Yo Vault Dweller any plans for traditional patching blitzkrieg in the following weeks and months? If yes imma get it on Gaben since GoG is absolutely hopeless for frequently updated games.
It's very stable, so far no issues or crashes (we fixed everything that was reported in the last 2 months).

By the way Iron Tower - The Age of Decadence is outselling Prison Architect and Minecraft: Story Mode on GOG right now. Well fucking done. I know those games have been out for a few days so interest isn't as high, but those games are getting a hell of a lot of coverage and I thought they'd be right beneath Witcher 3 for weeks to come.

Minecraft:SM seems like a particularly linear and QTE-heavy game even by Telltale standards, so it's no surprise that it's starting to lose steam. This might be a fine time to inform the disaffected fans of that other new CYOA release that has lots of choices and consequences +M

Will not buy till Thursday.

And congrats for getting it finally out.

From a review on gog:
All of course, obscured under the most horrifying game design choices, mechanics and philosophies that the entire industry (including Obsidian, inXile, and Larian, the current masters of cRPG) abandoned as obsolete and outdated, and made every point and pain to avoid.

Which basically translates to: This game must be awesome.

After lurking for years and recently registering on the forum, I'm using my first post here to declare my love for the release of this game. After it sat at the top of my wishlist for well over a year, I purchased it shortly after 0900 ET today. I've already told my wife not to make any plans for the next couple nights as I'll be "busy working on the computer." I don't think she still falls for that line, as she responded "did you buy another stupid game?"

Yes. Yes I did.

I convinced one other person to purchase it already, and there are likely another 3-5 friends of mine who will buy it given my recommendation. My saved games of Wasteland 2: Director's Cut, Lords of Xulima, Avernum: Escape from the Pit and Fallout: New Vegas are going to be gathering virtual dust for a while.

Great job and congratulations on the release after all these years, Vault Dweller!

Merida, again
Probably shouldn't buy it, not just yet, but the world inspired by late roman empire - I admit I was sold on that. Well then, it's 10PM in potatoland, have classes at 10AM... so... let's see how far can I get in 12 hours.

Fuck school. AoD will tech you more about life.

Man, I remember when I first found out about AoD on NMA, which was years ago, when I still browsed the site. And now I can read on the Codex that it's finally released.

A dream that took 11 years to come true. That is as inspired as it is inspiring. If you ever had any doubts, now you know that it was fucking worth it. Congratulations!

And never stop dreaming. :salute:

Never bought a game on release day. Until now. One of the reasons I kept lurking here was/is aod. Still feels weird that its finally released.

As first posts go that isn't half bad.

I stopped playing Early Access just after they released the second city so I wouldn't spoil things too much before the final release. That wait felt like an eternity because the game is great. Now that wait pays off.

Congrats ITS crew! Looks like I'm calling in sick tomorrow due to lack of sleep.

Congratulations for the release and I hope it becomes a success. You obviously deserve it.

Never heard of the game until a few days ago, though, but it's the next game I'll buy. Also, it's a nice detail that you released a huge demo. Nowadays very few developers do that.

Know what, just because I respect VD I'll try the latest demo. The last time I played this game was some early demo that was all "Let's teleport everywhere!" - I'll give the demo a fair shake and if I like it... well, it's 35 minutes until Thursday!

I went with the exact same stats. I'm sure Constitution will be used in dialogue and interactions.
Not sure if CON 5 will be that useful, but there are some particular CON checks (at least there were some time ago) that will lead to some really interesting outcomes... ;)

Dusted off my account just to join in in congratulating Vault Dweller for the release of his fine game. Well done! You deserve a trophy for sheer stick-to-it-tiveness. I wish you great success!
