NDAs/Press Embargoes aren't terrifying, mostly because on certain website frameworks you can write up your story and then set it to release automatically at x:xx o'clock. It can be annoying when you have a game and have to scout for people to have information. Even if there was no embargo I wouldn't be able to find anyone to play with :P
I meant terrifying more in the sense that most of us take it for granted that we can get on the internet and talk to anyone about anything at any time, so the thought of knowing something and not being able to freely discuss it is a bit claustrophobic. Though maybe it's more scary in theory than in practice.
I can remember Haggis an episode or two back saying his fingers were very sore from typing up the review so quickly on the day of release. 3 hours, so long as you're not at the beginning, should be ok if you're quick-witted. Hell, if you're naughty, you could plat 3/4 of it and write the review as if you'd played the whole thing. It's not as if a review is supposed to reveal the ending, after all.
Be ware that the first game is impossible unless you know about fairy tales and folklore, I consider this a major weakness to the game. :rolleyes:It's not all about puzzles, alot of the puzzles are external and disconnected from the game. Make sure you know all about fairy tales before you play, I dread that about the game.
I hope the second isn't as stupid.
I'm pretty decent when it comes to fairy tales, and I'm at the end of the first game.
Woot just got my copy of Rise of the Pirate God a few hours ago, and I'm already stuck, and there's no walkthrough till the game's out, and I have a review to write.
/rant
/sigh
PM me if you're still stuck. I beat the game this morning.
It's the Power of Voodoo, I feel it..... the game is out somewhere.... it is.....indeed.....J-o-u-r-n-a-l-i-s-t-s......
P-r-e-s-s......... arrrggghhh....... :eek:
Then it is now official. I will ignore and not visit this board until I played and finished episode 5.
I'm afraid of spoilers from the "press" people here *glares around*
You know, the very end (post-credits) scene is missing in the press copies. So we really don't know, haha. I'm eager to see it myself.
Right...I doubt that the ending will be a cliffhanger then...Aaah, can't wait!
Just tell me / us one thing: Does chapter 5 beat chapter 4 in terms of epic quality?
What I'm saying is that press hasn't even seen the very end yet.
I wonder if TTG did that because the final scene wasn't ready, or because they wanted to keep it back for the general release? I think it was probably the latter.

Yeah, they probably did it because the end is sooo awesome the press people would forget about their embargo and just blab it out to us.
Oh, that's nice. ^.^ I can't wait :mad: I want to invent a device to fast-forward time, anyone with me? *runs around*
Such a device already exists, it's called alcohol and comes packaged in nice little cans och bottles. The only drawback is that the time jumps are not very exact and there is a chance you might loose your pants or other valuebles during the ride.

Maybe, but as a reviewer it's always better to play the game fully so you'll have a better understanding of how it all works, etc.

Stop posting in here you....cursed pre-release-gamers!!! Aaah!! *biteshernails*
I hope there will be another season!
Well...does the end of chapter 5 somehow promise that there'll be more? :cool:
No! No! Don't tell us!
Can't wait for season 2. :cool:
That's no use. I can speak through my gills as well, you know.

Uh oh, maybe it's like the ending to the Sopranos....cut to black then nothing.

No, Telltale told us there will be something there in the proper release. What I'm saying is that press hasn't even seen the very end yet.
