It's patches are not officially released and may be unstable. It allows you to opt in to patches to test before they are released to the public. Steam has this feature and now so does Galaxy. But very few games have used it up until this point.

I'm surprised GOG approved this game since they're usually fairly strict and this has been in development for a bajillion years give or take a few eons. I guess it's had good sales?

This looks fantastic... if the forum pics up and i can get a clear impression i wouldnt mind buying beta ^_^

Also, I'm willing to bet if the reviews came out favorably... you might "Make is so!" for yourself XD

So, IS this actually on Mac? 'Cause the product page only mentions Windows.

I don't blame you
I was in alpha from the start... what seems like years ago and have since lost interest in it.
Don't get me wrong the premise of being a desert ronin with nothing particularly special about you is quite nice, makes for ambushing and vulturing (swooping in mid or just after a clash) very sweet; but there was never really that much seemingly to the game. A lot of walking through trackless sand.

This shift to being a kickstarter wannabe is only gonna 'hog tie' GOG onto titles that don't by the time of full release deserve the title of 'GOOD' in our ol' games.
Go ahead prove me wrong, fact is you don't have the facts over whether a title is or isn't until it's 'finished'.

It does however take up a slot a fully prime time game could be launched in (such as Infinite Space: Sea Of Stars who the developer I spoke with was in fact knocked back by GOG [have a look at it, for it's stated direction it really does fit the GOG catalog])

And what if any of these titles fall through? Going to be a lot of backlash when we are not 'donating' to these works, but paying for them like a pre-release.
I would personally be wary of Kenshi simply because it has taken this long and is now asking for more funding for a product 'still' in alpha.

It could have some benefits like ingratiating developers at the grass roots of their campaign to make a game for the DRM Free platform, but I doubt GOG's actually getting in at the very start and not when the product is already polished enough to satisfy their screening requirements and secondly developers serious about the DRM Free community are likely to be heading here anyways.
I mean they can take it to Indeigamestand which is little different from using the more known GamersGate, put it out in a half ass form on Humble Bundle (which with patching is oft the case); or they can bring their title to GOG which has systems in place to handle auto-updating, a community to engage and is much more recognized specifically for DRM free Indie releases (our real problem is trying to get triple A mainstream titles)

So basically fantasy-ish Mount & Blade but with more things to do and hopefully better hitboxes? Color me interested.

In fairness to the sluggish developer, I seem to remember M&B languishing in side project hell for about five years plus another year or two before Warband made it approachable. And Dwarf Fortress is well into its second decade of alpha. Of course those projects didn't require paying money up front, either. Maybe GOG will crack the whip like they apparently did with Starbound?

They only thing I can say in my limited play time is don't expect to much graphically, the game is nothing special to look at and it needs some optimization for sure. There is suppose to be a huge optimization patch in a few months. Overall though it has potential.

It's not a 'full control of your character' game like M&B. Characters are controlled in a strategy game fashion.

There are lots of things to do however I have not played in probably two years, so I'll have to update anything I'm stupid on: If you've not bought the game yet, I'd be more than happy to give you a summary of what I come across later. I don't really like doing reviews.

Well, this looks interesting, but I usually don't go for Early Access or In Development titles.

I think the only early access games I've bought were How To Survive 2 and Starpoint Gemeni 2, the latter of which I bought on Steam (since they told me it would NEVER be on GOG) and only recently found a cheap enough sale here to repurchase it where I would have bought it in the beginning. I had some others gifted to me, like Starbound and that other Terraria knock-off I can never remember the name of, but one two bad games (in all fairness I haven't played Starbound since they released a final version) and one company getting me to pay twice for the same game was enough for me to wait for release on everything from now on.

This is definitely on my list though.

Minecraft? Kappa

Is it Edge of Space?

Edit. Goddamn sneaky brackets!

Thanks! :)

1 down, 2 to go :D

Can somebody tell if:

Does it has proper save/reload or goes the roguelike route?

Realtime/action combat (Oblivion); turn based or cool-down based/ tabtargeting (WoW)?

Also other InDevs have the Devs chiming In; anybody watching of them? ;)

Devs, please bring us OS X version. Wishlisted till then :-(

Heard about this title years back and now I see it on goG, still in Dev.

Maybe will buy it eventually, even in development stage but not now. I like the idea and the tone of it so, wishlist.
