Only 5 hours left!

suko_32 · (05-31-2012, 12:11 PM)

I will be nabbing this game as soon as I get back from work!

Volcynika · (05-31-2012, 12:18 PM)

I MUST HAVE THIS.

RyougaSaotome · (05-31-2012, 12:36 PM)

You can't see me right now but I'm currently lighting a bonfire in my apartment in anticipation.

Ok, maybe I'm not. But it's the thought that counts.

Aeana · (05-31-2012, 02:51 PM)

Where's the excitement~? :(

Don't think so.

I think they've said they're happy with it's performance but didn't give any specific numbers.

You can't buy it now since it isn't up on the store yet, but you can buy it via the website whenever you want [as soon as it goes up] and download it later, yes.

I was asleep, dammit. Now I'm all hype. For reals, dawg.

chaosblade · (05-31-2012, 03:32 PM)

I'd probably be more hyped if I hadn't played it yet. But it will be nice to have on my Steam account rather than having to run the Groupon version through applocale, and it will be nice for friends to be able to pick it up (they'll probably all wait for sales though).

GasProblem · (05-31-2012, 03:32 PM)

European release today as well? And it going to be 12,99 like Felghana?

DimmuBurgerKing · (05-31-2012, 03:33 PM)

Psh. Forget waiting for a sale. I need this injected directly into my veins!

"$19.99/€15.99/£12.99/399 rubles"

Price for other regions should probably be included in the OP. :p

Origin is priced higher than Felghana - €15.99 to be exact.

chaosblade · (05-31-2012, 03:33 PM)

It's a bit more than Oath in every region, €15.99 in Europe.

Eusis · (05-31-2012, 03:34 PM)

It's the first English release unlike Oath, so it's not a huge surprise really.

You're not the boss of me.

CecilMcW00t · (05-31-2012, 04:34 PM)

30 minutes to go! I'm so excited, that I made some iPhone wallpapers from the ones on the official website.

I'm guessing for the big splash page about Max Payne 3! Especially given that's also still in the pre-load stage (why the fuck did it start pre-loading an hour ago? Idiots must've forgotten T3 speed isn't the standard.)

EDIT: Wait, that game will unlock in 11 hours? What in the hell?

What will?

Allz I know is that Max Payne is a damn chickenhead.

Chacranajxy · (05-31-2012, 05:14 PM)

Whyz it still not up? This is getting as stupid as the republican party.

Max Payne, though it'd be obvious since it's that or Ys Origin, and Ys Origin isn't shown on the store at all currently.

CecilMcW00t · (05-31-2012, 05:21 PM)

Blargh... Come on Steam... >_<

Gunsmithx · (05-31-2012, 05:23 PM)

yup looks like steam is screwing with us.

Time to do some cleaning while I wait, lord knows how long it'll be now.

chaosblade · (05-31-2012, 05:37 PM)

Up.

Who even cares?

Took so goddamn long that I lost interest.

I'll play it later. First, Ima go shopping to get proper threadz to play radical video games in. Maybe I'll pick up some slut to watch me play the game while I'm out. I don't even know.

Aeana · (05-31-2012, 05:40 PM)

I have purchased it. It is downloading.

Jucksalbe · (05-31-2012, 05:42 PM)

Bought. :)

Netto-kun · (05-31-2012, 05:44 PM)

Aaaah yes, there we go.

Zaraki_Kenpachi · (05-31-2012, 05:44 PM)

This is just the first Ys game right? Wasn't oath $5 cheaper?

Aeana · (05-31-2012, 05:44 PM)

No, this is a prequel to Ys 1.

Macstorm · (05-31-2012, 05:45 PM)

This is a prequel, and the first time this one's been officially in English.

EDIT: BEATEN

Oath was $5 cheaper. But Origin isn't a remake or anything, this is the first time it's been officially released in English.

Gunsmithx · (05-31-2012, 05:46 PM)

bought and installed!

Ah, that makes sense then. I kept thinking about chronicles for some reason which was 1+2. I'll have to pick this up then.

CecilMcW00t · (05-31-2012, 05:47 PM)

Yes! Tying a belt around my arm right now and looking for a syringe.

Yeah, it's only the first continuity-wise. Order of release-wise it's the second most recent non-port Falcom Ys title.

Ah, ok. Like I said I kept thinking chronicles for some reason so I was confused with the updated art in the OP. Not sure why I thought that was being released instead.

Chacranajxy · (05-31-2012, 05:59 PM)

How long does a playthrough with one character take, approximately? Might just plow through this sonbitch in one sitting tonight. Provided enough alcohol, of course.

Koroviev · (05-31-2012, 06:01 PM)

Added to my wishlist. I've promised myself that I won't buy this until I've finished Oath. I can do this! (._.)

I just looked at my saves, and my time is usually about 4-5 hours per play, so um... add a couple of hours to that if you've never played it before. Maybe something closer to 10.

MechaX · (05-31-2012, 06:06 PM)

Hm... I want to pick this up now, but I am only an hour or two away from finishing Oath. Time to do that first.

Also, is it 5-6 hours total (which is about where I'll end up when Oath is said and done) or is it 5-6 hours per character?

Per character.

K. I have a bottle of red wine to finish, so that shall be my companion for this endeavor.

I'd stream the game, but uh... that stuff always makes the game run shitty...
