Finally!Update 23 – Physical Edition, revealed!
Today, I’m proud to reveal the physical edition of the CRPG Book, to be published by Bitmap Books, creators of the most beautiful and polished books on video games!
This edition will be hardcover, fully proof-read, feature new reviews, several updates and the amazing cover artwork you see above, done by artist Jan Pospíšil.
This is still a non-profit work, so all these updates will be later freely available for download, and ALL the money I would make from this will instead be donated to Vocação, an award-winning NGO in Brazil that helps kids and teenagers from poor communities to advance their education and earn a job, giving them the tools to improve their lives and of the people around them.
The pre-orders will begin on January 14, with a very special limited edition also available! You can sign up here to be informed.
Cheers, and thanks to everyone who helped me take this project so far!
I still can't reveal everything, we are still preparing a deluxe edition with poster and a few other goodies that are still pending, but the book was fully proof-read, a bunch of screenshots were replaced for much better ones (for exemple, I recently replayed Witcher 2 in 4k) and updated the reviews with new information (like The Bard's Tale Trilogy remaster).So, is the embargo lifted felipepepe? Care to elaborate on the new reviews and updates?
Would have been even better with a rideable giant turtle.The coverart is fantastic
Just to clear something up I read elsewhere: The book will open up for pre-orders two months from now, but the book itself will not be available and/or shipped until November 2019... a whole year from now? Can anyone confirm/deny this?
No, the book will be shipped 1-2 months after the pre-order starts, depending on some final details (like the limited edition bonuses). The only "November" in the press release is the current date, November 2018.Just to clear something up I read elsewhere: The book will open up for pre-orders two months from now, but the book itself will not be available and/or shipped until November 2019... a whole year from now?

Actually, both editions are limited. My contract is that I can distribute the updated free ebook once they sell out - or after a certain amount of time has passed.It comes in a standard or collector's edition, the latter being limited to 1000 units.
Had a feeling you'd say that. Its why I deliberately informed the Codex AFTER my copy had been secured.Actually, both editions are limited.

I can't reveal all the details while the contract is active, but my cut will be around 13,000-20,000 dollars.Just curious though, how much money did you make from the contract, and how much does the publisher get to keep from the proceeds?
