In which the story truly begins.

<span class="bold">Dreamfall Chapters - Book 2: Rebels</span>, the second of five Dreamfall chapters, is available now, DRM-free on GOG.com!

The second book of <span class="bold">Dreamfall Chapters</span> is finally released! If you were one of the lucky ones who picked up the game during our Insomnia promo, how's that for a cherry on top?
Dreamfall is a story of magic vs. science, dreams and reality, choices and consequences. The tale of a world where broken heroes shape history - it's a journey through the murky streets of a dystopian future, the magical landscapes of a fantasy world, and a mysterious land of dreams that lies vaguely in between. The sequel to award-winning Dreamfall: The Longest Journey (and long awaited conclusion to The Longest Journey saga) finally continues in Book 2: Rebels. This, however, is still just the beginning... <span class="bold">Dreamfall Chapters</span> is a five part series - getting the game now will grant you access to all future episodes as soon as they become available.

The Special Edition comes packed with some amazing bonus content, such as an digital art-book, a FLAC soundtrack, or short stories. If you're not ready to commit just yet, you can pick up the upgrade later on.

Continue the story of <span class="bold">Dreamfall Chapters</span> with Book 2: Rebels, available now DRM-free on GOG.com

Thought it was 3 chapters not 5.
Anyway, will wait until the game is complete before buying and playing.

I bought Dreamfall Chapters Season Pass-Special Edition because I thought "Season Pass" meant all future chapters were included at no additional cost. Now I see that this chapter 1 season pass is an additional purchase that apparently includes all future chapters. What was the deal with the first season pass, if it didn't actually include anything else?

Votes so far are average..
By the way, I still haven't redeemed my Dreamfall 1 purchase lol.

does the new chapter optimizes game, if not they need to focus on that cause it takes a lot of skills to mess up a unity engine game and currently this one is the most messed up. How the hell were they planning to run this on wiiu.

DREAMFALL CHAPTERS SEASON PASS

is the standard version of the game and includes all chapters.

DREAMFALL CHAPTERS SEASON PASS - SPECIAL EDITION UPGRADE

upgrades the standard edition to the special edition.

DREAMFALL CHAPTERS SEASON PASS - SPECIAL EDITION

includes all chapters and the special edition content.

HOWEVER, this game isn't bundled properly in the catalog.

If you buy the special edition, the standard edition and the upgrade remain listed as unowned (and available for purchase despite already having access to all content).

If you buy the standard edition and the upgrade, the special edition remains listed as unowned (and available for purchase despite already having access to all content).

In other words, the special edition is NOT properly configured as a bundle of the standard edition and upgrade but instead as a separate product.

There is a similar problem with games that ARE configured properly as bundles (in those cases, buying the bundle product DOES mark the individual components as owned, but buying all of the individual components does NOT mark the bundle as owned; see Omerta for example).

tl;dr: GOG handles bundles poorly. This has been a known issue for a long time, but GOG hasn't fixed it.

Oh?

really :(

Book 1 was awesome even though it was lite on puzzles.

Five chapters? Crikey.

I hope we don't have to wait too long.

Never mind. Nothing to see here! =P

I haven't had nearly as bad perfromance issues with Book 2 that I had with book 1, which was at times almost unplayable. There's some minor slowdowns here and there, but overall the game is running very well. Though definetly some more optimization wouldn't hurt

No no, I mean Dreamfall 1, not Dreamfall 2 Book 1.
I'm still not sure if I want to own it or trade it.

I should have it from backing the kickstarter, I presume, but I'll play it when all chapters are out.

Dreamfall 1 was "lite on puzzles" too. Not much of a game really, and definitely a huge disappointment to me. The series stops for me at The Longest Journey, which at least was a proper and satisfying game.
Lucky for me though, I bought the retail edition and it cost me less than $3 in fact. So not much of a loss and a lot of money saved on the Chapters. Someone wake me up when they start to make games again and not just cut-scene players.

I have good memories about TLJ 1 : )

Dalthnock: Does the second episode contain Rhinoceroses in it, or will we have to wait for the third?
I guess it was a bit too short-term to add your rhinoceros into the second chapter. But I'm already looking forward to see it in the next one^^

Well, I guess.

I can understand that, I'm a reasonable man, after all.

I've been waiting for so long, I can wait a while longer. And I prefer that they take their time & do it properly, rather than hurry out out the door just to make a quick buck. I can tell you, there'll be rioting the world over if that rhino is badly rendered or improperly animated. It will put the Mass Effect 3 fiasco to shame.

I already went on a safari to hunt a black rhinoceros & have its head all ready to be mailed to the developers, if they fail this critical task.
