just got home, eating a whopper in honor of cleve..

where's the 120th minute patch?

 

[Lady_Error]

Lady Error - why disagree? I wasn't thinking about throwing the current interface out of the game, but merely about adding the new one as well. You could still choose between Classic and Modern UI in the options, just like you can do now with stepping and turning. This would undoubtedly increase the potential customer base.

I think it would be too much work that needs to be spent elsewhere. And the big screen is not even practical, considering the inventory, some UI buttons and the info box would be hidden. I also doubt that the big screen would attract the right kind of customers - more likely whiners who will uninstall it after 5 minutes.

I'm positively TERRIFIED that gog's "curators" will reject this game, especially since the Steam reviews seem to be pretty poor so far.

Dammit, Cleve, I WANT to give you my money! But not if Gaben takes a 30% cut.

you're ok with giving a 30% cut to polish people but not to gaben?

why?

 

[Zep Zepo]

Has anybody tried loading a savegame from the superdemo in full game? If it works then we may not have to wait for a new demo after all.

Not bloodly likely.

However, the character library might actually be compatible, its size appears the same (rpg100.lib). If you spent weeks rolling those 8 dudes with 32 bonus and good hp/mana in superdemo, chance are, you won't have to do it again. Trying copying it from demo to complete game.

A Library editor is a feature in DECLINE. Spent 30 hours rolling a special character? Now you can copy and paste it into a new library slot.

Zep--

or just cheat engine a good roll

DECLINE is better..it has...descriptions and shit...not magical hex numbers.

Can anyone tell me if this is worth getting right now? I'm not sweating the four dollar discount, and I probably owe Cleve a full retail purchase anyway, but I don't want to waste time and money. Mostly the former.

Depends. If you don't really care for the discount, I'd wait. The game is playable and fun, but will be much easier to recommend once it loses the crashes, has an actual manual, etc.

Back from work.

Game purchased, and downloaded.

we don't like steam's crappy malware and DRM? its lack of standards? its moronic community?
what the fuck are you doing here? do you even know where you are?

Probably from /v/. They absolutely love fellating steam because they have no standards or respect for themselves or basic human decency.

Cleveland Mark Blakemore , send the goddamn keys already!

Just buy it again. When we get our keys, our Christmas shopping will be sorted. Mothers deserve some incline in their lives just as much as anyone else.

One bug and one suggestion:

1. suggestion is that when reading the story...when you reach the end the Next button is still highlighted. I would just recommend making it fade out so Exit and Prev are your only options.

2. Bug. Happened when I alt tabbed to another program. Dual monitor setup. Tried alt tabbing to a program that's on the same screen as the game. I did it a few times and the hand cursor will kinda freeze and show the image of where it was when I alt tabbed. It only copies it like a max of two times. Which is why you see 3 cursors. Also the weird buttons on either side of the screen.

If anyone gets some extra keys for whatever reason I'll gladly take you on in chess for it. 1V1 Table Top Sim!

 

[Alienman]

I will wait for the sequel.

 

[IronMaiden]

I never post, but had to this time in honor of Grimoire. It is pretty freaking good. Really takes me back to Wiz 7. Yeah it has some bugs, mine crashed trying to go into the pit in Sanctuary, but it didn't happen on reload, but what do you expect on a game this size. Spent a good 90 minutes on a party and another hour or so playing and it just "feels" right. Maybe my jock is too tight, but I think this is going to be a big fun game.

I don't need an editor because I roll well. But my friend who isn't me wants to know if this editor is available to download anywhere? Is it like the "cosmic forge" for Grimoire?

 

[Apexeon]

Its the old school fix I needed.

Masterpiece. The magnum opus of Blobbers.

I have no problem buying it again. I fully intend to gift at least a copy or two. My only concern is that the backer keys will somehow be different/tracked in comparison to retail keys. So maybe, for example, when it comes time for GOG release I won't be eligible with a regular retail Steam key attached to my account instead of a backer key. Cleve has not answered any of my attempts to gather that information from him. If he'd just let me know that there is no difference between retail and backer keys, I'll buy it immediately.

In the meantime I'm kind of in limbo toying around with my friend's copy while he's on vacation, but not wanting to put too much into it until I have it properly registered to myself.

I may be wrong, but I find it highly unlikely that it's even possible to connect a Steam copy to a GOG copy. They're competing businesses.

The best you're likely to miss is some silly "I'm a backer!" badge for you Steam account. He's had enough trouble with one version of the game without having to maintain another more exclusive version in tandem.

Personally i have all my classic CRPGs on GOG. As far as i am concerned, even if it turns out to not be good, Grimoire is a classic piece of history i'd like to have around.

Besides, a DRM-free "setup_grimoire.exe" installer is always nice to have stored on my external hard disk alongside the others.

also pretty sure it just goes by the appid on steam, so any way you own that product (steam key or store purchase) would work

What's your excuse for not buying it yourself? Kinda new to be begging for keys.
