It mostly works, though I did run into some issues. It requires logging into your Steam account on the Switch, and then changing between platforms merely requires loading or saving after a Steam Cloud sync. Yes, if you've been playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 on PC, you can pull down your saves to the Switch and vice versa.
Probably the best new feature of Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition on Switch, the one that puts it ahead of its Xbox One and PS4 counterparts, is cross-save. Comparisons of Divinity: Original Sin 2 on Switch portable, Switch docked, and PC. But few RPGs offer the kind of player freedom found in Larian's sequel.

So color me surprised when Larian Studios announced the release of Divinity: Original Sin 2 - Definitive Edition for Nintendo Switch last week. I'm glad someone wants them, but they've cut too much. They're a technical achievement, but games like Doom or Wolfenstein 2 are a bridge too far in visual compromise. I'm not willing to give up all the visual fidelity though, and the Switch can only do so much.
