It does look like the name was going through, though as far as I'm aware nothing else. Goes both ways, I believe. I've got no idea how or if that can be squelched. For what it's worth, I can delete any information in regards to that I end up with.

If anyone's still got space for me in a 4-pack, I'm interested.

I caved in and bought it. Especially the tought that I'll be able to play a beta soon-ish makes me happy.

[Sirus]

I sent the money to Frump for the 4-pack. Hopefully as soon as it goes through we can all get our codes

I'll likely only get it once it hits Steam. Even not taking the fact that I'll likely pay less that way into account, Steam is the only thing I can actually buy things through at the moment.

How would you pay less that way? $11.25 if you split up a 4 pack, and Tiy said it would be more once it was released.

Probably waiting for a sale. After a year or two it will probably drop to $10 or so.

Russian. Some things are just plain cheatingly cheaper in Rubles on Steam. For example, Far Cry 3 is $50. If I were to buy it directly for USD, it'd translate to... well, about 1550 RUR. On Steam, I can buy it for 799 RUR. It's not the same for all things, some retain their prices, but it works for quite a lot of titles. KSP for $23, or 715 RUR? Listed for 450. Just recently bought Stardrive for 430.

So, I think it can still work out in the end. Not to mention all the conversion fees I'll save on. ^_^

I actually think this game will be fairly quick to discount. With all of the hype and media(a huge blitz is planned for the 4 weeks preceding launch) I believe they will reach 70% audience saturation within 60 days. That remaining 20%+/- will need to be lured in with sales. 3-10% are likely to not buy and/or pirate. These ratios are currently floating around the industry and I applied them to this situation but obviously the industry is volatile and I can't make certain predictions.

I would speculate you will see a $9.99usd sale by Christmas if release is Sept-Oct. But who really knows? I love the Chucklefish crew but business development is clearly not their strong point.

Does this game have any  game footage that isn't test demoey so I can get a taste of the gameplay?

No because there is a chance you might not like it, tell others, and thus they might not buy it.
They could give you a demo now, but what point would it serve?

That is... much more pessimistic then an interpretation I would give.

Though that is why I am not buying it until I see gameplay. The biggest issue with Terraria, the only one, was just how the character moved.

Listening to the soundtrack you get for pre-ordering.

First impressions:
I'd pay money for the soundtrack alone. It's pretty damn amazing, makes perfect background noise, and many of the songs are well over 7 minutes. Hell, the first track is 20 minutes long. 529 MB of music is a lot.

What, the jumping up one tile slopes? I remember seeing that fixed.

No just moving in general in Terraria.
