Divinity: Original Sin Funded on Kickstarter

This morning I was very excited to hear that not only is Divinity: Original Sin going to be released, it reached all of it's Kickstarter stretch goals. Before I went to sleep on the 25th I saw that with less then 24 hours left in their funding campaign Divinity was able to hit the $800,000 mark. This "second to last" goal upgrades the in game hirelings from genetic Henchmen to fully developed Companions. A major achievement indeed but the odds of the game reaching 1,000,000 and unlocked the final goal of "day/night cycles, weather systems, and NPC schedules" seemed unlikely.  Too much money to cover in too short a time.

As it turns out, the conurbations donated to Larian Studios LLC via PayPal were enough to push the total funds received passed 1 Million. Thanks to the generous support of RPG gamers like me we're soon going to have the pleasure of playing a 100% complete Divinity: Original Sin later this year.  


  

For those of you unaware of this forthcoming title, Original Sin is the third game in the "Divinity" main series and will feature old school turn based combat in an a large free roaming world. If your a PC gamer and a RPG fan this game is definitively worth looking in to.
