FYI...To all of you North American's who are looking for Beyond Divinity.

First of all on behalf of Hip Games I would like to publicly thank the team at Larian Studios for exceeding our expectations on the successful launch of Beyond Divinity, along with the follow up support that (I think) everyone can, and does appreciate.

Thanks, Hip Games!

I'll gladly sell my copy to somebody, if none of those locations pan out.

SELL you copy, it is IMHO a keep sake that will be put in a safe after I have finished playing the game. Iy you mean the signed novella, that will not even get opened as I got a copy with BD.

My thoughts exactly, Goldy!

Bottom line Americans got $%^&& dont buy it -buggy.I loved D <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> but I got to slam this its just a rehash of diablo 1 yes diablo 1 constant dungeon hack n slash.

Suit yourself. I want my 40 bucks back. If you'd like my copy to mess up to keep yours in mint condition, I'll gladly sell it to you.

I learned of the frerebies too late, and ordered off Amazon, getting none. I wouldn't mind if there were a way to get DD for free somehow. I went to literally 5 stores here, EB x2, BB, Walmart, Gamestop, with 0 luck, and finally ordered online. For my effort, I got less than those who waited. Patience may be a virtue, but patience of purchasers is not a virtue for the companies that need their money quickly. I'd like to see my earnestness provided a carrot instead of a stick.

Welcome to the forum, Sweintraub! I to held out on buying the game online. Finally today I will have the opportunity to go to Best Buy and get the bundle I have been waiting for! WOOt! I purchased the Fanpack from DJ so I would have a signed copy that would never be read, but I do want to read it! The Best Buy bundle is the only one I know of that has the novella in the US. I have spent the last few weeks Trolling this forum, trying my hardest not to look at Beyond threads! Wow! Talk about difficult! Anyways, looks like I finally have the pleasure of being back in the loop!

Welcome, Sweintraub! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Funny, I tried to avoid a lot of the threads about BD due to the same reason.. I don't have the game yet. lol! :P

Although, someone did order the FanPack for me as a gift <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> I can't wait to play BD and I can't wait for my FanPack. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" /> *Runs to the store to get BD*
