As it happens, the list of what's new is exhausting and exciting. At E3 2015, I played Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition on the PlayStation 4 while speaking to Vincke at length about what this new version of Original Sin has in store for us. Of course, one of the things I adored about Divinity: Original Sin when it was first released on the PC was that it didn't just rely on old role-playing tropes: it introduced new mechanics that made the game feel as fresh as anything else appearing in the RPG space. Vincke and I understand each other we were playing games at a time when different terms were used and different styles were cultivated. The other reason this question struck me was that Vincke used the term 'CRPG'-that is, Computer RPG-instead of the more common 'Western RPG' moniker.
Cooperative action role-playing games are clearly represented on consoles, but split-screen play, and co-op outside of the Diablo-esque realm, are hardly common. This question from Larian Studios creative director Swen Vincke gave me pause, because honestly, I couldn't think of any. 'How many CRPGs on console can you think of that feature split-screen co-op?'
