    Can't wait. Kept getting confused on the date though and that has brought on nothing but upset and heartbreak.
    what kind of nation should we build? a good nation? a nation of plenty? a nation of muffled joy?

    I don't know whether to take the plunge or not. Still undecided. Looks great though.

    Really hyped for this, even for the watercolour art alone I'd get it. Even made a thread about it when I discovered one of the trailers a while back. Just to get things straight it's downloadable only for a pretty small price right?

    Yep. I believe it's going for 15 USD.

    I'm almost sold on getting it for PS4. Will probably wait just to see the initial fan reaction.

    I really cant wait to play this game, only £11.99 on steam... cant wait till I get paid on friday! I have been wanting to play this game since months ago, the art direction is stunning.

    On a side note I hope it's a decent length, I have a horrible suspicion that it is going to be short like Fable was.

    Apparently it's only about 11 hours long, because well, it was made by 20 people. Hence the price tag etc, it's not an AAA title that had loads of resources thrown into it.

    I'll take 11 hours of awesomeness over 40 hours of filler-ed goo any day! Let's just hope it's not 11 hours of filler-ed goo. Oh man we'll see.

    Will buy this when I get home next week.

    Quite a few comments on the (lack of) depth to the story going around. That's a shame; I would've loved to see a game as wonderfully engaging to experience as it is to look at.

    Not bothered by 11 hours, becasue the games only 15 bucks. Were this full price that would be awful for an RPG, but it's not.

    Downloading and installing right now! (On PS3, I didn't realize when I bought it it wasn't cross-buy like the euro deluxe edition apperently was, so not playing on PS 4. )


    Edit: Also, why is this not in the RPG section?

    So played it for about 40 mins thus far:





    I really like the idea of using the Firefly as crowd control, to slow enemies or stun them to avoid encounters and the general play on light and dark.

    Although, the uPlay requirement is a bit whaff.

    The artwork is just smurfing brilliant. I don't know anything about the game, but I would love to play it just for the art.
