What was the Update?

[Floetz]

Hi, I just downloaded a 528MB Update, unfortunately I am not able to test and didnt find any news yout, but is the definitive edition patch already out? I thought the release in germany is tomorrow?

[Silverthorn]

most likely, a pre download for the difinitive edition. Prolly a change to the launcher, since they are doing it differently this time. only segregating certain files instead of having to downlaod two complete games liek last Div.
My 3 cents.

I got excited when i saw that DOS2 needed an update, i thought we might have been getting the definitive edition a day early.

As i got multiple Updates at the same time of the same size for different games just steam updating some runtime installer (DirectX, DotNet or somthing like that)

edit: I've looked up what got updated and it is DotNet

The DE is a new game in your Steam Libary which needs a new installation... its the same like the Divinity Original Sin Classic and Enhaced Edition.So you can install the DE tomorrow

The Definitive Edition

As Kickstarter backers, you should already have Divinity: Original Sin 2 in your Steam or GOG library. Once we go live on the 31st, the game will update, adding a launcher window that will let you choose between the original version of the game or the Definitive Edition.

Remember that the Definitive Edition will not be an update to the classic version -- it will be a separate entry in your Steam Library, just like with the first game.

At least that's what they've said so far via Twitter -- the new KS update sounds almost like it's just one entry after all.

So does that mean only Kickstarter backers will have that? They should really think about how they word things...

I thought it was like others have said, a seperate entry. I hope it is also, because it's nice to have a fresh set of achievements

They will definitely not do it differently for backers and everyone else. If you want fresh achievements, just reset them and start a new game.
