Azrael360: The Blackwell Bundle has now an "Universal Patch". I wonder what's new?

Also, why the [1] red notification doesn't go away, even though I already clicked over that game in my shelf and downloaded the patch...?
(It says in My Games: "1 game updated", but in my shelf says: "New & Updated: 0")

Thanks! :)

(By the way, 2 hours later that notification finally disappeared... ^_^)

I know, mine stayed on for a long-ish time as well, I think the extra traffic from the promo has something to do with it.

JudasIscariot: The Whispered World has received a manual :)

Leroux: Ah. I was hoping it would finally get the German DRM-free version already included in the Humble Weekly. Oh well. Thanks for keeping us up to date about the nature of updates though! :)
This was my first thought, as I saw the updated flag... Ok, we will wait for the DRM free german installers for Whispered World and Chains of Satinav and the missing Mac version of Chains of Satinav (it is a Steamplay title)...

JudasIscariot: Warten Sie bitte :P

(not sure on what terms we are hence the polite version :) )
Actually I simplified it a bit; German is kind of complicated in that regard. The less formal version isn't reserved for friends only, but could also be used for children or peers in an informal environment - or even to talk down to someone, patronize or insult them. ;) So it's always safe to go with the polite version, but on the Internet and also with a service like GOG who tries to be close to its customer base, I guess the less formal ('friend') version would be more common. Especially if you talk to spoilt little brats like me. ;)

Well, I don't know German or yall's customs as far as conversation goes so I went with what seemed to be the safer option :)

Perhaps you could get a better feeling for it by e.g. taking a look at the German version of The Whispered World and Chains of Satinav. *wink, wink*

Okay, I won't bug you any further. I just hope you're not building up my hope only to let me down. ;)

Some good and some bad news:
The Dark Eye - Chains of Satinav will not be available anytime soon on GOG in the German language version. However, the German version of The Whispered World is scheduled to be released very soon on GOG. I cannot state you a definite date at the moment, though.

That's the reply by Daedalic Support (D. Marx) I got today regarding my Supportanfrage from Nov. 10.

Well, that's better than nothing - and also better than the other way around; from what I've seen the German voiceovers of TWW are preferable to the English ones, but for Chains of Satinav, even though one would expect the original version to feel more natural than the translation, I actually prefer the quality of the English voiceovers to the German ones. So if the German publisher still acts up after the German version was in the Humble Weekly, I think I'll just ignore the German version and pretend the English one is the best. :P

Also, "not anytime soon" sounds different than "never". ;)

Anyway, thanks for telling me!

NP :-)

OT - I have to wonder what exactly went down with the Humble Weekly; first there were no DRM-free installers, then they got added but no German language for all games, then German got added. With all the stories going around, I'm not completely convinced it's just the German publisher acting up here.

Well, the publisher might have agreed to distributing the German version DRM-free during a short time window, just like some publishers agreed to have their games given away for free or discounted at 80% today during the Fall promo here, but only within strict limits. Making it available all the time would be different (even though I don't agree that it would be a bad choice). But the thing with trying to make the Humble Weekly Steam-only at first, yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if that was Daedalic's own decision.

I may be seeing this the wrong way, but wouldn't selling retail or digital regional pricing preferable also to Daedalic? They have been exploiting the German market and the adventure fans for years, haven't they?
