TheSentientSword Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Is there an update on when we can expect the Novella? The Kickstarter Campaign estimated April 2014 (clearly not possible) but now it has been six months since release (March 2015) and the first expansion has launched. When can we expect to receive the novella that many of us have purchased? Note: I am genuinely curious, not mad. 1
eLeF Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Is there an update on when we can expect the Novella? The Kickstarter Campaign estimated April 2014 (clearly not possible) but now it has been six months since release (March 2015) and the first expansion has launched. When can we expect to receive the novella that many of us have purchased? Note: I am genuinely curious, not mad. It's not just you then? My product page still says: *** Not yet available *** As we mentioned in Backer Update #92, Chris is busy working on finishing up the novella. Stay tuned for an upcoming backer update for more information on its release date. I assumed that all these things will be available at launch. Nobody said anything about delays let alone this much. Is it still getting released?
AndreaColombo Posted October 6, 2015 Posted October 6, 2015 Yes, it is still getting released. Chris Avellone confirmed it on Twitter when a member of this forum asked; a screenshot of the tweet was posted here but I don't have a link handy, so hopefully the user will chime in. No ETA (MCA's busy finishing the WL2 novel right now, that I know of.) "Time is not your enemy.

Ymarsakar Posted October 7, 2015 Posted October 7, 2015 Editors are probably going to try to strain all the "uniqueness" out, which is why it is taking so long. Fight the Power, Chris Avellone! 1

AndreaColombo Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Ah. Well, then. Would be interesting to have an update from whomever is handling it now. 1 "Time is not your enemy.

A Vultures Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 It has been six months since the last post--is there any update? Is this novella even still happening?
Sking Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Hey (you bunch of splendiferous gamers) The plan is to release the novella along side our 3.03 patch. Sorry it took us so long. Slap hands! -Sking 10
AndreaColombo Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Sking, can you either confirm or deny that 3.03 is going to be the last patch for this game? "Time is not your enemy.

Sking Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Sking, can you either confirm or deny that 3.03 is going to be the last patch for this game? Haha, oh... you. 2
Infinitron Posted May 27, 2016 Posted May 27, 2016 Sking, can you either confirm or deny that 3.03 is going to be the last patch for this game? Haha, oh... you. Will it be downloadable here? http://eternity.obsidian.net/downloads/patches
juanval Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 That's nice to hear. Is a good moment to start reading the Novella ;D
juanval Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 The patch 3.03 is here. Have you planned a release date for the novella? Thanks in advance
AndreaColombo Posted June 2, 2016 Posted June 2, 2016 Pretty sure they meant the official release of 3.03, not the beta. The official release of a patch is always accompanied by a backer update, and the novella will be in that update. "Time is not your enemy.

AndreaColombo Posted July 21, 2016 Posted July 21, 2016 Odd; I could download it from GoG. Will check again when I'm home. "Time is not your enemy.
