Chris Plays Divine Divinity : Part 1June 12th, 2009
Divine Divinity is an RPG that was released for PC back in 2002. It’s one of my favourite RPGs, and you can do some fun stuff in it, so I have decided to play through it and post some of my progress and the things I get up to here. I’ve played through it a few times already, so this will be more of a playthrough where I mess around and experiment with things.
Character Choice and First Moves
I chose the Survivor class, mainly because I’ve already played through as a Warrior and I can’t be bothered just using magic as a Mage. I put it on hard mode, and chose the incredibly fantasy RPG like name of Chris.
In the room you wake up in, there’s some shoes and a knife, both of random quality. After taking them, I went over to the chest, and found some handy gold. One of the nice features of DivDiv is the ability to pick up virtually anything. So, taking advantage of this for a future plan, I took the chest as well.
I then went upstairs and had a chat with Joram, who I was nice to as always. Then I took all of the things in his house, including books and manuscripts. He did say I could take what I wanted! I also picked up another chest, which should come in handy. Here’s my stuff at this point.
After leaving Joram’s house, I headed north to my new base. It was filled with packages, which I removed. I then went inside and dumped my chests, filling one of them with the books that I picked up earlier. I’ll store everything miscellaneous in here. The other chest will be used for weapons and everything else ( until I get some more chests ).
I then did the healing gem puzzle for some quick exp, and +1′d my lockpick skill. I’ll be working on this skill until its maxed for a plan I have later on. I then unfroze Lanilor, and turned all the dragon statues to the north to open the entrance to the catacombs. I then got the most useful item ever, the teleporter stone. I’ll be using that a lot in the future.
Well, thats then end of this part. Some fun with the teleporter next time.
