Can't wait to see what you guys come up with this time and looking forward to being a part of the Kickstarter again!

Loved D:OS, looking forward to the EE and doing a sequel vs Div3 sounds interesting.

Last Kickstarter was a blast to be a part of, actually had fun watching you folks do your thing which of all the projects I backed in the past can honestly say D:OS was the best experience. Almost more fun than the game itself which can be a good or bad thing depending on how you look at it.


I pledged and all I got was this lousy awesome game!

Yay, that's what I need!

Probably needs more shoes, though. However many it has.

Awesome. To be honest, a little anticlimactic of an announcement, though. Basically no information. I understand you're building up hype for the kickstarter, but I think even a single specific example of a new feature would've doubled my hype. I was kind of expecting D:OS 2, given the whole "Act" stuff in the editor. I almost made a post about it yesterday :P

Although, that artwork is quite interesting. Can anyone tell who or what that guy on the left is?

Finally, maybe you guys should split your suggestion site into stretch goals and backer rewards sections. More than half of those suggestions look like stretch or goals or just general wants for the game.

Here's for hoping. But I think that may be a lizardman...

Thanks for this update.

I just came back to the forums when they announce it, I cannot wait to join the alpha or beta to leave my feedback and bug reporting. I've also just added the suggestions that need to be on Divinity 2!

Ok, just got two suggestions...

1.) Have tiers for those that already supported D:OS so that customers won't be getting stuff they already got before. (more for Physical rewards)

2.) Don't call the game Divinity: Original Sin II. Even if it is the sequel of the same two characters. I'm sure with the amount of brilliant staff in the office, you can come up with a much better Divinity title. Such as Chronicles of the Guardians.


Personally, I'd like to see Sword of Lies with the D:OS engine with the ending Swen had first imagined for the wastelands. If I'd do the ending, I'd have the assassin guild actually in a dragon keep similar to those in Ego/DKS.

Every time there I run into trouble on the road, there is always a dwarf at the bottom of it. Don't they know how to drive above ground?

I agree, they should call it:

II: The sequel to Divinity: Original Sin silly

its kind of a marketing thing. D:OS is a trademark now. But they can certainly come up with a cool subtitle

Yeah, the name. Totally understandable why they went with it, but damn it's easy to make jokes about it. Unfortunately "Original Sin" is already the subtitle, unless you mean like, the tagline. Or maybe it just needs a second subtitle?

Divinity: Original Sin 2: The Confession

Divinity: Original Sin 2: Revenge of the Semicolon

Divinity: Hipster Sin

Divinity: Would you stop sinning already?

Divinity: Sinning all over the place

Divinity: Bed, Bath, and Sins

And just wait for the EE:

Divinity: Original Sin 2: The Confession: Enhanced Edition

They should bring back the utterly superfluous "Divine" too, so it'd be:

Divine Divinity: Original Sin 2: Revenge of the Semicolon: Enhanced Edition

Or they could come up with a title that incorporates its own tagline:

Divinity: Divine Sin: The Seconding: Revenge of the Semicolon: Enhanced Edition: Such Sin, So Wow

I bet whoever in Larian who's reading this forum is either giggling or steaming right now.
