At least it was fully funded. :up:

Would have loved to have gotten a copy with the soundtrack.

Crap. I just realized that I accidentally posted this in Other. :doh:

Can a Mod please moves this to the Video Game forum?

I am a backer

Re: Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey
 

I wish I'd known of it earlier. On the official website you can still back it. Shame the physical copy is over $100 as that's the one I want.

It was talked about on the Ultimate Kickstarter Thread:

I was going to back it..then I realized my KS backed game log was way too big..and there was no way I could play all of these games.

I really need to actually read that thread rather than skim it on rare occasions.

Awesome, I never heard about this. :S

It's now also getting a PS4 release.

Thanks for the bump. I had completely lost track of the progress of this. I absolutely loved The Longest Journey (definitely one of those games you could point to in the defense of the "video games as art" debate). Dreamfall had many positive attributes, but a gigantic killer negative:

GOG is getting ready to distribute the game on their site: http://www.gog.com/game/dreamfall_chapters_season_pass

First episode is out. I am going to DL it tonight. I hear it takes about 5 hours to beat, but since there are 5 episodes being released that is not bad overall for the quality of these games.

Re: Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey
 

That's 2.5 hours longer than the typical telltale chapter. I wonder if there are actual puzzles in this like old PnC games or if they've gone the interactive novel route that so many people seem to associate as modern adventure gaming.

Anyone play it yet? Was it worth the wait?

Re: Dreamfall Chapters: The Longest Journey
 

I finally finished this! After ending Dreamfall on a cliffhanger, there was no way I was touching this "Chapters" until the entire thing was finished and polished off.

I was nice to finally have an ending to the story (while leaving things open for more stories in this universe). Thankfully they ditched the dodgy stealth and combat gameplay from the last game. Instead it was a mix of traditional adventure game puzzle solving (relatively easy, especially compared to 90s classics of the genre) and TellTale style branching story decisions.

There were some really good moments. And, like the last two Longest Journey games, there were moments where some dialog and cut-scenes long outlasted their welcome, droning on and on. I'm glad I finally got a chance to play it. I'd say it was a must-plan for fans of the first two games. Though it seemed surprisingly inaccessible for people that didn't play the other two games (particularly Dreamfall), especially since they were so long ago. I thought I remembered them pretty well, but found the story getting muddled at times (and I kind of regret not playing them both again right before playing this).
