Re: A question to Devs regarding consumers' behaviour and DR

I purchased the GoG version because it was DRM free and I pre-ordered it before I realized they would be selling it here. I didn't want the steam version because I HATE purchasing any game that relies on other software in order to function. A perfect example would be Battlefield 3. Not only do you h...

Re: Think of the possibilities

Telling someone to "chill out dude" isn't going to get the greatest of responses. It's derogatory and never well received. I never said I was in a hurry to get the modding tools nor did I say they should hurry and get them to us. What I am concerned with is the restrictions they are settin...

Re: Think of the possibilities

Oh I am patient. And I greatly respect what you guys do. Believe me I account for quite a few sales as I railroaded all my friends into getting the game. I even hit up a bunch of torrent sites guilting downloaders. I have faith in your product and as I said I see great potential here to have somethi...

Think of the possibilities

We are walking a dangerous line with these very harsh restrictions on modding. Personally it was one of the biggest selling points for me as I love to tinker with my games. Let's have a short walk through the past to see the power of modding. Ghost Recon, game came out in 2001 and there are still HU...

[Subforum Request] Youtube vids

Could we maybe have a sub forum here or another forum section all together for the MANY video topics started already. It isn't really creative just using fraps to record your progress and it is hard to see any new creative works with the huge amount (huge relative to number of posts here) of these s...

Re: Things the devs didn't think through

I don't think people wanting to maximize a skill tree would constitute power gaming. Do you try out for a track team but only run at 75%, do you bake food at half temp, when you enjoy a nice cold beer do you only drink half, and when you have sex (hehe, as if gamers have sex) do you only push every ...

Re: Is LoG a shameless copy of a classic?

Just like with any of the arts there will always be some level of replication. You can't escape it. But what you can do is take something that worked and expand on it and make it better. This is what we have with LoG. This guy is throwing words like "shameless" around with no real idea of ...

Re: Things the devs didn't think through

I think it is obvious to us all with the current skill system and the crippling of the modding opportunities with draconian rules (sorry guys but it sucks) they intend to release new content. That may give us the points we need but in my opinion that isn't the only problem. The current system is so ...

Re: Legend of Grimrock DVD insert / NEW: DVD label

Sorry. I thought since the official came out this would die down. But your tenacity has inspired me! I will have another look at it and see if anything else needs cleaned up.
I think they should have just let us make the official insert. :D

Re: Legend of Grimrock DVD insert / NEW: DVD label

I guess since they cleaned it up I don't have to go over it. There are still some minor things. They have it starting with "Legend of Grimrock Dungeon crawling role playing..." When it should be "Legend of Grimrock is a dungeon crawling role playing..." As for the rest some of th...
