Jesus that's expensive.
It's a decent enough game, I didn't really like it that much when I tried years ago though.

I feel your struggle, I too was looking for work for a while and good god ontario has shit -_-

I hope you find something soon and please don't go fast food you will lose your shit so fast haha

yes its too expensive

i visited the steam page : over 110K of copies alread sold they say, , if that price is 20 bucks aswell : thats > 2.2 million dollars/euros whatever
thats ridiculous :D

and still in dev.? 4 years? if it were 14.99 i would have taken a shot at it, but 20 bucks for a ??? game that might not be finished? 2d game? why always that zooming ? i dont like zooming (game/motionsickness)


edit: demo exists :D thats a good thing i downloaded all the files :D
i will give it a thorough check .... :D

I'm one of the original Indiegogo backers, I hope they give us keys.

Fixed it for you :D

Best game ever, some say (ITT)?

My inner skeptic says, probably not..

BUT, the cute trailer does make it look interesting.


Wishlisted, awaiting final release, then we'll check it out more closely..

You can try the demo: http://www.factorio.com/ :)

For folk who bought direct they did give steam keys so there's no reason they won't do the same for gog.

If they added it to the gogconnect list that would make life easier for them and us with the exception of the folks who are overly inflexible about having anything to do with steam.

Uh no. I have contacted the devs regarding this exact question and they said "At this time we don't have this functionality planned, as we do not forsee any huge demand for this, However if we get many requests for this feature,we may look into it."

Pity though...

Thanks for the pointer. I had already noted there was a demo.

So.. when the game is finished, if there's still a demo then, I'll give it a whirl then..

It strikes me as curious that the game goes for an even $20, as no other game does that here. Usually it's .99 or what have you.

maybe because it already sold so well, imagine selling 1 million copies, and loosing that 1 cent :D

i googled on 1000000 cents

1 000 000 Eurocents = 11 248.5 U.S. dollars

Thats > 11K (11 thousand dollars) missing out on that amount of cash would make anyone feel sad...

Demo is out but i guess its only crafting part, i like the crafting part so far... but when i look for videos , most of them show the building of structures, i wanted to have demo that shows that part cause it looks like that will be the main part of the game.

The demo behavious very good, it's easy on my cpu and gpu, other games like this would barbeQ my poor pc :D
I hope the full version or any version including the machines that i see in the videos will also treat my pc with 'dignity' and wont be ehating up my gpu and cpu.

4 years in development ( read it somewhere) i know they want to make the perfect game, but perfect games dont exist, so i guess they might consider to deliver a stable game and add any major things lateron, you cant keep people 'on hold' for another 4 years.
So if we fork out 20 bucks of our hardearned cash, what game will we get? a larger version of the demo ? or maybe the demo version which allows patching of the game by the devs?

If this were a 5 or 9 bucks game i might be willing to give it a try and jump in the deep, at 20 bucks i guess i will wait a while longer.

Oh, almost forgot: i seem to be one of the few users still using crt monitor (limited to 1280x720 at 75 hz at max)
so my question is: what if i buy the game, and the devs decide to go hd.... then i would basically be f......d
c ause i would never be able to plat the game i paid for.... how will they assure me and maybe others that i wont be left out in the cold ?

I actually got a reply from a call center that _doesn't_ do the traditional corporate/capitalist calls.

I am hopeful of getting my Factorio up before the end of summer. ;)

Best of luck on your search. Ontario does indeed have slim pickings, and I'm in Northern Ontario to boot.

Could we get an official answer for what's up with this?

https://www.gog.com/forum/factorio/buyer_beware_prompts_for_username_and_password_to_update

"Bought, and installed this with Galaxy, which remarks that "updates are not handled through Galaxy." Hmm, first time I've seen that.

Launch the game and it prompts me for a username and password in order to receive updates. There is no register button or any username/password provided by GOG. The game runs fine, however."
