Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) General Gaming Mags

OK, I have both my December issues of P.C.Gamer and Computer Gaming World. Where is my advertisement/interveiw for <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/riftrunner.gif" alt="" />? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> If we are to recieve on our shores Q1/04 our long awaited title; why do the 2 largest gaming mags in the U.S. have nothing in them about it? Should I send them an E-Mail to let them know it is in the works?

thats strange! I got my demo of Divinity in PC GAMMER, so they definitly know about Larian and Divinity, gave it a 86% its on page 106 or 104, not sure, but I have it pretty well memorized <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />


yeah, I might just email them too, they need to know! be a prophet, spread the news!

I think that the advertisements for <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/riftrunner.gif" alt="" /> will come when the Larians are pretty sure about a release date. so if it is indeed february, then imho advertisements will come in january numbers and december numbers that actually come out IN DECEMBER itself <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Divine Divinity got a full page review in the Christmas 2002 issue of Australian PC PowerPlay. They gave it 87. "This game is going to pick up a strong following very quickly and is only let down by its lack of multiplayer support." So true, even though I care not for multiplayer!

You were lucky Lews. I saw 1 ad for <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> and then downloaded the game demo online. Here I have been ever since! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> I guess P.C. Gamer gives a little extra to the folks in Canada since they had that Canadian Corner thing going on for awhile. (That was pretty <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" /> BTW) LOL!
Yes, I really belive The Powerfully Insane Fanbase needs to let these folks know whats going on in the world! They seem a little cloistered with the FPS's and RTS's and the MMO's. Pah!

IMHO, multiplayer is taking a big toll on many RPG's basics... mainly the script and the story. It's very unusual to have games as <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> , BG or Arcanum.

However if I were the gaming company I'd try to go multiplayer too... must be quite some cash! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I just hope DD2 gets a 100 <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
