Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition rewards careful exploration and tactical preparation, but completion involves more than winning its last battle. Dialogue choices and quest outcomes can matter much earlier. Use ordinary milestone saves where your mode permits them, learn combat before choosing Honour, and finish outstanding business before the First Garden's one-way portal.

QUICK ANSWER

Is Honour a sensible first-playthrough choice?

Only if you deliberately want its single-save, run-ending risk and harder encounters. The completion trophy requires it, but that does not make it the best learning mode. Normal save advice does not transfer unchanged to Honour.

SPOILER-LIGHT PLANNING

Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition: spoiler-light preparation

4 priorities

Decide whether you are learning the campaign or pursuing Honour before following a completion route. Conversation outcomes need planning well before the final portal.

Choose the campaign mode deliberately

Explorer and Classic are learning options; Tactician and Honour are serious commitments. Honour's restricted saving makes a blind trophy attempt very different from a normal role-playing run.

Check missables before resolving quests

Traits, companion stories and small dialogue outcomes can affect trophies. A spoiler-light missable checklist is more useful early than a complete walkthrough opened at the final boss.

Keep a First Garden milestone

The portal into the First Garden is a one-way departure. Finish shopping, companion quests and outstanding region business first; ordinary campaign revisits do not imply finale access is reversible.

Use the correct game's advice

Enhanced Edition changes the first Original Sin. Do not import Original Sin 2's armour, Source-point or act-departure rules into this campaign.

Content reviewed 2026-11-07. Original Sin 1 Enhanced Edition, not Original Sin 2 or the original non-Enhanced release. Trophy roadmap establishes many missables, Honour/Tactician requirements and single-save risk. First Garden is a one-way finale; ordinary region revisits must not be confused with Original Sin 2 act closures. Honour and ordinary saves/difficulty flexibility differ.

PLAYTHROUGH PLAN

Before You Start checklist

5 practical checks
  • Set up your save plan

    Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition's save options vary by mode or platform, so confirm the active system before committing to a long session.

  • Protect the completion route

    Missable content exists in Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition. Recheck quests, collectibles or companion tasks before advancing major story milestones.

  • Know the last safe checkpoint

    Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition has a point of no return. Clear priority side content before its commitment; do not assume an autosave or restricted save system can restore an earlier state.

  • Choose difficulty deliberately

    Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition has difficulty-linked achievements or trophies, so choose your target before starting and avoid changes that invalidate it.

  • Budget 100–150h+ base trophy-completion estimate

    Use Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition's 100–150h+ base trophy-completion estimate estimate as a planning range, not a promise. Exploration, difficulty and optional goals can move the total substantially.

Spoiler-free warning

Enhanced Edition has many conversation and quest missables. Save before the one-way First Garden portal. Honour uses a restricted single-save structure and can end your run on defeat; do not assume normal multi-slot saves or a later difficulty reduction. This is Original Sin 1, not Original Sin 2.

BEGINNER GUIDE

10 things I wish I knew before starting

Spoiler-light · Source-checked

The useful systems, early mistakes and easily missed details worth understanding before you commit dozens of hours.

  1. Learn surfaces before combining them

    Fire, poison, water and electricity interact with terrain and characters. Look around the battlefield before casting so your impressive combination does not disable your own front line.

  2. Spend action points with a plan

    Movement, attacks and spells compete for action points. Check range before walking forward; using too much movement can leave a character exposed without enough points for the intended skill.

  3. Spread utility abilities

    Give different party members complementary utility jobs such as identifying, trading and crafting. Duplicating every noncombat investment makes exploration less flexible than a coordinated party.

  4. Investigate Cyseal before roaming

    The city contains early experience, companions and leads that prepare you for the surrounding wilderness. If an outside encounter feels impossible, check local unfinished work before forcing it.

  5. Read both protagonists' responses

    Your two Source Hunters can disagree in conversations, and personality traits have consequences. Choose deliberately instead of treating the second answer as a disposable repeat of the first.

  6. Separate characters for positioning

    Use party linking and individual movement to arrange safer approaches. Sending the entire group through a trap or onto one hazardous surface can turn a minor mistake into a full-party emergency.

  7. Carry recovery supplies

    Keep resurrection and healing resources distributed rather than all on the person most likely to fall. A surviving character needs a practical way to recover the others after a bad exchange.

  8. Inspect enemy level and resistance

    A nearby enemy is not automatically the next intended fight. Check its level and elemental strengths, then explore a different route or change damage types when the matchup is poor.

  9. Use the pyramids deliberately

    Teleporter Pyramids can simplify regrouping and exploration once acquired, but they are not a universal escape from scripted finale areas. Read travel warnings before relying on them.

  10. Keep dialogue saves in ordinary modes

    Where your difficulty permits multiple files, save before important companion conversations and quest resolutions. Honour's single-slot rules require a different level of preparation and risk tolerance.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Divinity: Original Sin Enhanced Edition FAQs

5 source-checked answers
Does Enhanced Edition have New Game Plus?

No conventional NG+ carries your party into a fresh campaign. A new game is a new run, so keep your existing character files if you want to revisit them.

Can I lower the difficulty whenever I like?

Do not assume so. Difficulty flexibility is mode-dependent, and Tactician/Honour are not ordinary settings to escape from midway through a difficult campaign.

Why is manual saving marked as variable?

Ordinary modes allow multiple saves, while Honour uses a restricted single-save structure with run-ending defeat risk. Treat those as different campaign rules.

Is there a point of no return?

Yes. The First Garden portal is a one-way transition into the finale. Complete unfinished quests and preparations before entering, not after the ending.

Are difficulty trophies required for full completion?

Yes. The trophy list includes Tactician and Honour completion. Honour satisfies the lower difficulty requirement, but its risk makes repeated attempts potentially substantial.
