my impressions + warning

Postby Dookie » Thu Oct 29, 2009 1:24 pm

Hi Runic Games Team, I bought the game this morning after quite some time of waiting after I read an interview about the game in a local Game magasine.

I must say I haven't felt this way playing a single player game since the day I've installed Diablo 2, the game is great and I've already suggested it to my friends.

However after quite a short time I had a response from one of my friends that he somehow got the game without being charged for the activation codes.
I wouldn't want to say the way how to get the game for free here so if you want to know private mail me (thats for admins :D), but don't think you can do anything about it anyways :/. You definetly deserve every buck you charge for the game and frankly 20$ isn't that much.

With that being said, good luck with the whole MMO idea

Lubos, Czech republic.

Piracy is unfortunately part of the landscape for games...we're aware of it, but like you said there's only so much that can be done.
We're certainly hopeful that our price point and interaction with the community encourages people to support Runic, but to each his own.

You can, however, give your friend a really disappointed look next time you see him/her :)

I too was saddened to see TL was being pirated on day one, I gave my 2 cents by saying if you like the game you should buy it but pirates usually don't care (duh).

I understand the economy is terrible, but if you can't afford to spend 20 bucks on a well worth it game to also help support the team, maybe you shouldn't be gaming as much and fix up your financial situation first.

Looks like you beat me to this one Jbeck.

If it makes the Dev's feel any better. I only heard about TL last week, I pre-ordered it on steam the following day (after a little investigation). 2 days later my wife buys it, and today my best mate has bought it, with 2 other mates checking it out. Thats 3 definite and possibley another 2 units sold to combat those darn pirates yargh!

Kudo to the design team too, the teamfortress2/incredibles style of characters is great. I can only look forward to the customisation options of the MMO :)

That pretty much hits hits the head on the artstyle right there. :P

I have recommened TL to many of my friends and they all seem very intrested in the product, and for $20 the game is excellent value and im sure anyone with their head screwed on will support Runic and purchase the game, $20 is not a unreasonable price for a game with such replayability, Just wish the pirates understood that. :(

That's absolutely hilarious.

The bots get crazier every month.

Yes now the rains weep o'er his hall,
