The spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate is here.

<span class="bold">Pillars of Eternity</span>, in which adventure continues beyond The Gate, is available now for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com!

It's you, and your band of companions, against the world. A brand new fantasy world! A realm of long lost treasures and ancient mysteries buried beneath the depths of monster-infested dungeons. <span class="bold">Pillars of Eternity</span> sets out to redefine all that we know about character building, questing, and grinding. The thrill of the uncharted, the wonder of a sprawling, classic RPG epic is finally back!

Pillars of Eternity comes in three editions. The Hero Edition includes the base game, but more loot awaits the collectors out there!
The Champion Edition comes packed with special bonus content, including a full digital soundtrack, a high-res map, a campaign almanac, and more!
Royal Edition packs in even more bonus content. In addition to the Champion Edition goodies, four additional pieces of content exclusive to the Royal Edition can be yours now: a digital novella by Chris Avellone, collector's book PDF, high-resolution concept art, and a digital strategy guide.

If you bought the Hero Edition or Champion Edition, and you like the goodies included in the larger editions, all hope is not lost. We're currently working on making edition upgrades available for Pillars of Eternity . Stay tuned for future updates!

Gather your party and venture forth. <span class="bold">Pillars of Eternity</span> is finally out now, DRM-free on GOG.com!





Check it out on Twitch.tv/GOGcom!
The one and only TotalBiscuit will be taking Pillars of Eternity today, March 26th at 9pm GMT / 5pm EDT / 2pm PDT!
Afterwards, our regular and beloved Outstar will have her turn - come join her at 11pm GMT / 7pm EDT / 4pm PDT.

Scorpionscythe: Any news on a fix for the crash when downloading the extras? After the main game finishes I will try downloading the extra content separately.

JudasIscariot: Try downloading them through your browser for now, please :)

That doesn't work either for most items. I just tried and get errors on almost everything. So far only got the manual and soundtrack.

300/400 KB/s download speeds.. That's why pre-loading is always a good idea.

Hendrik.672: Unacceptable download speed
i tried a 1.1 gb game the downlaod stays at : initializing so that one is a goner if tehre too many downloads at once

i will try a game of 1.1 gb with the FF browser


nope: it says 3 to 4 minutes when i took syberia 1.1 GB as a test
so it is slow indeed on each connection.

thanks i just found a comparing online

http://www.hwcompare.com/2176/geforce-9600-gt-1gb-vs-geforce-gts-250-1gb/

they take a game as example , and it seems my card is at least a bit better then the 9600 GT
So its worth for me to wait till the game is older and will be on a good sale
I need at least 6 months or more to play the games i got during last years fall and winter promos plus the insomnia sales, if i want to finshed them all it might take a year so i can wait.

What bonuses are you getting the errors on? Are clicking on anything that says (coming soon) if you have the Royal Edition?

Just found that downloading through web with a download accelerator like Free Download Manager allows me to fill-up my 7MB/s bandwidth and I am already on ETA T-9 minutes :)

I have the Champion Edition. I have found out the problem. There are doubles of the extras but some showing 1mb in size and other showing the correct size. The ones showing the correct size can be downloaded individually. However, I am pretty sure some extras are still missing from this version as well though, including the making of video (may be mistaken but pretty sure it is included in the Champion Edition?). I see a 1 mb file for it but not the correct size file.

Edit* attached pictures of what I am writing about.

That fixed it. You would think that after all this time I would remember that. It is good now. Only thing missing is the 'documentary' but I assume that is still coming soon.

Thanks again.
