I don't think they *promised* to deliver them. They're working on a way to hopefully get them to GOG. However, given the quote below, it looks like they want a way that ties the DLC to the backers, ie DRM, which GOG doesn't do.
The Backer Outfit Set DLC is only available on Steam right now. As GOG is a DRM-free platform, it does not have the same system to check for and authenticate DLC that Steam does. However, we're working on an alternate method that will let GOG backers get the outfits separately. We hope to have that available soon. Thanks for your patience!
On top of that they have this statement which quite likely applies to GOG:
Part of the issue is that we can't necessarily have the stores create DLCs and packages for all our backers - they don't always want to host items and SKUS they can't sell, such as specific rewards that are exclusive to backers. Again, we'll look into it and see what's possible to offer this way.

So yeah, I'm sure they're trying to find a good solution but it's going to depend on more than just them willing it into being, they'll need Techland to be fine with a drm-free solution and GOG to be fine with adding yet another entry into their database for a DLC that's only going to have a use for backers of Torment.

WOW . That looks like really lame :S What's the problem with Pillars of Eternity style ? I was backer of them too and I didn't see any problem . Everything available even on day one . I don't understand why InXile trying to do those kind of things . Even on Steam people could trade their keys . That's pure stupidity .

EDIT: I read again , those messages seems posted before release . So it's too late for backer specific tiers . They must provide them as DLC for their backers .

I don't care about that outfit, so I'd happily give you my code for it if you want it, but so far it seems to be Steam exclusive. .

Probably they will release it for GOG on next week . Or worst case it will be in March . Otherwise things will be really weird and complicated .

I don't get why they don't simply add them to the downloads of the extra section on their website - as they do for all the other extras at the moment - while they work out something with GOG.

as if GOG didnt have games with DLC that were tied to user library already

i'm a bit fed up with such excuses like that from devs, it gives me back a strong bad vibe of "Armello"

How about to stop talking about thrash? I don't want to see those bunch of useless posts here. If you are a backer, you will get your DLC and if not you will get nothing embrace that fact. And move on. I am really having fun with my game. Luckily I backed it while on KS campaign.

InXIle Support:

"...The reason there is no GOG key to activate the Backer Outfit Set DLC is because, as GOG is a DRM-free platform, it does not have the same system to check for and authenticate DLC that Steam does. On Steam, the game will check for the DLC on your account and activate it; obviously, this solution doesn't work on GOG, hence why there's no GOG key for it available.

That said, we certainly have not forgotten GOG users on this, and we're working on an alternate method that will let GOG backers get the outfits separately....

Yeah I read that before . Weirdly , game is using Pillars of Eternity's engine but can't activate DLCs like Pillars of Eternity . Because they are already embedded in-game files and Steam could authenticate it . All games on GOG and Pillars of Eternity too ; using seperate files for DLC files . They must do same thing for Torment too . Otherwise it seems impossible to release it on GOG .

I wouldn't take it personally. Brian Fargo is one of the best in the business, and he's relatively neutral to DRM as far as devs who have been around since almost the beginning. I think it's more along the lines of, they're overthinking the GOG release, that's all.

Torment is Fargo's baby almost as much as Wasteland 2 was, so it makes sense he's protective of it.
