On this moment the only other game, beside of The Dragon Knight Saga, I've an eye on is Gothic IV. Since you like these type of games, I think you should keep an eye out for Two Worlds II also. It looks very nice, they have improved on everything from the first game (which was needed), and critics all over seems happy with what they see. See the latest trailer on IGN: Link

The trailer looks very nice ! I keep an eye also on this game ... but first FoV, that will be sure. Than Two Worlds II and/or Gothic IV ... And can I buy also somewhere ... more-free-TIME-for-gaming?

I'd rather see Larian end this and start work on a new story that takes place some 50 or 100 years down the road where many things in the world can be changed and become totally new. This would be a very interesting thought, and parhaps something for the future. But : Since most (if not all) role-playing games evolve around "war" as the theme in which a "hero" develops, this is unlikely. Actually, I can't remember ANY role-playing gme without "war" as the major theme ! So, I tend to rather expect that Larian would rather exploit the recurring theme of War Aginst The Damned One even further. I believe, this war needs an epic conclusion ! Because there's still the Black Ring ... Apart from that : As I wrote above, I'd personally like something like Gothic 3, only in Rivellon. I' lik to see some pretty normal, not war-torn towns and enclaves, too. Something where the action stops at, something to rest in. So to say. But that ll is Larian's decision. All Divinity games have been rather action-oriented games in the past. And that, although they do know to do non-action game, too ...

Gothic III kinda sucks compared to Divinity II, even after all the fixes.

Okay, let's talk about the story. From gamestar.de review: Die Quests Getreu dem alten Rollenspielgesetz, dass es irgendwo immer noch einen mächtigeren Zauberer gibt, ist es Ihre Aufgabe in Flames of Vengeance, eben jenen tief in den Katakomben von Aleroth aufzuspüren. Der mächtige Zauberer verfügt nämlich über das Allheilmittel gegen Damian und seine fliegenden Festungen. AMAZING! I thought it is not possible to make the plot more lame and worse, but looks like Larian breaks all the limits here. WE. MUST.FIND.ANOTHER.POWERFUL.WIZARD.TO.DEFEAT.DAMIAN. ... My deus_ex_elements_in_game_plots-meter shows over9k value and dies. No wonder coz of such originality - SUDDENLY, a new powerful mage Behrlihn (LOOOOOOOL) appears and solves everything. It is fun how Larian make every new powerful mage for every new Divinity game (Zandalor -> Maxos -> Behrlihn). Soooo laaaame. Shame on your heads, Larian.
