azrael4h: Doesn't work. Gave it permission, it crashed. Tried to load again, it crashed again, without triggering the firewall. After several attempts to get the stupid thing to get past the Paizo splash screen, I gave up.

It is not my job to do QA for a developer. I do enough of that at work. I should not have to jump through hoops to make something I paid hard earned money for work. Not when single-person devs like ConcernedApe do a vastly superior job ensuring their product actually works and can be played. It's 2021; and it wasn't remotely acceptable to release a literally unplayable game in 1977 on a Commodore PET, Apple II, or TRS80, and sure as heck isn't now. I just filed the claim for the refund, and know better than to support Owlcat in the future.
Yes, because most of the people playing this game around the world can't actually play it. There are always outlier cases, which yours is obviously. Don't be a jerk and call something unacceptable because you're the one affected. Realize it could be something unique to your personal set-up and work with the devs if they are willing to help, which they obviously are in this case.

In some cases it's really an issue with PC or MAC in others as in mine it is Unity that was causing me no end of trouble. I blame the framework for it because most of the performance issues, memory being gobbled up, CtD, GPU use to almost a 100% causing those dreaded performance issues, all of which ultimately made me request for a refund. EUR 100 is just a little much to put up with it and wait until eventually things are fixed for me which is unfortunate. In a few months time it should work and most bugs will be gone. I will buy it again and keep it on my list because I was looking forward to this one thinking that with all the beta testing and participation going on nothing can go wrong. Sad to find that it's not the case.

So, thanks again, Cokiie, for trying to help me sorting the problem out, keep it up because that's what makes me come back and buy at a later date. Dedication and community interaction are going a long way down in my book alright so I wish you and team all the best.

Count-JN: When I start game first time (after install and lauch of the game yesterday) then yes. You get popup for asking permission for game to get connection for internet. That is OK and I give it permission and was easily able to play the game like I should be. Have not seen any problems what so ever after that. Not yesterday, not today. All work like a charm. So my suggestion is: try to give game permission to get connection for internet. It will use it for cloud saves. So it actually benefit you (even if you delete game from your computer when you later install it again you can get your save files and continut playing).

Hi. Sorry about the crashes. Could you send me your crashdumps and crash logs? I'll take a look at them to try and find the cause of these.
