Doesn't look good?!
I just had a look at the game... it looks outright terrible!!!

I thought the people over the Steam forum were trolling as usual... but this... this is like Uwe Boll made a game!

It was supposed to be released today.



Yes.. at the usual Steam time of ~1000 PST, as are all NA releases they've done lately?

It actually went up for sale last night, however.

Edit: Probably doesn't matter much since it doesn't seem to be finished.

It was the pre-order discount.

No.  It was available for purchase when I got up at ~5AM local time.  The pre-order tag and discount were gone - just the 'purchase' button. The forums already had people complaining about having just bought it, and the game being unfinished.  Steam never releases anything until it's noon here (my time) so it was highly unusual.  So they must've accidentally released it 12 hours early. 

Like I said - doesn't matter.  It'll take awhile to get it fixed, I'm sure.  It just didn't surprise me too much that Steam may have jacked something up again.

 Well if they paid me to play it I might. RPG codex had a write up and video from the release that pretty much resembles a steaming pile. It is a shame I had high hopes for this one.

Kind of like my first marriage. It seemed good in the previews and talking it through, but after the inception totally unworkable.

Much like most marriages, many game releases are marred by bad judgement and numerous signs that things weren't going to go well.  Yet they happened anyway. :P
