Pay what you want, grab up to 3 excellent RPGs, support Larian Studios!

Quick summary:
1. Set your own fair price.
2. Get up to 3 Divinity Games, including Divinity II: Developer's Cut.
3. Own some of the games? No problem--you'll get the gift codes to give to friends.
4. Bonus for you:
* enjoy exclusive access to Divinity II: Developer's Cut one day before the release
* tons of goodies for all the games
* unlock special videos from Larian Studios

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!

Well.. im glad that gog is experimenting with this type of promotions. Maybe we will see big bundles at fair prices.

And the price of Beyond is slowly decreasing (maybe by some 0.01$ Divinitys). For this promotion it will be nonsense if the first two are not available at less than 5.99$... Divinity 2 has lost sense now with a price that surpasses the normal price of that game on any other market...

Lexor: Still the same "weird thing" as before - try to enter $18.00 (its above $17.99) and DII logo goes gray.

Ubivis: Maybe it is just my browser (latest Chrome), but I have some seconds after changing the price to 18.00 and during this time I can press the buy button and have the game in my cart at 18.00. EDIT: Okay, just changes to (pay above $18). So does not work anymore ;)
Now it does not work with $18.01 :D Just wait a few seconds and DII logo goes gray again...

I suggest that everyone should buy at least 10 or more Divine Divinity copies. Each for a few cents. It'll help to lower the average price of the bundle and therefore more people might buy it. Basically, if you want to pay less than the current average go and buy 100x Divine Divinity for 0,01$ xD. It'll require some hard work but eventually it'll be worth it.

Maybe it is only waiting, but it is misleading.

What a weird promo from a money saving standpoint:

1. Divine Divinity for $0.01 -> This is actually interesting

2. Divine Divinity + Beyond Divinity for $11.92 -> Pointless, already almost the regular price of both games ($11.98); you're better off buying DD for $0.01 and then BD for $5.99

3. All three games for $18 -> Also interesting because Divinity II: DC is $19.99 (but pointless if you already own DD and BD, you only get the gift and $1 discount)

pyrrhicvictor: This doesn't really seem like much of a deal at all, GOG. I've always shopped with you because your deals are straightforward. This seems like trying to trick people into spending more than they otherwise would for what are ultimately rather inconsequential benefits. I'm hoping this is just a weird experiment rather than something you intend to repeat. Also, I've already got Divine Divinity and Beyond Divinity. There's really nothing to this deal for people like me.
Yeah, a normal promo would give 50% or 60% off each game, which would benefit me a LOT more. And after being $5 like a 100 times Divinity 2 is not worth $20, "director's cut" or not.

keeveek: You know, that's the point of bundles. You shouldn't buy a bundle for only one game from it.
People often do just that, though. That's how people end up with 8 copies of Torchlight, because the bundles were good enough deals that it was worth buying them even if you only wanted 1-2 games from them. One reason the HIB does so well is because it's usually worth beating the average just for a single game.

keeveek: By the way, the prices are already going down.
Only the BD average. The Div2 average is still going up.

And such suggestion only proves that promo design is just wrong. Promo should encourage people to pay more by itself, not to pay less... sigh.

I don't get it, is this some kinda social experiment? Or a way to discover and poke fun of the stingiest person on GOG? That being said, Sven Finke's (is that how you spell it?) blog is probably the most honest and incitement one of it's kind on the internet, it kinda opened my eyes a bit to how money and indie development works in the game industry. I read that Larian plan to release Dragon Commander and Original Sin so they can pool enough money to begin work on a planned "Super Mega RPG" in the future.

Divine Divinity is a classic, Beyond Divinity is simply not worth it.

gyokzoli: I didn't get gift code for Divine Divinity although I got a gift email about this game (without any codes).

Kunovski: look into "My Games" and "Gift"
Ahh, thanks!

1. Seems so.
2. Yes, see FAQ:
I own some of the games. What happens when I make an order? Sure! If you own some of the games, the extra copies will be sent to you in a gift code you can give to anyone you like.
3. Probably as many as these begging for a free game in a certain forum thread for no reason.
