I've used both and both work fine. I don't think the GG limitation should keep you from playing this. I doubt this game will ever make it to Steam. Might end up on Stardock though.I think I'll wait to see if it comes out on Steam. So far I haven't used another download site yet and would rather keep everything under one roof so to speak.
Just a word of warning with the new client-free download. I wanted to go to bed so I "paused" the download...came back this morning and it resumed fine. I wanted to do some RPGWatch updates and the 'net was too slow, so for some stupid reason I clicked "stop" rather than "pause"...1.7Gb of completed download wasted.
Yep - that happened to me with Beyond Divinity ... but I have a fast enough connection that it was OK.
I can confirm it has the 4gb textures.
Yep, in Oz and it worked fine from GamersGate (if slow). It's blocked in NZ? Really? I'm surprised they can tell the difference between us.
