Larian Studios Forums General Suggestions Day/Night in D:OS

Having day and night cycle would be a great additional variable in the strategy part of gameplay but also general atmosphere of the game.

This was a specific Kickstarter goal. Specifically, it was the only Kickstarter goal where the fundraising quota was not met. More likely than not, since they didn't get the money, they're not going to provide it.

Unless they are overcome with Good Guy Greg spirit or something.

unfortunate. You know, I didn't even hear of DOS until it came out! How was it promoted during Kickstarter? This team really deserves more money in my opinion. When you see the amount of crap that has been released by some of the bigger ones...

The kickstarter got close enough to the goal that Larian was originally going to implement the day/night cycles and schedules, but doing it properly was much more complex than anticipated, so eventually had to be dropped. See the blog post Here we go!.

Sad know about that, but could be a great additional and in the nigth, the game cold be more dificult and the night could be more difficult, both in terms of vision and the possibility of random encounters with strong wild creatures in some areas. Perhaps like Dragons dogma day and night mechanics, for encounters with enemies.
