So, the release date for this is now September 19th.
I have a copy of this through my Eternity kickstarter pledge - does anyone know if I install the game via Steam now, it will just patch when it is done or is the copy I have access to some kind of backer beta and I'd need to reinstall next month?

The Steam beta will upgrade to the full version at release.
(Atleast that was the official word from the backer beta update back in June.)

I'm very excited! I own it already but I haven't really touched it much. Can't wait.

I'm really looking forward to this. I enjoyed both Shadowrun Returns games and this reminds me a lot of those games. Or am I wrong in thinking that?

That trailer looked great. I started a new game of Fallout today.

Which Fallout? Plain old first Fallout? Or some other Fallout like 3 or New Vegas? I wasn't able to get plain old Fallout to run on my laptop but I haven't tried on this computer. Maybe I will. :)

I have this on my Steam. Should I just wait for official release or is the version now current for enjoying? |

Wait. It is worth making sure everything is in, and they delayed the release for a reson. Also, beta saves might not work once it launches.

Yes, Real Fallout, not Fallout: Terror From The Deep. |

You didn't say why. So... why? I don't buy games where it can be successfully argued which side of room temperature the IQ of the Community Manager sits. There was a post where they whined about how they wished they could ban the entire steam community from posting on their community pages, something about mouth breathing entitlement nature, and then posted essentially the same thing on a thread on their steam forums. I'm still disappointed I didn't receive a badge for getting a moderators post moderated. |

Not sure about the mouth breathing, but entitlement is a problem these days. If I remember correctly, one of us here on f13 used to be Community Manager for a big MMORPG, until he told some obnoxious and entitled poster on the official boards to actually go fuck himself or something like it. Can't quote anything specific, but I gave him a standing ovation for that. |

It is entirely different to comment on amazement of the ability to coherently speak with a mouthful of dick regarding a particular poster, than to insult the user base of a gaming platform on the same gaming platforms community page for the game your marketing on their platform. |

Really, that's what is going to stop you from playing a game that could be a lot of fun? Something that's just so...irrelevant?

The only time I care if live management, etc. are dumb with a game is if it helps me understand why the game is dumb. Or why the game was potentially brilliant and then got turned into shit. A great game with douche community managers is...a great game with douche community managers. The douche managers don't matter in that case, because they don't explain anything except themselves.

I wish they made this for a console. I almost never know that someone is a dick until I read it here. Being really bad with names, I nearly always forget who is associated with what game. Except Brad. So dickiness is not usually something I'm aware of when I buy a game. I guess if that was really important to me, then I would have never listened to any music by Robert Fripp or Roger Daltry or any of the many many asshole musicians. Now if I had read that they did something really horrible to someone, I'd probably (hopefully) remember and avoid their stuff. Maybe. Depends. Good thing or no, I don't seek out stories about game devs or musicians or celebs and their never ending nonsense.

At a guess because they (I assume) promised to "engage" with their kickstarter backers and then figured they needed somebody to run that circus while they tried to actually develop the game they promised. |

Oh right, crowdfunded. Which explains why they want me to pay AAA rates for it. |

AAA rates? I think it's gonna be 15$ when it'll be released next week.
EDIT: It's 45$ now because that's what crowdfunders paid for to get in the beta.

It's OK, I love that face. Also, there's a chance they will pull some last minute bullshit and price it at 25$ claining 15$ was only for the backers. |

I might pay $25 for it but I'll wait longer for the bugs to fall out.

Countdown to horrible game breaking bug threads in Steam, that these things always have?
