Our take on Divinity II: Developer's Cut
The bounce point arrives when moral choices and character skills begin affecting quest objectives. Players who prefer missions with fixed outcomes may hit a wall there, before the additional systems involving the Battle Tower, dragon form, or assembled combat creature become relevant.
