RPG fans, promo hunters, dev supporters! For the next 7 days GOG.com gives you a chance to put three wonderful role-playing games on your shelf, puts you in control over their price, and offers you an opportunity to support the games' hard working and talented developers: Larian Games. Proudly introducing: [url=http://www.gog.com/divinity]GOG Pay What You Want: Divinity Anthology! The "Pay What You Want" can be purchased from GOG.com starting now until 01:00 AM GMT on the 18th of October, 2012.

Set your own fair price for the classic Divine Divinity, where you become the chosen one, destined to fulfil an ancient prophecy and save the Seven Races of Rivellon. In this extensive, challenging, and very addictive game you will encounter many different enemies and a great variety of items, NPCs, and quests.

Beat the average price and receive your copy of Beyond Divinity, the creative continuation of the series, featuring an immersive story of the divine and the daemonic, challenging gameplay with two characters to control at the same time and a huge universe to explore and exploit.

The top 10% of our most generous users will also grant themselves an early access to the upcoming Divinity 2: Developer's Cut.The Developer's Cut, which is the ultimate edition of the game, comes with Divinity II and the expansion Divinity II: Flames of Vengeance, as well as a special developer's mode and extra goodies, will be available on PC on the 18th of October, 2012, but if you buy it here you will get to play it a day earlier than everyone else! The "Director's Cut" subtitle also means, that you'll have the unique opportunity to experience the game just as the developers did: with optional access to developer console you'll feel like the god of the realm.

But that's not all! All of the games come with an extensive amount of goodies--especially Divinity 2: Developer's Cut features a crazy amount of bonus materials (all of which you can access as soon as you finalize your purchase). To make things even more interesting, Larian Games told us that as the sales progress, they will be releasing some very special announcements and interesting videos. Heard enough? Go to the GOG Pay What You Want: Divinity Anthology page!

Psyringe: Humm. Is there a list somewhere of what's been updated? I could download it all, but would prefer to download just the new content.
I try to keep the gogwiki updated, but haven't added the newer divinity stuff in it yet (other than the installer hashes). Take a look there, see what exists in the wiki and what doesn't, and you could probably add the missing things too ;)

They adjusted the game. Stepsize dropped to a quarter dollar and prices also but sales probably went up.

5k in the first day, 3k in the second. Better than the latest indie face fart!

Btw ...:

- BD Language Pack (Russian): 262 MB
- BD Language Pack (French): 183 MB
- BD Language Pack (Polish): 9 MB

Polish must be an extremely efficient language. :)

Adam23: Concerning the counter for Games sold so far etc: Shouldn't there be comma as the thousands separator, instead of the point used for decimal separation, GOG? :)

thebum06: That depends on where in the world you're from.
Gonna nitpick more :D

The way it is now, it is wrong. If the games are priced $9.99...
then not even 9 full games were sold, I demand this to be fixed!

IIRC, the paypal fee is actually in relation to the transaction amount for sellers, so it is impossible to cause the seller to lose money. Instead, the worst that can happen is that the PayPal feel is the same as the sale price because it becomes impossible to round up to anything lower.

You should bear in mind that there is much more value in this promotion that selling games for a profit. As an infinite virtual media, the games themselves can be sold and redistributed indefinately, without the loss of the original copy. It costs nothing to make additional copies after the first. This is an important aspect for all digital distribution methods, because you only ever have original expenses to create the material in the first place, after which profits are unending, even when they slow to a trickle. This is a snowball effect.

More importantly, this is one giant advertisement for GOG, as there will be many people who come to simply get the very cheap (or free) codes. They will have established brand awareness, and every single one is an opportunity for the sale of another product. This is the main aim for publishers, and GOG is now aiming to become a DRM-free digital publisher in the market place.

What actually happens is that GOG will accrue enough fans to remain profitable, which will compensate for any perceived loss of revenue from such promotions. Despite the numbers of people that will pay $0.01 for the game, you will still get some who will pay the full price of $9.99 or higher. This means that for every person paying full price, they are effectively buying around a thousand plus copies for others who stick to the $0.01 price minimum. With promotions like this, the aim is distribution rather than revenue, because it helps build up user support and allows for promotions like this to work. Such distribution increase potentials for future products, boosting future sales, because it gives people a chance to try something they might not otherwise have considered, and hopefully become motivated to buy the latest products.

So, everyone wins from this - gamers get cheap, even free, games; GOG and Larian Studios both get brand awareness and exposure to a larger audience; and there is likely to be boosted sales of an unfamiliar or poorly selling product that can provide an increase in revenue.

Down to $12 for all three games. I am seriously tempted here.

I agree with most of your post, but I've seen the Humble Bundle managers, as well as several devs on Indievania, state that purchases of 0.01$ actually lose them money. There is a fixed fee that is applied to every Paypal transaction, IIRC it's either 0.05$ or 0.30$ depending on the way your set your account up. You have to pay this fee even if it's larger then the volume of the transaction.

Nergal01: Down to $12 for all three games. I am seriously tempted here.
Hold on... if they had hopes to sell 150000 copies.. is because they think this will get cheaper than 10$ (initial price?)... there are still 5 days more... and it is possible to have it for less. But i must say that 12 is not a bad price for the bundle... My fair price is 6.50$... for the 3 of them, because now i can have the first two por almost 6$ and my pc cannot run the third, but if i buy only the first two it is not an appealing offer.. so.. i want the three for almost the price of two... :P
