Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity Original Sin - Beta Douts about GOG version & Kickstarter backer code

Hi,

Does the GOG version will have access to an editor or I need the steam client? Also will the users that have the GOG version have access to mods (or they would have to hack it to get them working)?

The "Kickstarter backer code" should be add to every single time I create a profile or I can only use once ?

Tnx

Hi Tomo,

please show me a link to the gog-version. I canｴt find it

Thank you,


Cor

The editor supports the Steam Workshop, but it is not required. Mods can be distributed by other means (Nexus, etc), since they are just a file in a game folder.

I don't know about the 'Kickstarter backer code'.


The game has not been released on GOG yet.

Hi Raze,

thx for your info!

There isn't yet, but we have to choose before the end of the beta.



Does it mean that we can't have in both systems? If not then the poeple that choose GOG will lack mods and the editor??

If a modder chooses steam workshop as an exclusive over the Nexus (or even these forums).. then yeah, you will lack those mods... it's why I am against using Steam Workshop as only place to host mods. As you lock out all people who choose DRM free by using it.

How the editor will be distributed to the GOG buyers I don't know though. One would hope it isn't a Steam download... or maybe it's part of the install for the GOG version, we don't know yet.

Basically, Editor = Unknown

But you can use mod wherever you want, *as long as the modder does not put it exclusively on the steam workshop*

The editor will be just a normal download on GOG, like the game itself.

It's up to the individual modder where they want to publish their mods. Larian doesn't force anyone to use the Steam Workshop.

You can use it for multiple profiles, if you wish (it unlocks your personal kickstarter rewards, including message in a bottle, name a pet, and co-op dialogue).
