I'm going to immediately trade in my XB1X copy and buy a copy for the Switch.
EDIT: eShop page up:
EDIT2: Purchased and downloaded from the eShop!

If you happen to own a Nintendo Switch, then you'll be able to take all your hundreds of hours of gameplay on the go from today. Divinity: Original Sin 2 has just been released on the Nintendo E-Shop, and it comes not only with all of the Gift Bags you've enjoyed on Steam, but also cross-save progression between the Switch and Steam.
It works pretty simply: once you buy DOS2 from the E-Shop and load up the game, you'll be asked if you want to link to Steam. If you choose to, it'll automatically grab your saves from the elusive and impenetrable Steam cloud (you'll see how we managed this next week), and your save will be playable on the Switch. It works vice-versa, too. Finished with a game? It'll upload the save back into the cloud. You'll need to be connected to the internet as well as Nintendo's online service, but you'll need that anyway if you're venturing into four player coop on the Switch (which is totally possible!)
We're extremely proud to be able to bring this to the players in cooperation with Nintendo and Valve who helped us plug everything together.
Yea, I don't know about trading in XB1X fidelity for Switch's performance (esp. for folks on the go with Lite). I hope it is a technically competent port. With time, DF will most likely inform us.
I never actually finished this, got to Arx and stopped pre definitive edition. How much more do I have to go?
For my lifestyle and work schedule, portability > performance.
