Story
The story begins several years after its predecessor, Beyond Divinity, and the land of Rivellon has not fared well. After the apocalyptic wars of the previous games, the land lies fractured and shattered. And now the proud race of dragons has been corrupted by Damian, the child of chaos, in order to kill the Divine One. To defend the land, dragon slayers were trained to fight the dragons that plague the land, but the fight goes ill. You play a young dragon slayer initiate seeking to rid Rivellon of the dragon scourge, but you have been cursed with the ability to become that which you despise most -- a dragon.
Gameplay
As the cursed dragon slayer, you have the ability to fight as either human or dragon, including skills trees and weapons for both. The game also includes a complex quest system that includes quests that may be completed in multiple ways, each having its own consequences to the gameplay and storyline.

The game is played as a third-person Action RPG with the choice between either melee, ranged and magic attacks. Experience points are gained through quests and combat with players able to take on a variety of side missions. Upon finishing quests, in addition to the awarding of XP and gold, players can also choose an additional reward such as more XP or various items.
Mindreading also features, where in exchange for XP, you can attempt to read the mind of an NPC. This can reveal hidden secrets and information which can often lead to finding special items and other loot.
Armour and weapons can also be upgraded. Charms offer fixed and permanent improvements, while enchantments can be applied and removed as required, although the requisite enchantment formula is required to create it.
The ability to morph into a Dragon allows the player access to otherwise unreachable locations and features heavily during the second half of the game. Your dragon form can also be improved by special dragon armor and a variety of skills.
