There's a prostitute in Blood & Wine that complains about clients being weird and wanting to roleplay witchers. Apparently, after the act, the clients usually ask for a card.

Both, I guess. While my questions are very much from a noob point of view, they are also informed by my experience as a PC gamer. That allows me to ask questions that your average new player wouldn't ask. While it seems to me like the tutorial is more geared towards people already familiar with Pathfinder, it's not completely undecipherable to people already familiar with games. If, for example, my wholly non gamer wife happened to pick up Pathfinder Adventures, her reaction would probably be to not even finish the tutorial. The use of game specific terminology in the tutorial without much clarification is discouraging to new players and seems like something that should be corrected. I'd say a glossary, tooltips or both might go a long way towards making things a bit more user friendly.

I have just played through the tutorial scenario and, while fun, everything seemed slightly unfathomable. Pathfinder's lingo isn't immediately clear (burying your ally is a good thing?), and while I finished the tutorial I'm still not sure about how the game works. From what I figured out the goal is to find and defeat a boss card which is hidden in one of several locations, although it can move between them. Each location has a single henchman card which you have to defeat in order to make that location inaccessible to the boss. Once you confine the boss to a single location and defeat it there, you win the game. This seems a bit too simple to me, though. In order to do all this you control a few characters (two or more?) which each have deck cards which represent things like equipment, powers, or allies. Characters also possess not-card abilities which you can use whenever you want? I'm not sure about this. I'm also not clear on whether these characters level up, or how their abilities are defined. Can you create characters from the start or are they always unlockables or purchaseables? I also don't know whether locations are more or less generic, or whether they follow some kind of specific builds. Are certain characters better prepared to tackle certain locations? Are there support characters which shouldn't tackle locations alone? Does anything happen to a location if you go for too many turns without interacting with it? Is there a disadvantage to tackling locations one at a time with your whole party?

I have just installed this on my tablet and I thought there might as well be a thread that collects people's thoughts on the game. I haven't done anything with it yet, other than navigating the settings and the store. I'm currently staring at the first welcome message in the tutorial. Everything seems to be very responsive and quick. I'm on a Mipad, a 7,9" Chinese tablet with a Tegra K1. The music is great, and the art style is very nice too. I've never ever interacted with anything Pathfinder related, so that's where I'm coming from. From what I've read from other people online this means I may have trouble understanding some things in the tutorial. Let's see what happens. Feel free to post your impressions here as well, of course.

Meganecromancy cast on thread! I'll be moving next week so I took the opportunity to take an updated picture of a few games in my collection. Bask in its puny glory.

Timely thread. I currently live in Portugal, as I have for the past 17 years but, I have trying, for the past 6 months, to get a job in Sweden. In fact, I'll be in Sweden next week to meet with a prospective employer. Things are looking good, and I may move to Gothenburg in March.

I've been trying to get Alpha Protocol to work at 3440x1440 and the menus come out all zoomed in, to the point where you can't see the lower buttons on the screen. anyone at Obsidian has an inkling on how to solve this?

A friend of mine bought a Lenovo Yoga tablet for his wife, and he told me it was great. Very ergonomic, apparently. It's an Android, though.

A local PC hardware store.

Title fixed. For posterity!

It is glorious.

My pledge pushed the Kickstarter over 45000. Another signed Obsidian item for my collection.

The collector's box has arrived. Highlight's are the book and the box itself. The mousepad is also quite good, unlike the cloth map which is somewhat lacking. The T-shirt is ok. I'm still waiting for an Obsidian T-shirt and a deck of cards to arrive. Oh, on my Avellone sig the Pillar got arrow to the knee. I'm starting to accumulate an embarrassing collection of Obsidian autographs.

The wife reports that one of my packages has arrived.

And here we go!

The same thing happened to me. Contact Paradox at webshop@paradoxplaza.com

FYI, I the email address I used was webshop@paradoxplaza.com. I also sent a report to Obsidian, who haven't replied yet but may have expedited things with Paradox.

1 day.

After my complaint Paradox replied that they managed to correct the address on one of my orders, and that they'll send a second package in substitution of the one that was sent out with wrong address. Fast and appropriate reply from Paradox. Nice.

I just got an email from Paradox stating my second T Shirt and the playing cards are on the way. No mention of the actual Collector's Edition. On top of that Paradox has managed to screw up my delivery address, as the building number and floor aren't included, which means the items are being shipped to nowhere at all. I am not amused.

The collector's book was never a strategy guide. You got the hard copy of the lore/world book.

Not these days, no. Go for it if you can afford it.

Also, a Dell U3415W is on the way, and a GTX970 is probably on the cards as well, so that I can power that gargantuan beast of a monitor. I'm thinking of using the old ssd and graphics card to start off a PC build for the kids' movies and games on the TV.
