Divinity: Original Sin 2 confirms split-screen, finally shows skill crafting

[Administrator]

Split-screen play - either two people on one screen, or four people across two screens - has finally been confirmed for Divinity: Original Sin 2.
Split-screen is demonstrated by developer Larian in a new DOS2 update video (below), along with - for the very first time - skill crafting! This new system lets you combine skill books, one elemental and one not, to make a new skill. You can even add a Source skill to the mix for a supercharged outcome - a Source-powered outcome. Source is a new resource in DOS2 acquired from Source pools or from Source apparitions, which you can, um, sort of eat, if you're that way inclined.
Runecrafting is also introduced in the video and allows you to - as in other games - craft runes to upgrade your gear with. You can create them from scratch with Pixie Dust, anything wooden, and oil, or you can combine runes you've picked up with any other runes to create stronger versions of them.
