Quoting: DrMcCoyNitpick: it's not "h a c k m u d", but "ｈａｃｋｍｕｄ".

The former is just the normal ASCII latin characters with spaces inbetween. This is not it.

The latter is CJK "fullwidth [External Link]" forms of the latin characters, i.e. each character takes up the space a CJK character would use. In fixed-width fonts, that would be the space of two usual "halfwidth" characters.

But how do you pronounce it? :O

I always found the fishing to be fine. Some fish escape, even at higher levels (when your catch bar is bigger), but the challenge makes it more fun.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to the update. I don't give a damn about Shane, but it'll be nice to see Emily's character get fleshed out a bit. The new farm maps are a cool idea too. I've heard a rumour that we'll actually be able to brew mead in the 1.1 update too! Woo!

EDIT: btw, if you're rapidly clicking during the fishing minigame, then you're doing it wrong. Hold the left mouse button to raise the catch bar, release to let it lower.

Quoting: WorMzyAwesome news! I've been replaying the previous game in Crossover (works perfectly, btw) to rekindle my interest in the series. Gonna be looking forward to this!

When I tried to play it on Crossover 15 I got a black screen, how did you proceed?

I probably should've clarified that you need to disable DX11 in the options (Steam has a separate option to launch the config manager, if you didn't install through steam then you might need to manually edit an ini somewhere).

It looks like the Sega Game Gear, hopefully it doesn't have the same battery problem that did!

From the second video it looks like they brought Windows-based devices with them to Gamescon, hopefully they also brought SteamOS-based ones too so people could see how well that worked. I do like that the price for the SteamOS variant is much lower than the Windows one.

Fuck 'em. If they want to play silly buggers with us, then they can say goodbye to any money they would've otherwise gotten from me.

Still more punctual than a Transpennine Express train. :O

Damn fun game. I'm not sure I can justify spending £7 on four new characters though. I'll add it to my wishlist and hope for a sale.

Reminds me of Azure Dreams, an utterly brilliant monster-training, dungeon-crawling RPG from the PSX era. Something to keep my eye on for sure!

Oh well, other companies want my money, so they're the ones who will get it.
