How has thin been so far? Loved the original but the sequel was bloody terrible.
Dreamfall? i thought it was pretty good, game play wasn't that great that's true but mostly cause no one dared to make real adventure games at that time (mid 2000 was the high time of the dumbing down games for the lowest common denominator trend in game development it was a dark time ) it was seen as a very risky endeavor so they tried to shoe horn some awkward combat sequences and stealth in but that didn't really bother me that much since the story,characters and world was still very charming just like in the first game.
I've been playing this for two hours now and so far it's one of the best games to fall asleep to - nice relaxing music, a lot of talking about dreams and shit, wandering around half-asleep until it completely takes you over. Obviously it's boring as fuck, but I'm not giving up just yet. Maybe something actually starts to happen and it picks up a little bit, so I'm still giving it a chance.
I do love the atmosphere and visuals in Europolis though, reminds me of Remember Me. Other than that - meh...

Yeah, unfortunatelly its a piece of shit as far as games go. The first book was horrible. Not only they didn't follow up on the storyline that went and ended in the previous game ten years ago, they just fucked around with meaningless bullshit for three or so hours. Basically the only gameplay the game has is walking around for very long stretches trying to reach the next person to talk to. You do this over and over.
So i finished the piece of shit first book then start book 2, where you reach the Arcadia city from the previous game, only now its gigantic with no loading screens and again you have to wander around until you reach the people you need to talk to by mistake. Its so god damn boring and the storyline is so utterly uninteresting. I've waited so long for this shit to be announced that its in development and then another bunch of years until it was all done, and now i'm strugling to play the game and its just part two of five. Jesus.
when i start Dreamfall book 5 it starts from the beginning (book 1) probably because i don't have the save game files anymore so if someone would be so kind as to give me their saved game (the ending of book 4 ) that would be great
For the PC/Mac/Linux folks — our backers and existing customers — we’ll be releasing a new and updated version of the game (‘The Final Cut’) to coincide with the console release.
We’re very excited about this opportunity to revisit Chapters one final time. There are several improvements and changes we’ve wanted to make for years — along with requests and suggestions from our players and community — and we finally have the time and resources to address them.
So what’s new? There are changes to character art and animations, music, sound-effects, shaders, lighting — and gameplay. We’ll be talking specifics soon, and we’ll have more on the console enhancements and special features before March 24th.
The first is the long-awaited German language patch. We received the final voice overs for books four and five in November, and we’ve been working to integrate these into a larger patch, which also contains bug fixes and optimisations. This patch is still in QA, but it won’t be long now.
The second is what we’re calling the ‘benefactors patch’. This update contains missing in-game rewards — including the town crier and Benefactor’s Wall in Marcuria — and it’s next on our schedule.
The third patch is the big one — the aforementioned ‘The Final Cut’ — which upgrades the game to match the console versions. This version will also be included in the Kickstarter boxes scheduled to ship close to the release of the console versions along with the remaining physical rewards.

thank god we pc peasants will finally get the console ultimate edition. Fuck sake men, just two games ago it was a celebrated pc only adventure game. And this shit was a kickstarter. Will check the console improved edition to see if they made the game less shit
We've posted a major new update in the beta branch. This long-delayed patch includes full German localisation for the final two episodes, and support for DX11.
We expect the update to make it to the main branch within a few days, but if you want to give it a spin you can do so now by switching to the beta branch. Please report any issues you find!
Patch notes
Version 5.4 includes:
DirectX 11 support. If your video card is compatible, you should see performance improvements
Unity engine upgrade
German voices for Book 4 and 5, and other localisation fixes
Various audio fixes
Fix for pausing game when alt-tabbing out while in fullscreen mode
Fix for rare inventory bug
Dreamfall Chapters: The Final Cut arrives July 21st on Steam, GOG and the Humble Store, for PC, Mac and Linux.
The Final Cut includes all the changes and updates from the console version, including new music and audio, improved character models, shaders and lighting, revised menus and user interface, remastered voice overs, a new Dreamfall recap video and plenty of extra features. This edition also includes the final batch of in-game rewards, along with general engine enhancements and optimisations, and performance upgrades.
The game looks, plays and runs better than ever...and, of course, it's a free update for everyone who pledged and helped make Dreamfall Chapters a reality in the first place!
Updated to Unity 5.4.5 over the previous 5.4.4 version, thought it would make use of 5.5.x actually but eh, it's not a huge deal.
...And now I can (finally. ) play through the game following it's initial release, took a break after wrapping up the first chapter waiting for some additional patches, good thing I have a (long!) backlog that needs to be wrapped up ha ha.
Well it should make the experience a bit more enjoyable with whatever they've been fixing and tweaking since way back when, the above post summarizes the enhancements pretty well though.
