Backer Rewards and DRM-Free Copy

[system]

Yes, since you bought from the GD web site, you will get the DRM-Free version if you want. That’s one of the perks from buying from the GD web site, especially if you missed the KS.

Great, thank you. I can’t wait to play the game.

I have the Digital Version of GD which a friend of mine gave me as a gift via Steam. Atm I lost touch with him and don’t know the code for Steam . Could I get DRM-free version upon the release? And if so how will that be done? I can provide all the necessary information and screenshots, for example, i can give the gift key from the link he gave me (maybe that helps?). Thanks

they have been pretty busy working on the version that is available… as was said, the DRM free one is a few days later and as far as patching is concerned, you will get them, it is just a matter of how, again, priorities…

because getting it a few days later makes the game you get so much worse

Giving people the choice to get it on Humble or GOG is just adding a lot of work on Crate for no good reason

biggest market, so more important, welcome to reality.

You chose to not be part of this, don’t blame Crate for your decisions. Yes, waiting a few days longer is not as nice, but it also makes very little difference.

Glad to know you care, however I was addressing the developers of Grim Dawn.

Please either send them an email ([email protected]), or post in the No-Reply Feedback Section as that is what it is for as only the devs and moderators can see those threads.

Thanks, I’m kinda tired of trying to make a point without Mamba being a troll, I’ve already messaged them but they don’t respond anyway.

Probably because they are busy for the release.

I am not trolling, I am explaining why what they do makes sense… despite what you think of it

you must definetely provide a GOG key . I never wanted a Steam key as a KS backer . Otherwise it would be a shame for early supporters .

If you were a KS backer, then you’ll get a key for the DRM-free version of GD. You’ll get that key from the Humble web site. No GOG needed.

But why they provide Steam version ? Wasteland 2 developers gave beta test version for Steam , when full version released they replaced Steam keys with GOG keys if people want . This is a proper way for customer rights .

Clearly you don’t understand… that is exactly how this works as well. No replacing needed. The drm-free key will become available (thru Humble) at some point after release here.

Not rocket science peoples.

You’re not losing anything. Even if you’ve already used your Steam Key, you can still get the DRM-free version (provided you didn’t buy the game from Steam directly)

Crate provided a Steam version mainly because it was easier to push out updates.

Wasteland 2 is not Crate/Grim Dawn - perhaps they already had all of the setup prior. I don’t know, do you?

If Crate can arrange for GOG to deliver for KS and web site backers, then I’m all for it, but based on medierra’s post - it doesn’t seem likely. GOG, it seems, is for new sales.

It is very likely GD will come out on GoG in the near future, although probably not in time for release.

We wouldn’t be able to transfer your key to that service though just on account of the logistics involved unfortunately. But, as people say, you can still claim the DRM-free build on Humble once it is available. I’m working out how to distribute it to everyone with them now, so it should be available shortly after release.

Since there was never any promise for a GOG delivery, there is no issue with customer rights.

The DRM-free version will be handled by the Humble Store.

Thanks for the update. I’ll wait patently for my DRM-free version.

I have waited for the DRM free versions of Bioshock, Trine series, Risen 2+3 and The Incredible Adventures Of Van Helsing series, so I’m good at waiting.

I’m glad to hear about the gog release. BTW gog has Galaxy, it’s own (optional) digital delivery service (in beta so far).

I plan to also buy a gog copy to show my support for Crate and to gog.

It’s an extra complication to manage both, Steam and DRM-free versions, so your commitment to the DRM-free version is VERY much appreciated.

I wish Grim Dawn to be a huge success followed by more expansions and other great new games from Crate.

and yeah it’s not east task to maintain both versions . Even Starbound developers switched to GOG from Humble Store . Better solution to use GOG for DRM-free version

Starbound sells on Steam, Humble, GOG, and GMG. They didn’t switch anything, they just added to another site to sell their game. What do you mean by this?

If you got it through Steam your stuck with Steam unless you rebuy it.

Too bad can’t afford rebuying it
