Two more days until the highly-anticipated full release of Baldur’s Gate 3 from Larian Studios! We simply cannot wait to embark on that unforgettable RPG journey, as we are sure that it will redefine the genre, just like the original Baldur’s Gate did all those years ago.

And we know that you cannot wait as well! To ease the wait, we’ve prepared a special Baldur's Gate 3 Goodie Pack which you can claim until August 4th, 10 PM UTC!

In this digital collection you’ll find a variety of Baldur’s Gate 3 themed emojis and stickers, as well as wallpapers that will fit not only different desktop resolutions, but your mobile devices as well.

Moreover, remember that if you purchase Baldur’s Gate 3 now, while it's still in early access, you’ll get Digital Deluxe Edition content for free when the game launches! It’s the perfect opportunity to secure some great additions to the game!

Oh, and if you still haven’t decided which class will you tackle first in Baldur’s Gate 3 – feel free to take our QUIZ and find out which one suits you best!

It’s almost time to gather your party, and return to the Forgotten Realms in a tale of fellowship and betrayal, sacrifice and survival, and the lure of absolute power. RPG lovers rejoice!
Hey GOG, will there be a way to tell if we're downloading the early access build or the "real" one on Thursday? Obviously I'm gonna be at my PC at 11am ready to hit download, but if you don't make it available until 11:03am or whatever I'm gonna be downloading the wrong version!

You better be, I'm sure they're gonna run out of copies fast.

The EA version is 70G, the full game is 122G
How will the deluxe edition differ from normal one? One DLC with few new portraits? Included season pass for all future DLCs which will double the size of the world?

Seems like somewhat important information to include if you want to lure me to buy it right now instead of in a few months.

From what I found, it's nothing spectacular. Few D:OS themed in-game items, starting (cheating) supplies, some out of game stuff (artwork, soundtrack). *shrug*

Good thought. If I hit install at 11:01 and it says 70GB I'll know to cancel and wait.

GOG.com: snip
The quiz suddenly requires a Facebook login in order to continue. I could do it just fine a few hours earlier and sent the link to my sister - now she reported to be unable to do it due to the Facebook requirement.

At first I thought she did something wrong, but I just tried again and also am unable to continue.

"This quiz is in no way sponsored or administered by Facebook. The information you provide will only be used for the purposes of this quiz."
If it doesn't provide any benefit, why require it?

And what is this reasoning?
"To send your answer and validate that you only participate once, please log in with your Facebook account."
Why should I be prevented from doing the quiz multiple times? Serves absolutely no purpose.

This is meant to be marketing for Baldur's Gate III.
I won't create an account with a third-party I have no desire to do any business with whatsoever to take a look at an ad.

Shame, she really likes those quiz-thingies...
I have not found a way to bypass the Facebook requirement at this time.

PS: I chose a lot of rogue-y stuff before and was recommended to be a mage. Who would have thunk!

Hey there - thanks for the heads-up, unfortunately it's still the same on my end.
(Maybe they lock the IP? But she had not done it yet and is somewhere else...)

Also tried different browsers, just to make sure. And without using any script blockers or extension and the like.

Also interesting, according to the FAQ of the service they used an account should not be required:
Do users need a Facebook account to participate?
Users do not need a Facebook account to participate. However in some rare cases, a user might be asked to log in and authorize the app. This is required when the system detects a user might have already participated in the past. Learn more on how we protect your quizzes from cheaters.

UPDATE: Still the same for her, on different browsers, PC and smartphone.
UPDATE 2: We now settled for the quiz recommended here:

UPDATE 3: Quiz works again without Facebook.

Goodie Pack received, thank you. The quiz says Sorcerer, I'm ready to embark to the Baldur's Gate journey!. GL Larian.
So.. I bought the game now, August day 2 and didn't get none of the deluxe edition items. No dice recolor no OST , digital artbook, none. How do I claim the goodies? '-'
