RHelg224 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 So I am confuse, did the game got release or not? It was released to the media a week ago - you get to wait because .... well you mean less to Obsidian than the media does and Youtubers with 28 subs. Thank you. I was feeling bad about how I was responding to you but now I can go to bed in peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mihura Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 So we still get the keys tomorrow right? I really do not see what is the big deal or I guess I am just used to the Europeans getting it 3 days latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!" Also, Paradox gave that guy a key, not Obsidian. You can at least bother to read the updates before spouting off bad information. Which means there were keys viable to play the game - white knight them all you like - they put backers last in their list of priorities. They're in the wrong here - no matter how pretty they can draw or how nice a story they can write - they're still treating backers like crap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah because the quality of the product we backed is irrelevant. Are you a cartoon character? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinderbox Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Game comes out tomorrow. I'm happy. I've put 50 hours into the backer beta (and even submitted a couple bug reports) and I'm really quite enjoying it now. So I'm looking forward to getting outside the Drywood sandpit. Really not sure why some folks seem to feel this pre-load thing is a terrible woe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people are on slow internet connections we're talking 100kb connections through no fault of their own just infrastructure the earlier they can start downloading the earlier their download is done and they can play with others on the day instead of waiting for the download to finish - oddly enough they could have had this downloaded a week ago it seems but we're not supposed to point that out .... because ... reasons.

RexRPGs Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 So much for saving the company right? I feel like they just **** on us. Plus, I've seen chapter two, one start. Thought people were not supposed to live twitch past chapter one or something ? Yeah, they're going to **** an awesome game on you in like a day and a half. Chill. Good lord. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palantyre Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 No, getting your copy of the game before release date unlike other customers is most certainly extra stuff. You WILL get your copy of the game that you paid for, WHEN it is released, JUST like other customers. 1 ~And the Lord said unto John: Come forth, and receive eternal life!

You didn't buy the game, you backed it--and early access that wasn't promised is free stuff. Logic doesn't seem to be your strong suit. Passion, on the other hand, you have in spades.

RHelg224 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 It's almost like some people felt they had defloration entitlements to the game or something. That their experience will be somehow cheapened now that another group got into the game before they could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You WILL get your copy of the game that you paid for, WHEN it is released, JUST like other customers. Oh so you've dropped the free - now we just need to work on you recognizing extra Obsidian was given money by backers for essentially an idea on paper with no working model just the reputation of their developers. Now they did what they were paid to do for sure the game is probably complete and a lot less buggy and working well. There is a release date and it is able to be purchased by anyone now. However a company that really really REALLY likes its fans and backers would have gone above beyond just making the game and filling out orders and let everyone who backed enjoy the game as soon as it became playable. They chose to put the media before backers and the backers on par with first time buyers which is wholly their right to do, but it does by virtue of action mean backers are not important or appreciated by them. We're just ATM's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're just ATM's. That's certainly one way to interpret it, I guess. And while I agree with the complaints that there could have been better communication by times, I certainly don't agree with your interpretation of Obsidian's actions. So I guess you'll be moving on and not bothering with Obsidian or their forums anymore, then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calyps0 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) Anyone know how big the download size is? Will this game be comparable in size to Baldur's Gate or Neverwinter Nights? Edited March 25, 2015 by Calyps0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HozzM Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Media/reviewers getting keys ahead of backers is fine. Randos who bought the game on Steam tonight getting keys ahead of KS backers who paid for the game in October of 2012 is not. In the end assuming you can pre-load ahead of the unlock, it does not matter. But..."I had to warn you too many times about my money, Smokey. You see, it's the principle of the whole thing. There's principalities in this." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
