Wll in this case, not realy a direct relation. This divinity game was already in the mind of sven and on the works by larian much before the kickstarter 2012 revolution
But yes, i agree, kickstarter made the whole roots-concept much more solid all-round for PC gaming, that there IS market for old-school stuff.
Probably Sven / larian now thinks its much "safer" to make this divinity after seeing the kickstarter sucesses.
