The Chinese Room

Relistening Dear Esther OST right now. Will get and can't wait.

 

[wmlk]

Wait, the composer is the director of this game? That's really cool.

This would be stunning, but I don't think it fits the title limit :/

 

[rafaelr]

Is this coming out in Europe around the same time? Can't find a pre-order for it on the UK psn store.

seems like the eu store(s) have completely dropped the ball on this one...i think in the US store you get a 20% preorder discount with psplus, in eu you don´t even get to preorder the game. disappointing to say the least.

Didn't Galak-Z end up getting a 20% discount even though it launched late in the EU? I'd imagine this game might end up with a similar situation.

 

[mrklaw]

I wouldn't mind with. 20% launch week discount. I'd like it to be <£15 for an impulse buy, otherwise I might wait for initial impressions. I did like Gone Home/VoEC/Dear Esther etc.

 

[Marvel]

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture lOTl no "I" in team, but there is an "I" in pie.

 

[Daffy Duck]

Where is this on the UK PSN? I have searched for it but there is nothing...

 

[Hanmik]

btw... the embargo is up at 13:00 BST / 14:00 CET.

 

[Lightning Count]

No preload for us Europeans, it will probably be made available at midnight.

 

[Menome]

No pre-orders for UK/Europe. Fingers are being crossed we get the 20% discount on release instead.

 

[Lightning Count]

I hope to have discovered it's secrets by this time, so I can do a stream.

Can someone make one of those embedded countdown timers? Too lazy to deal with time zones

 

[nOoblet16]

Rapture is the local pub, that'd explain why the empty streets. Being set in British countryside and all.

Today?

Today?

Yes.

I hope this message is true :

There won’t be a pre-order for the UK, but the same pre-order bonuses for North America (dynamic theme, 20% discount with PS Plus) are being offered for European fans during the first two weeks of the game’s release.

[WITHE1982]

SCEE really are dropping the ball of late. No pre-order for this in the EU region (Ethan Carter managed it just fine). Little or no mention of a game which is being released at midnight.

Also getting an answer from them about pre-ordering or any PS+ discount is like getting blood from a stone.

I'm guessing this will be available to download at midnight and I'm guessing we'll get a 20% PS+ discount which I'm guessing will be applied sometime tomorrow so don't rush to buy at midnight if the discount isn't live yet as I found out to my dismay with Broken Age.

So is the review embargo up in around 5 hours then?

I hope this message is true :

Ha. Good to know thanks. You can always rely on SCEA to keep us Europeans informed.

cool, getting it tomorrow then.

 

[Mpl90]

Yes.

Thanks.

Mh, interested in reading reviews about it.

Is there any reason for this? Seems a totally dumb move.

 

[stryke]

I can't remember where I read it so don't quote me but I recall a dev saying you had to apply for it really early or something along those lines.

 

[xrnzaaas]

There's going to be a 20% discount in the EU store? Cool, can't wait to play it.

 

[timetokill]

Still so salty that the PC release was cancelled

Holy fuck, somehow I missed this news, and I was greatly anticipating this game.
Gonna go cry myself to sleep now.

 

[KaoteK]

Looks beautiful, and very, very British. The village reminds me of where my Nan lives in the Midlands. Very interested in this one, but I'm waiting to hear what the gameplay is like before committing.

[Kenzodielocke]

It's not coming to PC. I think it's a Sony IP.

 

[Symphonia]

Walking simulator to migrate to Scotland confirmed.

I'd never resort to that in real-life, what makes you think I'd do it in a videogame? I'll take the chavs over the Scots any day.

I'm guessing 100K copies = physical edition?

Love the rare times when indie games get physical editions, especially because the box art is usually so great.

 

[Handy Fake]

If you're looking forward to this then before you play you should watch the cartoon film "When the wind blows"

Don't read about it, watch it.

Watched that in school. After The Snowman and Father Christmas, it's not really what you expect from Raymond Briggs.
Grim as you like. Grim as grim can be.

I read the plot summary and it basically sounds like the British equivalent of Grave of the Fireflies. No thanks.

A fine film, that. Caught it once by accident on Film4.
It's.... It's hard to explain but while there are slight parallels it's... I'll just say it's too hard to explain and you should watch it. It's very, very good.

Was thinking the same thing, never again shall I willingly have those feels.
