With every Divinity: Dragon Commander pre-order--strategy masterpiece Master of Magic for free!

[url=http://www.gog.com/gamecard/divinity_dragon_commander]Divinity: Dragon Commander, is the upcoming innovative fantasy RTS, available for pre-order on GOG.com. Larian Studios, the developer of that title, regretfully informs, that the game's release will be delayed. Originally scheduled for July the 2nd 2013, it is now expected to arrive early in August. Our friends at Larian decided to take an extra month to ensure this ambitious and complex title meets the high standards you grew to expect from their games.

GOG.com and Larian Studios are sorry that you won't get the game in time you expected. We would like to make up for the delay and sweeten the deal a bit. To satisfy your thirst for multi-layered strategic gameplay, we would like to offer you a complimentary copy of Master of Magic one of the beloved strategy classics, with every pre-order. Whether you already pre-ordered or will do so in the future, you'll receive an e-mail from us, containing a giftable Master of Magic code that you can redeem yourself or pass on to a friend.

We hope that Master of Magic, with its legendary robust and complex gameplay, helps you through to August, when we expect Larian's RTS epic to land safely on your shelf. If you haven't yet pre-ordered Divinity: Dragon Commander on GOG.com you just got another reason to do so!

Once again, sorry for any inconvenience this delay might have caused you.

How so?

As for the delay (as shocking as it is to have a game release actually delayed), Larian is self publishing the game, so has the option to add stuff late in development. See the blog post To listen or not to listen.
I would always rather a game is released late and is a good game then early and it gets ruined.
I have enjoyed the original Divinity game and although not pre-ordering this one. I do look forward to the release to see what the game really turns out like.
I guess this is nice of GoG for those that want Dragon Commander and don't already own MoM. Don't know how Dragon Commander will turn out (I'm a bit sceptic about Larian games since Divinity 2), but MoM is a very good game, so it makes for a cool bonus.

Well, Larian does theirs best. Thanks for promotion game.
Looks like retail boxes of Dragon Commander will also come with GOG codes:

That is why I like Larian so much. They make an effort, even though sometimes they come up short. They seem to be this incredibly skilled company - programming wise - but creatively it falls sometimes in the hit and miss category.

Creativity is where they should invest in. When I see their developer videos, I want to scream that to them. :)
This definitely looks like something I would probably like, but I don't think my aging rig will run this very well. Think it might be getting near that time to build a new one.

muttly13: Thank you, personal philosophy noted. I am not sentencing someone to death, I am asking if anyone has heard different than I.

Flight mechanic seemed to be especially problematic. Anyone heard elsewise?
Just saying, you shouldn't worry so much about it. Just roll with it. If it's good, great. Otherwise, no skin off your back.

There are so many games that get released every year...

JinseiNGC224: I don't own any Divinity. Been waiting for a sale and missed the last one in February. I'm hoping for the summer sale.
I LOVE Divinity games. Reading your post makes me a sad panda...
Do you guys know about how long it takes to get the email with Master of Magic code? I just preordered and got the confirmation email, but not the MoM one.

Edit
Mine did arrive a bit later

I still don't think, that i will pre-order this.
But there is a light in the dark....with every boxed version you get a free GOG code.....
I don't suppose any kind soul could give me a Master of Magic code? :)
