Are the keys available yet for regular backers, or just for early access?
You can redeem the game now but it remains locked on Steam.

Nice OT, I horribly misjudged how long it'd take me to replay the original games in time for Chapters release. Will be jumping right into this when my replays are done, hopefully it lives up to its predecessors.
Yeah, I'm glad I took the time to write them, as I kept having the reaction of "wait, I don't remember that," when reading various wikis and the like for the lore and plot of the previous games. If nothing else, it helped refresh my memory a lot.I'm glad I read the recap of the old ones because I can barely remember anything. Mines installing now. Might stream it but I'm usually awful at adventure games so it might be frustrating for people to see me fumble around lol.
So if I had a Humble Store account (I didn't, though I've previously bought bundles from them), the key is supposed to already be in my account? That's not how Broken Age worked on there...
That worked, thanks! Not sure why I didn't get an email alert from Humble though.Your Humble page will be associated with the email you used on Kickstarter/PayPal. Try to use the key resender with your associated backer email. You can also verify with BackerKit.

Game delayed a bit because of some bugs.

Does the PS4 version have a some sort of tentative release date/window yet?
It will probably take a year, give or take a few months. They have said they're going to follow a similar model to The Walking Dead, so expecting a new episode every 2-3 months seems reasonable.Any ETA on when it will be finished? I want to wait until all episodes are out. It's been a long wait so a little bit longer won't hurt...
Same. I planned on doing it, but got distracted by other games. Given how much I've forgotten, I feel like I need to replay them again.Think I'm going to replay TLJ/Dreamfall before diving into this. Stoked to hear more impressions, glad to hear the writing is supposedly good. I'd forgotten how good the writing/voice acting is in the older games.

Bought it today. I hope my PC can handle it, I have a quite weak GPU.

Offering early access to the game was such a poor choice for a backer reward. I'm glad I'll be playing a fixed version.
I haven't run into any of those issues but I haven't played with the default subtitle options. Fewer bugs is always nice though!
So I'm really interested in this game/series, but I've tried to play The Longest Journey on my laptop and it keeps crashing. I should be able to run Dreamfall OK but the first game keeps crapping out on me...
Is it really necessary to play the TLJ to fully enjoy the sequels?
Not sure. The only place that I didn't see it specified was on Humble, where it's also $5 cheaper. No idea if it comes with the extras, so I omitted them from the list.Also, what is the deal the the "Special Edition" that seems to be the only way to purchase the game right now?
When the game is released, will there immediately be a cheaper version that doesn't have a bunch of PDFs and wallpapers?
I've been playing it for about 5 hours now and there are tons of visual bugs everywhere, especially with the lens flare effects.
Performance is atrocious too. I put everything on low and at 720p and it was still chugging along at 20fps in places. It seems to be like that no matter what settings you choose. 1080p and High or 720p and Low. It still hangs at 20fps.
It'll probably be delayed until tomorrow or possibly even later considering how rough it feels.
Story wise though, it's interesting. Not as gripping as the previous two but enough to make me want to carry on.
Yeah, the lens flare issues are pretty annoying, especially since I can see exactly why they're happening. I just want to reach into the code and fix it. It's such a simple problem.
Performance was great until I got to chapter 2. Had to drop quality and resolution to keep going--but only when I'm "outside".
