God damn that looks awesome. I want it bad! Wonder if they'll still take beta testers at this late stage of development - I do have professional experience going for me.

Nah I dont think so, considering that the game will be released in 1 max. 2 weeks.

We're excited to announce that Hinterland is about to go gold, and we expect it to be available through Steam (for $19.99) early next week!

I can't say I'm too happy about the steam part, but I'll be giving Hinterland a try anyway. It sounds really Majesty-like.

IT'S TIME TO LOOT, LEVEL AND BUILD. Hinterland is now available for purchase via Steam!

And yes, I'm aware that Majesty 2 is being worked on as well ;)

I played it, it's not bad but I get the same sorta letdown as with Spore from it, it seemed like there'd be much more. Perhaps my fault for overestimating it. Still fun, I will keep playing.

Goodness can't ANY highly original/non-mass-produced game come out that IS amazing?

LittlebigPlant is one of those games that says "Hey this is amazing!" and then you play and it says "Hey YOU suck!" so I don't think I will be buying that.

What does that leave me? Nothing... WAAAAAAAA!!!

This needs to be said... this game is terrible. The fact that it was compared to Dwarf Fortress sickens me almost as much as the fact that I paid 20 dollars for it. In honor of how bad this game is, I have donated another $20 to DF. Thanks for making an actually immersive game, Tarn.

I'm going to get the 'free full demo' as soon as it gets released out there.

As you journey to the center of the world, feel free to read the death announcements of those dwarves that suffer your neglect.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the cosmos. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips, I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my veins. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.

I'm not trying it without a demo-- my integrated card here is so bad that I won't risk it. Is it that disappointing though? I had high hopes.

I'm not too disappointed with Hinterland myself. It's pretty much what I expected it to be and what they advertised it as. Some aspects of the game are perhaps a little simpler than I had thought and it certainly has a couple of rough edges here and there (and the pacing seems a bit off) but nothing that couldn't be fixed with a patch or two. The dev team also seems uncommonly eager to take player requests and suggestions into consideration so there definitely is hope even for those who were disappointed with it.

Nonetheless I find it worth the 17€ I spent on it.

I'll try the "full demo" as well. I can't say I followed the project, so my expectations are fairly low, but I am genuinely hard to please. :P

I doubt that there will be a "full demo" actually.  ;D
