Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General Twitch TV Coop on Friday, 13th

Hey guys,

Just wanted to let you know that apparently Swen and David are going to stream the coop of the alpha build on Friday, 13th

http://www.twitch.tv/larianstudios

Time in UTC?

16:00 UTC (Google says UTC is an hour behind Brussels, which is listed as starting at 17:00 on Larian's Twitch.tv page... or 8am in LA / 11am in New York).

UTC does not take daylight savings into account, GMT does.

hope they answer questions as well while playing

"only" 7,5 hours to go

1.30 left

ihihi 11m left

Holycrap, I've been trying to ask simple question about the machines (specs) they ran the builds on but it got overwhelmed twice by bunch of dumb question about the crabs.

I knew I should have disabled chat from the beginning. Other streams taught me well >_>

The stream was tons of fun, as expected. Very appreciative of all the questions they answered and all their hard work putting together what looks to be a great alpha coming our way.

You guys rock, that was fantastic. Thanks for sharing this and for all the effort you're putting into this!

Missed the stream...so it sounds as if they approved the played version for alpha on the 16th?

It depends on the playthrough of swen this weekend. There is a couple of bugs that does not give the right functions, and missing functions such as magic pockets when they installed a new build.

Probably, when they repair this kind of issues.

Possibly, it'll be released on 17th. 16th is a possibility if their staff works on the weekends.

I managed to catch part of the stream, it was pretty nice Though it kept pausing for me and I kept having to reload it...I think they missed my question too ah well thats too bad.

What question?

The stream only paused a couple times for me, though started again by itself in a couple seconds. It also rewound slightly twice and skipped forward (also presumably slightly) about 3 times.

There is a video on the twitch.tv channel now, though only the last 20 minutes of the 4 hour session.

No, the first part is there as well:


Alpha Review Build Stream Part 1 (3:40:58)
Alpha Review Build Stream Part 2 (21:18)

Oops; the video list looked like it was in reverse chronological order, but is not. Even then, to find the first part of the stream, I have to hit the 'more videos' button and then go into 'Past Broadcasts' (the other videos are listed in the channel Video column, 2 at the top and 2 at the bottom, one being the 21 minute end, and the other 3 just around a minute each).

They try not to work on the weekends, their weekly schedule is pretty crazy enough right now.
I mean at 21:00 on Thursday we left because we were hungry and had to work the next day, and there were still 10ish people working their butt off. :P

Okay i watched through the whole videos right now. I think the decision the made is right the should give us the alpha now.(Not now of course tuesday is okay, too )

Thats a long list of talents you can choose of, and i hope there will explanations what everything does. What i kind of missed was that we didnt see any companions or henchmen and mostly skeletons as enemys. Of course not everthing is working and there are a lot of placeholders, which is normal for an alpha i guess.

But it was very funny to watch and i cant wait to try it out myself. I like that there will be necromancy and the telekinesis move and the teleportation is hillarious.
And as far as i understood we will get two alphakeys (when you have bought two copies), the moment they give us the multiplayer, which is really great because my buddy is bugging me that he wants to play it too.

So i am very exciting about the game and hopefully the version has no gamebreaking bugs.

If that's the hours they are working, I think I'll love working at Larian. My company that makes us work our ass off more than 12 hours a day when busy season hits including weekends with minimum wage if comparing the hours vs pay.
