What will the GoG retail price be for Divinity O.Sin? When will it be available for sale on Gog?

Does GoG business model not give a shit about losing sales to Steam?
gog dont loosing me ;)
i´m waiting and get it on gog.
and if i must pay 5€ more.... well, then i own it on gog :D
They are probably waiting for the awesome summer sale to wrap up. Who would get things on steam anyway? I don't like to pay that high of a price for a game rental, I pay to own on GOG.
GOG is definitely losing sales when they don't do preorders. At least they should make the game page accessible and mark it "coming soon.." so people can see it will be available here.
GOG doesn't really deal with preorders that much yet, and in the case of Divinity they would've had to highlight how they weren't allowing access to the game yet, whereas people who buy it on Steam were able to play the alpha/beta builds for ages already. That or give an Early Access key but that's like adding a Steam key.

It's probably a big part of the reason why GOG is looking into Early Access, because it's picking up Steam what's essentially 'preorders' long before GOG gets to sell the game.

I'd guess not until they figure out how to disable our backers EA keys.

You know, I don't know if that's even possible, I believe the way EA works is that you get the game permanently.

People who want it on GOG will buy it on GOG regardless of how much it costs on Steam (either Steam fans or people who want the cheapest price will just buy it there.)

Unless you ask to Steam Support to remove it from your account , and specify for which reason, otherwise yes i think you are right.

Actually, Larian made sure that the EA keys given to Kickstarter backers expire when the game comes out, so that people can choose whether they want a Steam or GOG version.

Of course, the EA version bought on steam will stay on steam (the only one expiring are those gotten from larian vault for backers).

I've already got mine, but the game isn't availble for download yet.

Word of warning, you will need to re-select GOG before generating your key, for some reason the choice reset to Steam.

Fair enough. I just thought that the only way a game can be removed from an account on Steam is if you actually ask support to do it, like above dude said.

And it appears they changed their minds:
As they have way more steam users, you have to use the larian vault to revoke your EA key and exchange it for a GOG one. This way all the people who use steam don't have to do anything.
