Divinity: Original Sin 2

Inheriting a potion shop from an uncle in Potionomics as a witch sounds like it would be a great start to a new career. However, alongside this shop is a heap of debt that Sylvia, the main character, must attempt to pay off while keeping this adorable potion shop afloat.

Like any good RPG, players won’t only be haggling with customers to earn a decent profit, but will also befriend or even romance the various vendors in Potionomics to earn better ways of dealing with customers, as a witch can’t only rely on the potions she brews.
