Daliz: One thing though.. Will they not patch the DRM-free disc version at all? The update sounded like the choice is Steam-disc or a day-1 version without further patches.
Nothing definite to say there yet but we'll investigate our options.
sorrowofwind: I'll just wait for gog wl2 then since the retail boxes are bound with steam, but seeing the line "The boxed copy shipped to you will come with the Steam version," I'm concerned about physical copies for Tide of Numerana backers.
Would the physical copies also require a separate call, day 1 disc that is sent at a later date to be steam-free like wl2 does?
Would international buyers require to pay another extra shipping fee?
We don't know yet for Torment physical copies. Each production has its own logics and what forced our hand for WL2 (the long gap between gold master and release) may not be true for TTON. We just can't definitely say either way.
We're not asking any extra shipping for the DRM-free copies.
WL2 probably will not (officially) support Italian on launch, we need to polish it up more and in the current timeline it doesn't look to be ready before release.
