I'm highly disappointed none of you malaccas posted this musical masterpiece. [/sarcasm]

Now there is a term I've not heard in a long time.  A long time.  I believe the correct plural form of that word is malakia however. 

Don't be afraid, don't be dismayed

I almost bought this just now, but £25 is a bit steep for early access in my opinion....and then I spotted that they're asking for SEVENTEEN QUID for the "supporter pack" to "show your support for the development of Songs of Conquest" - isn't that what people buying the base game in early access are doing?

It's rubbing me up the wrong way to be honest.

Seventeen on top of 25?

Yeah, if you want to "show your support", as if buying an alpha for £25 wasn't enough.

Meh.  The guys from Lavapotion don't come off as the grasping/greedy types.  I'm willing to bet the "Supporter Pack/Supporter Bundle" was mainly offered at the request of a handful of superfans/original backers.  Diehards are often willing to throw more money at a project than they need to, especially when it's for a project like this one.  ;) 


Still very tempted to get this.  I think the only reason I've managed to hold off in this particular moment is because I know I won't really have time to play it before I leave on Thursday.

Damn you people. I had written it off because of its looks…I am shallow. But now with everyone frothing at the mouth - it’s got me thinking again.

How ‘early access’ is it? And mind you I still haven’t fired up Warhammer III which was not officially early access at release - but actually really was.

To be honest, I don't find the graphics style very appealing.

What is the current state of the Early Access version?
“All major gameplay features are implemented. Two campaigns are finished and four factions are fully playable. Online and local multiplayer is working as intended. The level editor needs more polish, but is fully functional. There might be UI-elements, translations and overall user experience details that needs improvements.”

Looking forward to your impressions, Gus!

More tempted than I was last week. However just bought V Rising (also early access), and will be getting Old World on Thursday as well as the Rise of the Swiss DLC for Field of Glory 2.

So...my wallet is weeping.

My finger is hovering over the "purchase" button for V Rising and I'm definitely buying Old World, so we are in the same boat. And....yeah, I'm pulling the trigger on V. Looks like fun.

Somewhere, somehow, I woke up in the wrong timeline. I'm pretty sure this isn't even my dimension.

Everything I do is "with intent"   8)

And I did pick up V Rising even though it looks like it needs to cook a bit longer.
