[Pricing]

"Do game developers dream of electric paydays" by Philip K ****.

Or something like that.

 

I think that you Are doing good work. I really hope that this will fly!

I dream of bacon and more star wars toys

[Pricing]

StormbringerGT is correct (and I like eating, food is good) the pricing system has been something we spent a lot of time on. Nearly everything in the store can be bought with Gold which can be earned through game play or through real money transactions. This also allows for players to use one or a combination of both if they choose to!

We are keeping a close eye on the metrics during this closed beta and will be adjusting things as the numbers show problems.  There's a lot of number crunching going on behind the scenes...a lot of number crunching, I think I dream in numbers now...

Be careful what you wish for! Lindsey is an AMAZING artist.

 

 

Oh god why...

[User Perceptions on Microtransactions]

 

after 2-3 hours I think I've earned like 60-70 gold, but perhaps I'm bad), the Gold option may as well not really exist and I suspect will provide a fulcrum point of complaints. 

 

 

Could you give us about how many Banes you defeated and what scenario you got to? 

[More videos please]

I think my parents graduated college around then

 

 

Good God, I'm old!

me too! I remember that ad

 

I think my mom graduated college that year

OH! Yes there are changes like that for exactly that reason! We've been working closely with both Paizo and Lone Shark to go in and fix some of the balance, wording, and other issues from the physical game. It's actually been great being able to play the physical card game along side building it in digital, it's let us see where we can make improvements and re-balance etc. 

 In fact...that's a good chunk of my job...

Seriously, my office floor was covered with cards for about a week, had to dance to get to my desk. The wall was too, sticky notes with paperclips are awesome.

Edit: I should also note I can't talk about SPECIFIC changes just yet just that there are. 

[The future of PACG-digital (?)]

Can you be more specific?

With any physical game transitioning into a digital format there are changes that are made, it's just the nature of the change of mediums. You saw Stride during the stream which was one such example.

Side note: I have a tendency to be super vague unless you ask specifics with questions, mostly because I am still learning what you guys have concerns about and want to hear from us about.

I'm leaving them because my cat loves attention...and Star Wars

Seriously, he yells at people to rub his belly, and cuddles his Chewbacca toy

Unfortunately no, I do bring pictures of my cat wearing an R2D2 hoodie though:

We want to do all of them! I personally have a love of WotR, and am an avid tabletop player so, ALL THE THINGS.  New mechanics, cards, scenarios, etc, need to planned and placed carefully, and tested extensively.  Things that look simple or just a 'tweak' on paper sometimes have deeply complex implications elsewhere in the game and game code.

Don't worry we'll let you guys know when stuff happens! For now watch the stream (http://www.twitch.tv/obsidian) today at 4pm PST! I think you all will have plenty to be excited about.

Oh uh, I probably should note: I'm one of the Systems Designers on the team.  I'm a bit quieter but, I'll try to pop in more!
