Nevernind, guess I read it too fast. I thought he was saying that paying for videogames is comparable to paying your taxes.

Cool. What I would do if I were you is advertise to the world that you're going to steal a game. Have you tried the internet for that?

These games do deserve more attention from the buyers rather than the pirates.. personally I don't pirate games anymore, but one cannot tell others what they should and should not do.
shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.

Hopefully a Crack Only will popup since that 3DM download will take a while and I already got the unpacked steam files.

Well a guy somehow connected with the game posted this on AdventureGamers...
Quote: | Hello,
few precisions,
Only Jack the Ripper was on Xbox, the Awakened or Arsene Lupin never knew a console version. They are going to be on Ipad, for the players that are interested. SH1 was ported on DS in 2009 and Silver Earring on Wii in 2011, but it’s not relevant to the dicussion.
The absence of The Awakened or Arsene Lupin on console has nothing to do with the difficulty of the games but with the console BUSINESS back in 2005-2008. The criteria to have a game on console at this time are not really connected to the… deductions that one can read on this thread. It will be too long to explain, but shortly let’s say that adventure games were not welcomed at this time.
Difficulty and consoles are not directly connected, it’s a publisher choice, when you pay 10 USD to manufacture an XBOX or PS3 disc, you’d better sell it, if you manufacture 300000, a failure leads to bankrupt, this decrease the level of risk you take and the level of difficulty publisher among others. When you release a game on XBLA and PSN it cost nothing, so difficulty risk is just on the publishing/production side.
@diego, I’m impressed you are creating graphics out of your own opinions, you do that with everything? the clothes you wear last month? the food you eat last week? the quality of your neighbors in the last 10 years?
The story of the Silver Earring is an investigation, whodunnit style, but it’s the only one we made, and on purpose, we never had the intention to create copy/paste in a series, unlike MANY adventure game series. Yes, doing so would have created a captive audience and people waiting for the next installment, but it’s boring for us and illogical in term of constant progress that computer entertainment allows. Every game we create is different in theme and atmosphere, for 12 years we’ve worked with Sherlock Holmes and applied this rule, Sherlock Holmes is universal enough to appear in many different settings, and this is why we can continue to work with him. Therefore our games are not necessarily for the same players every time, you would need to be at least open minded and be ready for something new, not being disappointed in advance because the new game doesn’t correspond to your needs in Nostalgia.
I want to make a summary of our Sherlock Holmes games so readers can follow the logic here:
The mummy was a simple puzzle game, short with a very simple story, but we learned how to make game doing it.
the Silver Earring is a whodunnit adventure, with the quizzes that were so heavily criticized in North America for their complexity, including on this website
The Awakened is an ADVENTURE taking Sherlock Holmes abroad and facing Supernatural element, introducing 3D for the series
Versus Arsene Lupin is a puzzle game of very high complexity mixing poems, 3D environment and tons of tiny details
Jack The Ripper is a fictionnal investigation, by the way since 2009 the rate of Jacob Levy being the Ripper went high in the charts of the Ripperologists, National Geographic even invited some criminalists with nice haircuts, making a show taking 80% of the arguments developed in the game to prove that the Ripper was Jacob Levy, how he disappear and why he wasn’t caught… How funny a video game influence criminalists with 30 years of experience (with watered down puzzles of course).
The Testament of Sherlock Holmes is an investigation about Sherlock Holmes himself, it’s more beautiful (and hopefully) and it’s also more accessible, with less blocks and puzzles that cannot be passed (you can skip them if you want to after 5 minutes). Is it simpler to play? I don’t think the players would agree on this, at least it’s not what they write on French Forums. but Yes, I will never do a game as hard as Arsene Lupin again.
Why? Because people interested in the game didn’t play myst in bulgarian version before, because they expect something else than you do, not to be stuck in their progression of the game or the story because of some puzzles. You call it watered down, so be it…
The most difficult of our games is of course Arsene Lupin (and not Silver Earring…), 80% of the journalist couldn’t beat the first quizz and the game was bashed by the critics because of the difficulty of the puzzles. The game getting low marks, people got suspicious about it, and you who are asking for difficulty are not better, you want to wait for the opinion of the others, meaning that if the game is not well ranked you won’t play it, even if it’s because of the difficulty you are asking for.
The french players are playing the Testament for a week and they are fighting their way through the game, it’s cool to see Xbox and PS3 players that only played LA noire engaging their brain in the puzzles of the Testament and liking it.
However old can be Sherlock Holmes, our games are not for nostalgic adventure players that want to find the flavor on the 90’s and the 320*240 8 bits color windows. The Testament of Sherlock Holmes was created in order to bring adventure games widely to a public that doesn’t know them necessarily yet and who is asking for more variety on their possible choices, whether they are on console or PC. |
There was some argument about being it dumbed down (which i believe it will be)...

I've read it's more like a blend of traditional point and click and LA Noire-ish gameplay. A "more accessible" experience but apparently not bad at all.
edit: the post above would confirm that.

Yeah the same thing is in the txt that comes with the torrent. Also from another source the unpacked files are 9.3 GB so it should be different in some way.

So, does the 3DM release really contain a crack or is it all baloney?
