Re: Making of divinity 2 video - shame the air to ground combat and jungle level were cut. I know Larian had their reasons for doing that but it looked awesome in the video. Saw the dragon flying through what looked like Broken Valley as well plus much, much more. Great video though. I can see now how the game was originally planned but for various reasons was changed to the final product. Lots of cool ideas there which I hope will make it into the sequel. Especially when technology has come on further and Larian can make the game they really wanted to make in the first place. The secret project only known as 'the RPG to dwarf them all'? Nudge, nudge, wink, wink

Yes, it ended just over 24 hours ago. Unfortunately they took the page down immediately rather than leaving the description and final stats up.

Finished watching the "Making of" video - damn, so much content was removed. I can live without half-dragon form, but air-ground battle system was damn cool, not even mentioning gorgeous locations like outskirts of Aleroth of Swamps. I really hope the content is still stored somewhere at Larian's rep so it could be used in some anniversary edition or DLC (yeah, I'm ready to pay for DLC).

I proved a little bit of fury when I saw that video even with the quite of Sven or the irony of Farhang..It's impossible that such good project died for the publisher whim, I can understand the unbalance problems with some feature, but not a total rape of the original project; After all Divinity 2 was and is great, especially with the first final, and only now i understand some change/review from Divine Divinity or Beyond Divinity, only now :\ Btw I'll pay for an extra DLC too, but there'll be Dragon Commander that give me some feature of the "Divinity 2 prototipe", so I don't think that it's all lost. I just got my package. It DOES smell good, just like advertised. I suppose with me being in England I'll have to be a bit more patient. I'm not very good at patience! Be happy for that, I'm in italy and here not only the time separate me from the Anthology, but even the possibility of being robbed from the currier (last week I lost a Corel Painter X copy..)..but the hope it's last to die

As I mentioned previously I hope these ideas have not gone to waste and will be used in the sequel. I'd be happy to pay for DLC as well.

Sad, I'm too short on money right now (board games/roleplaying/comic fair took a heavy toll), but I wanted to give me the Anthology as a birthday present for myself next month anyway ... I can't really wait until I'll have it ...  And meanwhile I'm looking for a new graphics card anyway ... (I'm using onboard graphics on my "gaming PC" right now.) Ah, those memories ...  DEATHATTHEDOOR has renamed himself at least once (don't remember his current name), the others are lost or scattered round ...

HandEFood is dead (died a few years ago) HandEFood's last post is from 20/12/2011, not quite one year ago, so I suppose you've confused the names and you mean MeaCulpa, right?

The Developer's Journal is a gem by the way. Reads like a shakespearian drama, with lots of ups and downs.

Mine just turned up today, having been only slightly gnawed by the postman. It's wonderful having all those autographs! It also has a rather annoyed-looking rabbit, in spite of me taking care not to be horrid to them... eek!

Hi guys! I bought the boxed version of Divinity Anthology, and it's great (and the smells good too), but there's a small problem. Some of the tracks on the soundtrack cds, are faster than the original ones. For example: Festival of Immortals. I activated the Steam version of the Anthology with the voucher, and the songs (oggs) of the extras section are faster too. Is it a feature or a glitch?

I would assume it is deliberate, if the CD and download are the same. I checked 'Festival of Immortals' from the Larian Vault CD download (2:56 ogg file) and the GOG soundtrack (3:17 mp3). The faster songs are probably just remixes of the originals; WMP says the full Musica Divina CD is 56:52, so they didn't have to speed anything up to fit it all on the CD, anyway. Welcome to the forum.
