Anyone getting this? its out today.
I had it on my wish list, but it looks a little too story-oriented and dialogue heavy for me.

I loaded it last night. Reviews so far are generally decent. I need to get through my backlogue before I fire it up in earnest...including Kingdom Come and Thrones of Britannia.
Trying to keep new purchases low for a while, but this has definitely been on my radar... will be watching for impressions.

I'm glad you do!
On my radar. I like a story, but not hugely into vampire stuff.
It's made by the people responsible for Life is Strange. A game I never thought I'd get into but was one of the best story-based games I ever played.
Negative reviews for Vampyr seem to be of the 'not a combat game' flavour.
I got it, but have yet to find enough time to truly play it.
I'm also still waiting for GreenManGaming to deliver the Pre-Order DLC key to me (the idiots forgot to send those out, and have been asleep for 2 days now).

I'm not one for those story driven games but I finished "Life is Strange"...a very satisfying gaming experience, really enjoyed it. I'll have to take a look at Vampyr.
I got my preorder key yesterday along with the pre order bonus from Green Man.
Ugh... I really hate those "Checkpoint-only" save systems.
Now I made a slight mistake and can't correct it :(
(Didn't realize saying something to a patient at the hospital will permanently block me from gaining a clue/hint that I need)
^I don't like them either and the save system is one of the complaints I've read about...it's part of a game world that bills itself as open but isn't really.

Well, I've been waiting for over 2 days since I opened a support ticket, and still nothing.
Israeli release delay?
I was vaguely interested until I read about uninspiring characters, a stamina-based combat system preventing fluid movements and a lack of meaningful game changing (moral) choices that are the bane of so many potentially interesting games these days.
It seems the main variety comes from picking which bland NPC to kill in each area. The people at GameRevolution didn't kill anyone that wasn't actively hostile and still the game kept insisting they would turn to the dark side.

Nah, just GMG guys being a bunch of nitwits.
Also, ComradeP?! Where have you been?
So did you get your code yet?
Lurking in the shadows more or less, there are periods where there's not that much for me to comment on depending on what kind of games are released.
WTF??

WTF??
I know.
They better come up with some proper compensation for this soon, for I am planning to demand a refund and buy the game again when it goes on sale.
:/
They refused to refund.
Guess it's time to consider a PayPal Dispute.
What? Can they confirm that they sent you the code?

Nope, they even admitted they didn't send the code.
Also, I'm not sure if it's legal what they are doing according to UK/EU laws (the company is based in England).
Did they give a reason why they didn't send the code?
So, is it any good?

Nothing but the same BS over and over "We are looking into it. Thank you for your patience".
EDIT: I've taken it to PayPal, hopefully they will help resolve this issue.
I just can't believe GMG, they kept making mistakes, and instead of having their higher ups do a proper damage control of the issue, they just kept blundering it into a greater mess.
EDIT 2: What a surprise. An hour after opening the PayPal dispute they mail me a key they say is for the DLC. ::)
...but not the main Vampyr game?
