Larian Studios Forums Divinity - Original Sin Divinity - Original Sin - General No DRM-free copy in the retail version ?

The Steam version is (almost?) DRM-free as well. You only need it for the first installation and for updates. You don't need the Steam client while playing and you can copy the game files whereever you want them to be, even another computer. Then you can just play the game by clicking on the exe file in the game folder. No Steam needed anymore.
