What physical material did you get (Emerald, figures, …)?

What date of daily deal?

I recieved the mini's only, and I plan on keeping those. The date kickstarter shows me pledging on is December 31st. It should include all daily deals from the Gilded Mace or the Sihedron Shield onward.

Hello,

I thought I'd have tons of time to play this game, but that has not occurred.

I contributed to the kickstarter when it was active and have the following extras:

Reward Quantity
New Player Pack 2
Destinys Twin 1
Daily Deals 1
Early Enrollment 1
Memorial of Honor 1
Alliance Pack 1
Adventurer Reward Tier 1
Class Pack 1
Head Start 1
Shield Mate 1
1 Month game time 7
Character Name Reservation 1
Twice-Marked of Pharasma 2

In all I contributed $250 to the kickstarter. I'd like to get $200 for the account (two accounts if you include the invite you'll get to use.) It includes 7 months game time (I don't remember if that's for the 7 main account or 4 months for the main and 3 for the invite account). I pledged after the kickstarter had been going for maybe two weeks, so you'll get a lot of the daily deals, but not all of them (kickstarter says I pledged on December 31st).

If you have any questions, let me know.

Thanks,

I love Linux people. They see themselves and the five friends they talk to, and they get this idea that they are a major part of the computer gaming population.

JAVA? For crying out loud, Java is slow as molasses on running something text based like PCGen, and you want to run a CGI game on it?! What universe are you operating from that Java looks like a real vehicle to you?

Given that every modern Mac can run Windows without emulation, there's not that incentive to develop an OS X client for simultaneous release unless you've got the big research bucks that Blizzard commands. I could see it as something coming down the road. Star Trek Online just announced an OS X Beta. And you might be able to get your Linux and Mac served via Wine or CrossOver.

1. Mac's run windows without emulation? Did the virtual machines start giving access to graphics cards and no one told me? I think you might want to reassess playing games from windows binaries on a mac running windows in a virtual machine, but its been 18 months since I did so maybe it all changed. (PS, virtual machine's are emulators. WINE is not, it literally runs the exe on the actual hardware without emulating a windows system. see Is Wine an Emulator)

2. Wine runs on both Mac and Linux, and Steam now has a fully functional linux version with games out. And they have stated they will use Wine for this. Making your game compatible with Wine makes more sense now than it ever did. I'd love a native port of PFO for Linux, as that is the only OS I use, but one designed from the beginning to work with Wine will suffice.

3. The planned Steam console running Linux, and the thousands of android games will continue to make us a larger and larger part of the computer gaming population.

4. I agree, a full game in Java would be crazy.
