Divinity: Original Sin 2 Hits Kickstarter Goal in Less Than 12 Hours - News

The Kickstarter campaign for Divinity: Original Sin 2 was officially funded in less than 12 hours. In comparison, it took the original game 12 days to reach its funding goal.

"Who would’ve predicted that a pitch built around adding extra dialog options & origin stories to a complex RPG would be capable of mobilizing so many people so fast? For RPG developers like us it's like a dream come true," said the development team in a post on Kickstarter. "You are allowing us to create deep complex RPG experiences that we love to make and we're so very grateful to all of you!"

"Where Divinity: Original Sin took 12 days to reach its funding goal, Divinity: Original Sin 2 was funded in less than 12 hours. Nobody at Larian, except Eric that is, could imagine that we would meet our goal so fast and now that we’ve reached this point, we’re incredibly motivated to take D:OS 2 as far as we can."

The first prototype for the game will be shown at PAX Prime this weekend. Meanwhile, funding pledges continue to pour in - the campaign has currently raised over $691,000.

It's not a big deal since the link's up there, but it would've been nice had the goal sum been mentioned in the text. It's $500,000, in case you were wondering.

Almost up to $750,000 raised already. I really hope they do this for PS4, so i can support it.
