People talking about it being on GOG on the Larian forums seem pretty sure but I don't have a quote for you.

Larian is amazing at UI these days, I already noticed that with Dragon Commander.
Every time I see a Wasteland 2 screenshot showing its UI I wish they'd just outsource it to Larian. Even now after 3 iterations.

I know with the Kickstarter you have an option to get it delivered through Steam, GOG or Larian. I think I'll get it from Larian since it will be totally DRM free even though Steam is the most convenient for playing on different PCs.
So I'm not sure what Zeliard is talking about, but I do intend to get this game.
Zeliard was trashing Planescape: Torment a ton earlier though.

what me? What about that guy over there!
Whew.
I knew it. His insightful posts about RPGs are just a clever ruse. He's probably playing Dragon Age 2 right now. On his 5th time through.
Maybe he's like this dude (from a great upcoming not-trashy-at-all redblooded American AAA RPG):

I just watched the E3 trailer. It made me sad, but it also made me appreciate DOS so much more.
OK I admit I am one of those who dismissed the game as eurojank. So this is an actual solid, party based wrpg with tactical combat?
Do you create your character and recruit npcs? Full inventory management and interesting progression system?

Edit: Wrong thread.
Congratulations!
Now you just need to tell 5 other people about it. Because really, this game's largest issue is awareness.
Does he have an album of stuff like this?
I wish I knew 5 other people who were into games like this. That would be so great.
I'll just do my posts about how amazing the game is and give the devs my money.

And if those folks are on neogaf, then we'll have a total of 8 people here excited about the game.
Jokes aside, it's a little disheartening when I tell my friends about it and most them take one look at it and dismiss it as eurojank. No matter how many videos or OSTs I sling their way, the reaction is the same. At least one of my mates saw this thread and it was enough to convince him to buy it.
As far as I know, yes.
The classes are completely open, so you don't really have a class. I personally liked starting as a Knight and a Witch, they complemented each other really well.
All right, great, thanks. I'll most likely wait until launch or when I finish Dragon Commander then.
Larian is probably way too busy finishing the game to go to e3.
Don't hate on Bioware! They gave us excellent this masterpiece after all:

I wish! But yeah, as Santiako is saying, Larian probably have more important stuff to do right now.
Oh most definitely.
I was thinking something along the lines of an attendee leaving a computer on a foldout table somewhere.
There is (and has been for quite a while) an early access release. However, saves will not be compatible with the final version.
Ouch, yea that's going to be unfortunate.
Well, it also IS an Early Access game. It's possible that like Assetto Corsa they put that on sale and so you get a good number of sales even though it isn't even out until the sale ends.
Now something not in Early Access like, say, Trails in the Sky releasing that day, I'd be REALLY worried. Though either way this raises questions on if this is a factor in the delay.

They could always do what Metal Gear Revengeance did, it had it's big unveiling on steam in the middle of a sale and had a sale price, people bought it in droves.

That would badly screw over Kickstarter backers, wouldn't it? Something MGR:R didn't have.
Yes. Yes. Yes.
(unless the only reason you liked BG/IWD was because of RTwP combat)
They could sell it for more than the KS price but less than the retail price. There's a bit of room there.
Well on Kickstarter you could get a copy of the game for $25, they'll be selling it for $40, so they could do a $30 sale or even down to the same $25 they gave kickstarter backers without screwing anyone.

Oh, right. I was in a higher KS tier, so didn't remember the actual base price. Thought it was a regular retail price.
Anyway, I wouldn't lower the price, but rather give people some extras during that sale, like the OST, or a copy of Dragon Knight Saga or so.
There has never been nor will there every be a reason to pre-order a video game.

I fixed that for ya mate.
Yeah, I backed at $25, so doing for a $30 sale may be a solid compromise. You were activley paying to play a game early for Steam Early Access, and those who did via Kickstarter were acting in good faith.
Their release of this game is terrible. I'm interested in the idea of this game, but I don't trust the developers to make a good game enough to spend $40 without a thorough demo, and all the preview material I've read has been pure fluff. Throwing the release right after the steam summer sale just makes the purchase an even worse value by comparison.
