I think this was one of the final games I backed on Kickstarter. It's late, I'll check tomorrow.

I wish they'd just release it. It was slated for early/mid 2017 and we're at the end of the year and they're still firing out EA updates.

To be fair, I did crumble and buy Oxygen Not Included in EA, and it's amazing. But I don't want to ruin this, Rimworld, or the many other titles I'm waiting to spend money on if they'd only just hurry up and release their product!

Quoting: fedotixIs there a specific date of release for the linux version ?
I don't think they've said anything yet - which is a bit depressing cos I really want to buy this one as an official release. And it's 60% off too.

Quoting: KuromiI play this game for, like, 5-6 hours and more or less like it. There is definitely weak point in this game - certain lack of variety in action, little unfair enemies (with better aim and coming in packs), very small variation in weaponry - as i mentioned i liked 3089 (3079 too) and one point i liked it is ability to assemble your gun from spare parts - with enough effort it was possible to make ultrasniper rifle with explosive bullets or something like that, but not in Tolva.
That i like is certain mystery and exploration parts. I like these tranquil silent fields. I like these ancient derelicts.
Its not best game ever and its doesnt ring "WOW", but i feel like finishing it.
I finished in about 7 hours, so you should be pretty close. It has its flaws, but I loved the experience. With a bit more polish and more variety in the guns and enemies, this could have been an absolutely massive hit. As it stands, I highly recommend it, but agree with much of what you say.

No regrets though, and I might very well go back for another run.

Quoting: liamdawePlayed it on stream tonight, as it replaced ATOM RPG, which I wasn't feeling up for reading all the dialogue (I have a cold, ergh).
Gesundheit! (*)

(*) My dictionary says this would be used at least in the US - is it?
Yep, US-only as far as I know. In Britain, it's more common to say 'bless you' after someone sneezes. But not as a note of sympathy for someone who has a cold! If you did that, you would just sound very old fashioned and religious! :D

Quoting: stretch611Installing now... Bought it during the Klei sale 2 weeks ago...
I think that would count as a Windows sale, which is a shame. I can't remember exactly how it works - most played platform in two weeks? What if you've never played it?

Ah, well. I got the sale price too, which is a bonus, but I'd have paid full price for this, despite it being Early Access. Klei games tend to be worth every penny.

Reassembly was superb, but its interface wasn't the best. This looks like an excellent step up. Will buy the moment it's released.

Project 5: Sightseer looks like a brilliant open-world sandbox game, releasing next month

Quoting: devlandMisleading title. The game is not being "released". The early access campaign is being started and final product will differ greatly if it will even get finished.

Please stop labeling early access campaigns as "releases".
There's a giant orange "EARLY ACCESS" tag on the main page, and again at the bottom of the article. The title itself doesn't need to make the distinction - indeed, if it did, it would probably muddy up searching the site as so many titles would include the words.

I don't care for Early Access either 9 times out of 10, but I do like to see what's coming down the road.

Goddam. Another insta-buy. My wallet is a pale shadow of its former self. Really, really looking forward to playing this - and the amount of content they've released for it since the original Youtube LetsPlays and Mac release is astounding. Can. Not. Wait.

Well, actually I can and my bank account thanks me for it.
