmoon Island, the Impish Pocket Realm, or the Heart of the Mother Tree. Its such a good-looking game that the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions had some pop-in at launch. Divinity 2 Switch 720P Native ResolutionThere are definite cuts here and there, bringing the entire game down to the 720p native resolution on the Switch. As such, the camera is much closer and tighter than it is on PC, PS4, or Xbox One. Changing from docked to portable results in a softening of the image overall, and theres definitely less environment clutter. ![]()
