Thank you for the explanation. Wish you a nice day!

You could see it like that but it does not mean people are bashing any game...
its a form of democratic right to tell what you think of something, as long as people dont start to swear or curse its okay.
I know steam... i use it for casualgames, but if i have and idea about something i will ventilate it (discuss it )
It is good to see a dev/publisher react, normally they wont reply like many on steam, one dev/publihser of casual games does his best to reply its Alawar games, ik like it when they reply cause this show they do care what there users/buyers think.


thanks, i know what a Ninja is ....
i also read the topic the dev used in his reply.... so why the Edit: Ninja. :P ?
i been moderator in a small community for 12 years, modded some people, kicked some people, so i am aware of rules in forum :D but one should be able to reply, so no more Ninja please. :D
cause then it would look like we are the EU guys, these arent allowing people to have a mind of their own , and force silly laws and rules upon 28 countries, want 1 flag, to fit all, and all the people just to be quiet.
Thats no democracy anymore in Eu, thats why Eu is bursting.

I replied to previous you made 45 minutes ago, you hadn't responded to that part yet.
I thought you might've missed it.
You had already posted the reply to that part before I made my post.
That's why I said ninja. :P

I think one of the reasons that page one of this thread was so negative was that people were disappointed that their "niche" game of choice was not Tuesday's new game, and took their disappointment out on Barony, which was.

But as and [url=https://www.gog.com/forum/general/release_barony_cursed_edition_d0956/post51]rgnk said, it's not Barony's fault that other games haven't been approved by GOG, and on the bright side, having a game like Barony being approved means that other games could also get approved as released!

In fact, Dex have just posted an update to their Kickstarter campaign that after two failed attempts at getting on GOG, they just got approved on their third try! :)

So, even if GOG says no initially, they can and do change their minds.

The game runs perfectly well with all of the graphical options enabled on my older MacBook Air (11.6", Late-2010, 1.4 Ghz Core 2 Duo, 2 GB RAM/64 GB SSD, 256 MB Integrated GeForce 320m, OS X 10.11.4), and on my newer MacBook Air (11.6", Mid-2013, 1.3 Ghz Core i5, 4 GB RAM/128 GB SSD, 1.5 GB Integrated Intel HD 5000 Graphics, OS X 10.11.4). If it'll run on my Late-2010 MacBook Air, it'll run on almost just about anything.

As sheridanr himself has stated, these aren't exactly hard and fast min/recommended specs, but just him being conservative with his estimates. It's reasonably understandable that he'd want to ensure that people playing his game do so with a fair assurance that their computer will allow his game to be played as he feels it was meant to be played.

As for the game itself, I've actually taken quite a shine to it. It's a surprisingly quite atmosphereic game.

If you're referring to gamesfreak64's posts, don't be alarmed: barely-coherent rambling is more or less his default setting. He's mostly friendly and harmless, though, if a little loopy. =)
In general, though, you'll find the GOG forums to be more freewheeling and, ah...democratic than you might be used to (compared to the Steam forums [I've heard], for example). In other words, it's a feature, not a bug. =)
Unless people are throwing slurs around or something, it's usually best to just ignore the grumps and off-topic weirdness (at least in release threads; if you've got a thread for a specific purpose -- like reporting bugs -- in your game's sub-forum, demanding that that stay on-topic would be entirely reasonable). That being said, I don't think anyone else had mentioned anything even remotely political here -- unless you're referring to "pixel politics". But good luck getting people to leave off discussing that kind of thing! =P

wow thanks for the reply ... i am deeply honored....
and you are correct about this setting as you call it: As for political stuff, politicians do have more in common with forum users then people might think, in a way a forum is like a sort of 'parliament' or mini EU... there's a remarkable guy called Guy Verhofstead and he's rambling all the time, i find him quite amusing, but many times he wont let Mr Farage finishe his speech, he always interrupts Mr Farage while Mr Farage usually lets mr Verhotfstead finish.
Anyways imho Mr Farage makes more sense then Verhoffstead does, but then again almost anyone makes more sense then Mr Verhoffstead for that matter.

Price politics of the game in other stores aren't unrelated. So I am interested if a different store did instigate recent price developments?

It's still a way of shooting oneself in the foot by posting such outlandish sys reqs. One would think that the dev would have asked his testers about what systems they've run the game on and then go from there instead of just going with only his own PC.

I drag attention to the price discount. I don't use Steam.

Just for the hell of it, I ran my copy on a system with a fanless 800 MHz processor. It worked perfectly well, still very fluid and responsive, and only used ~25% CPU. The system requirements are overstated.

I like the game. I bought it on impulse, as it looked kind of neat. I have a lot of nostalgia for 90's PC games, so I like the art style (I quite like the retro monospaced font), the controls feel really good, the atmosphere is neat, and it's nicely challenging (my guys die a lot).
