What drives the score
How to read this
Every input gets a grade, S to D, read from the buyer's side. The score is multiplicative, so an input only counts as raising when it sits near the top of its own scale. Anything with real room left is holding the score back, because that room is the gap to 100. ▲ marks a lift, ▼ a drag or a dock, ? an input we do not have, • a fact this genre's score does not use. The exact weights stay secret.
The value story
June 2017 is where it bottomed out, at $1.99. Its cuts run 90 percent off as a rule. There have been 83 in the 14 years tracked, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price. The last sale was about 12 weeks ago, and on this game's rhythm the next one tends to arrive within 7 weeks.
Value puts it in the top 4 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 90 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 85 percent. Among the games that feel like it, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim ($19.99, scores 93) beats it on value, while it beats Dragon's Dogma 2 ($39.99, scores 9).
This site sampled 420 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 6 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written March 2020 to August 2026.

What players say
I love playing a game from 2012 that you pray to god doesn't crash when you try and start it!
started the game. saw the two game options. didnt know what the difference was.. alt+tabbed out to check.. game crashed! game seems to crash quite often when transitioning..good idea to save before then! and once again I 'fell for the mage trap'.. mages suck once again with these devs! you cast a spell then you cant cast another for around a minute! these devs are braindead morons! if I wanted to play a melee I...
this is larian's hidden gem. nobody who isn't crazy about divinity knows about about this game AT ALL, and its crazier still because this is probably the one and only rpg that lets shapeshift from human to dragon and vice versa. like really now, imagine: you are fighting a group of enemies (it doesn't really matter what enemies) near a cliff. you get really beat up, but then you rush attack an enemy, knocking it...
Player reviews from Steam: the most helpful all-time, plus the newest that clear the same quality bar, with the hours each player had put in when they wrote it. The mix of Recommended and Not recommended follows the game's Steam ratio. Rotates daily. Opinions are theirs.

Divinity II: Developer's Cut scores 70/100 on the BANG Score (worth it). The BANG Score rates what a game is worth for the money. Via Steam BANGERS. https://steambangers.com/game/219780/divinity-ii-developer-s-cutThe BANG Score is one number for value, 0 to 100: price against how it reviews and how long it was built to be. It answers the money question and stops there; whether the game is for you is still your call.
Reviews set the ceiling and price moves you inside it, so a cheap game that reviews badly cannot climb. Ratings from few reviewers are shrunk toward the middle, so 100 percent from nine people does not outrank 96 percent from ninety thousand. Length comes from HowLongToBeat where it can be matched, measured against a per-genre floor so a five-hour narrative game is judged against other narrative games rather than against a sixty-hour RPG. Where no verified length exists the score says so and carries a dock, because the biggest input is then a guess. The full method, including where it is weak → Steam reviews as of Jul 30, price as of Sep 24.
