The Tweet explained it: their materials sucked, so they had to redo it. Would you prefer it quicker and not look as good, or wait a little bit more and have it look good? These things happened, and it's nothing I haven't heard, being the cause of a delay.

Well, the tweet is inaccurate. The last email says the end of January.

Hi, guys, just had a query - Firewatch was my first LRG purchase, and the times for orders opening were specified a bit in advance. I'd checked around, and hadn't seen anything specific for Oxenfree on the 20th - is there a specific time that LRG usually opens its orders? I wanted to make sure I was on time for it, I'd kick myself (hopefully not literally) if I was a few hours late and missed out.
Belated, but my copy of Firewatch looks fantastic. Seeing the in-game postcard brought to life was a nice touch, too.

Yeah. I didn't see an email stating it had slipped to February. Just the one about January.
Speaking of shipping boxes (and sorry if it was covered already) Do we still add a shipping box to our order, or is it added automatically after ordering a certain number of items?
Also if let's say it adds "automatically" and I added it, am I paying for it twice essentially?
I know I read something about that, but can't remember what!?

Oxenfree is not releasing on the 20th. It will either be the 27th or 3rd. LRG will update their website when the final release date has been determined. Orders always open at 10:00 am EST and again at 6:00 pm EST. Your local time will obviously vary.

Fantastic, thank you! I'll keep an eye out for the specific date.

I agree. Was pleasantly surprised by it with my last order.
Looks like Velocity 2x will be getting a physical release via badlands PS4 and Vita

Not a good time to be broke. I hope it's not limited.
I've started playing Firewatch, and it's great so far. The text is fully traduced in French too, I was pleasantly surprised 
Oh, and I received my two Oddworlds, one being... the Blue version
I don't know what to do now... I'm glad I've got a collector item, but I objectively prefer this cover. Also the edge is less readable in the Blue cover.
I'll probably sell it but it's hard to part with it.

Sorry to hear about that. I hope you'll get better :/
As for badland games, I don't think they ever limited the number of games they published...

Yeah, that's the nicest cover for sure. I got the other one unfortunately.
No big deal though.

So...open it and turn it around? You have all three covers technically.

I really love this community, all the sympathy makes me feel a lot better, so thank you
. That's great news then, so I can pick it up eventually without having to pay scalpers. One of the best Vita games released so I'm glad it's getting released physically.Yeah, that's the nicest cover for sure. I got the other one unfortunately.
I find the LE cover to be the worst looking of the bunch.

The face one is my least favorite, and of course is the one I got. Oh well.

Why I said oh well. Since I open mine it wasn't a problem. :3
Hey, you here! Welcome! My favorite release so far was One Way Heroics, definitely.
Shadow Complex and Stranger's Wrath are legitimately great games IMO. Really looking forward to playing Firewatch, Volume and Oxenfree too but one just arrived, one hasn't been released and one will be shipped whenever SkullGirls ships.

Good taste. Ended up in my top 10 for GOTY. Not sure it's my favorite game they've released since I already liked Soldner X-2 and Stealth Inc so much, but since One Way Heroics was an all new game to me when they put it out, it was a huge surprise.
I'm so glad they did that one or I might've let it pass by until some super dirt cheap PSN sale and just throw it on the backlog.

Great to see that Velocity 2x is getting a physical release. Has a date been confirmed yet?
Thanks! I signed up right when I got a college student email and after 6 months, it got accepted.

Why hello.
Oddworld Stranger's Wrath is my favourite release so far. Followed by Soldner X-2, then One Way Heroics.
Hello
I haven't really played OWH. I did enjoy Doug messing around with the swear filter.

It's a three-way tie for me. Firewatch might edge things out because of the map and since it's the only LRG release to get more than one playthrough in my house. My wife watched me play, fell in love, and wanted to give it a shot herself. I'm thrilled to have physical copies of their two Shantae releases as well. I hadn't played either of those before.
Yeah. I own both of the Shantae games on Steam and enjoyed playing through them. I'll be honest, I never heard of Firewatch until LRG announced it and I watched Markiplier played it and I fell in love with it.
Also The Swapper! Had this been announced? I thought Oxenfree would be my only purchase in the next few weeks, but I stand corrected.

All I can say is that I am glad I didn't wait on the physical release for The Silver Case before playing it. Yeesh.

Oh man. I almost died thinking about it. We want Fez physical. Such a special game deserves to be preserved.

Its an amazing game, really well done puzzles that are tough, yet fair. Vita version runs at a steady 30FPS (while PS4 one runs at 60FPS). I never had any issues with the Vita version, runs great from the several playthroughs I've done.
