I couldn't find the news anywhere here, but it seems like GOG.com (not CDP) have put a substantial kick in the game's funding. Thank Larian on Twitter, because they were correcting an article stating that CDP made the pledge.

I'd say how much it is, but I don't want to just in case I'm not allowed for some reason. I'm guessing that's why #GOGhero has popped up, too.

Tweet by Larian:

@gamerebell We have been backed by @GOGcom not CD Project RED.

I don't think it's a secret that GOG pledged 10k for OS2. Which is a great move if you ask me.

Yeah, it got mentioned.

No reason not to share the amount of contribution.

And yes, it is because of it that GOG is looking for hero to design.

It was revealed in kicstarter update #9 posted Sep 16 2015. GOG.com backed the project on Divine Noble (10,000 $) tier. If we assume launch price of the game to be ~50$, GOG will have to sell 667 copies just to recoup the investment (10000/(50*0,3)). I'm sure it'll sell quite few times that here. Ofcource, marketing value of the fact that backing at that tier means GOG.com will be featured in game's title screen is immesurable.

Our Mystery Patron: Revealed!

Some of you may have noticed we have not one, but TWO backers filling out our Divine Noble ($10,000) reward tier. While we were in touch with one of those backers, the other remained a mystery... until now. Today, we'd like to formally thank our good friends (and patrons!) at GOG.com for their very generous contribution to our campaign. We're absolutely looking forward to working with them to cook up a high-ranking Divine Order official and couldn't be happier to have them in our corner for the development of Divinity: Original Sin 2.

The GOG logo will also be on the title screen along with any other 10K contributors, 2 others so far.

I would agree, Larian have brought all their games here and they have all been very good. Long may it continue.

Sounds like a good thing to me, quality should be supported.

So... if GOG.com backed up the game, does that mean all GOG.com users will get a copy FREE?!? Or only the GOG.com staff members?

I wonder if they'll get a GOG logo on the title screen or will it just be text only?

Even the highest Kickstarter tiers usually limit the number of copies you get. :P

That kinda makes no sense, and it's selfish.

We'll probably get the game on GoG Store, and that is good enough.

It will come to GoG, there's no doubt about that.

Backers have an option to redeem the game on Steam or GoG, the same as in the original Divinity Original Sin KS campaign.

Then what's the fucking point of mentioning the news.
