their sales would not suffer. To release DVD version of the game you should invest huge amount of money. They couldnt hope to cover their loses just from few mentally disordered guys, who need box version in 2014.


Larian most likely won't make physical releases anymore after D:OS anyway... hahaha

"Don't do anything physical," says Vincke, when I ask him about recommendations for his fellow developers who are thinking about using Kickstarter. "I would never again do all the boxed stuff, and I regret that we spent so much time on everything related to making a physical release happen."

The studio wound up devoting a significant amount of resources and time to printing discs, shipping boxes, and getting Original Sin translated and age-rated in multiple territories prior to release. Vincke tells me he ignored good advice to focus on developing a digital game in English and only worry about things like localization after your game is released.

"At the time I answered him by saying 'you know we've been doing this for quite some time, we're released so many RPGs, we can deal with this, blah blah blah.' And it's true, we have done this several times, and it's always been miserable! Here too, it was miserable again," says Vincke.

"I will definitely try to listen to my own advice next time."
