I'm an ENTHUSIASTIC D:OS Kickstarter backer and have been waiting anxiously for the final release. I would REALLY prefer the GOG version.
As everyone who visits these forums knows, there's been a lot of discussion about WHEN on 6/30 Larian would release the final game. Could I download it last night, well after June 30 has begun in Belgium? Most people guessed it would be some time this morning Pacific time. I've anxiously kept an eye on the Larian Vault, where the final keys were to be released, and also periodically checked my Steam account to see when the beta version would be shut down. I last started up D:OS on Steam about 6 PM last night PDT (right now it's about 8:50 AM Monday morning) and sure enough, it was still working, meaning no release yet. No keys were available in the Vault, confirming that impression.
Then Larian changed the terms about how to obtain the final game. No, the Steam beta version would NOT stop working, and if I started it up after the final release, I was locked into Steam. Well, I hadn't done that, although I did have Steam open on my Mac through last night. (Steam was running but no games.)
IMAGINE MY DISMAY when I opened the Larian Vault just now and found my new Steam keys, along with the statement this was final and could not be changed.
UPDATE 9:03 AM: Yup, they just updated the Vault and made it clear we CAN change to GOG. THANKS everyone
