Have any IGG backers seen their custom perks in-game?
I'm currently watching Baxander's YT LP. Looks like he's having fun, and it's entertaining to watch. I haven't seen any cut scenes yet. I vaguelly remember Cleve stating that there were 37? cut scenes.

Strap Yourselves In Codex+ Now Streaming!
I just saw this is mostly positive now on Steam with very favourable reviews on the front page.
That changed fast, congrats Cleve!

That was one of my favorite parts of the Wizardry games.

Finding hidden jokes like that.


I just hope I get my steam key before my semester starts in 2 weeks. I really want to play this game before I have to spend all day studying.

My autohotkey script with proper movement keys for those interested. Use F12 to enable/disable the script when you need to type text.

Code:
#IfWinActive ahk_exe Grimoire.exe
F12::Suspend, Toggle ;Disable/Enable Script
r::F2 ;Rest
m::F3 ;Automap
j::F4 ;Journal
F5::F6 ;Quick Save
F6::F5 ;Game Menu
a::z ;Strafe Left
d::x ;Strafe Right
q::left ;Turn Left
e::right ;Turn Right

and the batch I use to launch the game with a resolution that looks nice, because the ingame scaler at 1080p is crap. You'll need NirCmd

Code:
start nircmd.exe setdisplay 1280 768 32
start steam://rungameid/650670

Having a blast on my Let's Play, and I mean a BLAST!! Sometimes in life we are wrong about things, it happens.
I will take my extra helping of crow.

When your Grimoire LPs inevitably turn you into a big time Youtube celebrity, just remember the little guys who were there at the beginning, making Baxander memes

So you shit talked a game and its developer nonstop, made insane hate filled videos where you get quite clearly emotional and your voice breaks. But now you've done a 180? Really makes you think.

Did you at least get a legitimate copy of the game?

Before Grimoire's release the shit talking towards Cleve was justified. I'd say that the only big faux pas by Baxander was his video where he played the superdemo for eight or so minutes looking for things to make fun of. It takes a big man to admit his mistake, good for him.

This user review on metacritic made me lol. Clearly trollish yet they gave Cleve a 10.

"As a furry and a redditor of trans-colour, there aren't many games that represent me. in Grimoire I can be whatever I want I can be a Naga or a Drow the possibilities are endless!
I am currently playing the game as we speak sure there might be a micro issue or two but they are patched in mere minutes. The game is literally perfect!"

Not sure exactly what this means, but seems to imply the worst. Think fucking carefully before going down this road Cleve, breaking savegames again will be a major issue, worse than telling <2.0.7 people to start again imo (as many of them seem to have already).

They should have backed up their saves, and if not they can still play the older version. The game can run in its own folder for fucks sake, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to simply copy/paste the folder somewhere on your PC and play through that or simply overwrite your Steam copy of the game with an older backed up version (Steam can't tell the difference).

I've been using a copy of .5 and it runs really well (so far). I'll update whenever I know it won't break my game for sure.

I find it somewhat amusing that Cleve isn't even acknowledging the people who believed in him the most.

Why not simply not remove it from an inventory in the mean time? It's 80mb.
