Game News Divinity: Original Sin Kickstarter Update #53: Co-op, Companions and Steam Early Access

[Arkeus]

So do I have to get another key from Larian if I have the alpha or will I be upgraded automatically in Steam?

If you got the Alpha key from the larian vault, you will need to redeem the game key when it comes out- either redeeming it with Larianvault, GoG, or Steam.

Paid 40 euros for this with a smile on my face. If there's a game dev studio that deserves it, it's Larian. They consistently deliver (although I did not play Dragon Commander on account of it being obviously not to my tastes).

I already used up mine to get the first alpha key.
Still don't understand how to get the 2nd one...

Why get rid of pyramids? It's fun to "break" the game with them.

Only watched twitch streams of this, I'm restraining myself from getting on board before it's finished, but I thought the pyramids looked like an interesting mechanic that provides something a bit different. Man I'm liking what I see on the dev playthroughs so far. Hope this doesn't disappoint.

Will wait for my boxed version.I can wait for a full discover as I don't want to spoil myself and I will have enough to do with the 2 big coming soon

Got that early access. Should download in a couple of days. Can't wait.
Also, I know you can throw objects around but can you throw people?

 

[Markman]

Im getting it as soon it goes from alpha to beta or more stable.
One of the few games Im looking forward to this year.

Every time I see an update D:OS I cry a little inside when I remember that my international creditcard was canceled just at the time of the Kickstarter. Damn, they really deserve all the support they had. I'll probably need to sell my soul to buy this game since the value of it in BRL is significantly high now. I don't know when, sadly, but I will certainly buy it. And then, test the patience of my friends, family and acquaintances telling them to buy it too.

The new combat music is neat. Reminds me of Final Fantasy for some reason. Heh

I got the duo pack on the kickstarter, the second alpha key now appears in the Larian Vault all the way down the list of rewards. You need to go and redeem it.

 

[Jack Dandy]

Yep, got it. And gifted to a nice fellow.

 

[SuicideBunny]

did they add any new areas/quests in this update?

The first Alpha felt good. Best game I played in years (old school replays not included but endangered). Now it is even better. Larian deserves big love. And to think this is only a teaser. It is by far my most expected game of the year.

Of course it is alpha and there are bugs and lots of things lacking polish (most withstanding map control and commands for moving around problems). But I stay for minutes near the signs with "area under construction", salivating heavily while clicking around, hoping I can bypass them somehow.
