Man that would be awesome. I THINK it was this book was my first introduction to the gelatinous cube (might have been one of the other ones)

Yeah in the late 90's when it came out. The real pool of radiance came out around 86.I bought it at release, like a true fan.

Ahh...
You can try here: Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor (Windows)
Your mileage may vary with the game though.

They did for both divinity original sin. They have limited content(just the first town basically, in the first game iirc it was most of the first town area, for the 2nd it stopped at escaping fort joy I believe) and use that to test combat mechanics, UI ergonomy and multiplayer code(not sure if BG3 will have that but you know). It also guarantees the first area in the game that new players play first is insanely polished, which is good for first impressions/press reviews(for the lazy asses who don't finish the games they review) and stuff.
Personally I skipped both because I don't like replaying an area over and over and I'm already going to be doing that at launch until I figure out my setup and stuff, but it's not new for them and it works well enough I think.

Plus, by the time you get to the second part (after Fort Joy, for instance) you'd be so ridiculously out leveled for the rest of the content. Meh, I'll prolly buy the game as soon as it gets to early access, but that's just to show the developers that I support them. And they actually have a game coming, unlike others I could mention.

Not really, there's a finite amount of xp in divinity(and in BG iirc), you can't "grind" because mobs don't respawn, best thing you can do is murder everyone in town, but that's something you can do at any point anyway even after the game releases, and even that doesn't give too much xp because the xp per level scales pretty agressively. And once you play live unless you decide to say escape fort joy without doing any sidequests, you'll probably end up doing the same things anyway, clearing every sidequests, talking to everyone and trying not to miss anything, at least that's how I play. So you'll end up at the same level.
More importantly though I'm 99% sure they wiped characters at launch, so it was a moot point.
The EA for Divinity 2 was mostly good to check out skills and builds before launch, iirc I installed it the day before launch to check out things and try to organize my party build beforehand. The wikis and all that tend to be garbage so checking ingame is a big advantage if you're into preplanning stuff ahead of time like I like doing. I think I didn't even get off the boat, I just tested some mechanics and some skills and see how I should do things.
Larian is a good studio so I trust their decision. I'll be glad to get an early look at how the game "feels" in action
