Well March 31st is still March...  \m/

I am guessing it should be in a pretty good / highly playable state.

The price seems reasonable.

It's not even a release? Still early access and at no less than 50 euro's.
Don't get me wrong; this is an instant buy for me, but the 'normal' price while calling it early access is a little odd, don't you feel?

You are right of course...:) But what is a "release" anyway. I've been playing "7 Days to Die" for five years, and it still is "Alpha". But in reality, the game has been highly playable for years. Still, to your point, when I bought 7 Days to Die in 2015, I think I paid $5 and haven't spent another dime on it since.

As a side note. As I recall it, you might say Taleworlds was on the first cusp of the "early access" trend.

When we, the gaming public were raking Stardock over the coals for an incomplete release of "Fallen Enchantress", Taleworlds released Mount & Blade on a paid Beta basis. Basically "early access" before it was a thing. I bought it then, and the game was 95% complete and highly playable.

I don't have any problem waiting for one of you nerds to buy it and try it, and then post your impressions before I jump in.   ^-^

This is good news indeed.

Guess I'll be waiting for a long time, then.  :(  I refuse to fork over that much dosh for a game anymore, especially one that's still in Early Access.

Except by the time it releases on March 31st, it will be April 1st for quite a lot of people :P

Damn Tpek. You just gave away my April Fool's Day for this year.  ;D  Oh well, there's always the one about Melania Trump posing nude I can use.

UPDATE!

They moved it to March 30th for release!  :D

10% discount of reg price too, and possible additional 10% for those that own any of the M&B games too!

A War of a Madman's Making - a text-based war planning and political survival RPG

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.
- Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian


If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.
