For those who don't know yet. Cleve posted a new piece of Grimoire news on his website yesterday. My, he's such a tease!

Final Walkthrough Begins

I am in the midst of a completely comprehensive walkthrough of the entire game, sweeping it up as I go, doublechecking everything personally, testing every chest and fountain, every secret button, pit, lever and dial.
When that is done and I have successfully completed the game in four modes without using any cheat codes, I will prepare the game for gamma testing by assembling the user acceptance team and setting up the new bugtracking facility on this site.
I don’t know when that will be. I am hoping January of 2011, first week or so, to start the new test team up with the current version.
Things are going very well right now. No crashes. No asserts or serious glitches and I am already through 20% of the total world. Lots of things to see I have not touched on in years. Rediscovered easter eggs I had forgotten about long ago. It’s fun to replay it in it’s final state.

I'm totally intrigued!

He cant possiblystart gamma test january 2011, if you look back at the old beta build floating around on p2p, he claims more than 500 hours of gameplay, i am not making that up.
Let be optimistic and consider it still have "only" 500 hours of gameplay , he has to go through 4 times, that means 2000 hours , just going through , not fixing anything .
He probably works on grimoire a good 70 hours by week, this guy is not a wanker we would know it already , his free time left dedicated to the bunker or building the death robot.
He has only december left 280 hours wont be enough...

Art direction seriously sucks.
Cleve should look at the witcher to get some truly extreme and dark visual ideas.

Forget it, this game probably doesn't even exist, and if it did, changing this kind of stuff would take another 20 years.

It's... beautiful... :sniff:

Let's raise a tankard of beer in honor of Cleve, Mondblut & other sane people.

I'm not getting my hopes up until Omega testing has begun.
