So far so good.
It reminds me of Syndicate and Deus Ex. I like the setting and how the game work. The story seems good too.
What i don't like is the save system. Not sure why there is a auto save that only saves at certain points. That makes it really hard to play for a short time, since you need to finish whatever is going on storywise.

Overall i like it though.
Yepp, this is definitly no game for a quick game session. I enjoyed it too. But you have to have time for playing, because of this save Feature.

Gladly they´re installing a normal save Option for the Berlin release.
Indeed, the absence of a save option is an unnecessary annoyance.

I just finished the "Dead Man switch". Enjoyable. Looks and feel goods. A well conceived story. Still, it's far too short as it is. So it's a bit frustrating as the game engine clearly has potential. . I will try to get some additional content from Nexus just to check how good these are
Can anyone tell me how long the game is? I've read that it is 'short', but I know that some people think that 30 hours makes for a 'short' rpg.

Also, does anyone know if the editor works with Mac, or is it just windows?

Thanks!

I think it was about 15 hours or so, maybe 10 if you're a fast player.
It actually didn't feel too short to me, since there's no usual rig drivel of running about delivering messages or random encounters, all content.
It´s not so short, as you maybe suppose.

I was a little bit surprised about the lenght, because I did read this posts of being short too, before I started playing it.
I didn´t count the hours, but it should have taken somewhat between 15-20 hours, finishing my game.
I think what i like about it is the old school atmosphere. graphics are great imo. and score too.
So far, great experience.

btw. that berlin thing is an addon i assume. haven't checked yet but can it be download from their website?

Anyway, great game.

Either a DLC or a whole game of it's own. Probably comes to GOG and Steam when it's finished.

It feels short because it's quite addictive. I can only play late in the evening and, if lucky, sometimes a bit during a week-end. Started the game on a Saturday eve, finished it by Thursday , well let's say Friday very early in the morning. I would say around 12 hours.

What was to be a "Berlin mini-dlc" is now branded as "Dragonfall" expansion. Adding the tileset for a new city ( well, Berlin ), a new campaign and bringing improvements to the game. The expansion will require the base game.

Not a clue yet about the release date. They should announce it soon, imo
I finished the game a while ago and i say its a great game. For some reason i actually like the reading instead of the voice acting.
But i learned that you need to strategize in order to finish. Took me several attempts.
