Hi guys,
I'll try to answer some of your questions here:
1. Missing characters
For some reason some printed boxes seem to be missing a character. Highly unfortunate - I test installed some off the shelf here for instance and worked like a charm. As you'll see in other threads, Kallocain is working hard to solve the issues as they are reported.
2. Why Steam? Please note - you may or may not agree with this, I'm not posting this to persuade you either way. But since the Steam installer is not going to go away - you might be interested in knowing our thinking process:
- We don't micro manage everything our devs teams do. Taleworlds saw many advantages with the Steam installer and we agreed with them so the decision was made.
Other advantages we saw:
- It reduces lead times (print lead times are 6-8 weeks)
- Eliminates the need for physical discs
- Allows for flexibility in patching and automatic updates
- Reduces certain (potential) technical issues
- Testing of patches before going public
3. Could we have made it clearer that the Steam installer is included? Absolutely, currently the box has an information section about it but we'll look into how we can make it even clearer moving forward.
Kind regards
Susana Meza
