classic-gamer: "Additionally, owners of the original Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms will no doubt remember that they were promised ‘Book 2’ free of charge. Kalypso Media and Games Farm are happy to confirm that they will uphold their promise to reward these long-time fans – with all owners of the Steam and GOG versions of Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms eligible to receive Shadows: Awakening as an update to their existing game, completely free of charge." This is really nice. I bought this game 2 years ago and in the last time I thought that we'll never see Book 2 for free. I'm glad that I didn't play the game until now because of possible savegame incompatibility with Book 2. So I will play it next year.
This is super good news. Was just checking this forum because I hadn't been in here in a while. I am excited!

Pajama: It's well worth a play through now as I think Book 2 is going to make quite a few changes. I really enjoyed the game, in fact I've now played through it twice and really had a blast both times :)
I got about a third through the first one, maybe slightly more, and the difficulty started getting super spikey. Either really hard, or really easy, no in between. I think I'm going to wait for the re-release to play through it again, this time completing it :D
