Firewatch |OT| With Me

Damn. Forgot about this game and I figured The Following DLC from Dying Light is what I would be playing this week, but looks like I may have to check this out instead.
Decisions. Decisions.
 
Pumped for tomorrow.

Can't believe we're barely into February and two of my most-wanted games of the year (this and The Witness) are already here.
 

Man that thread existing a full day before the game is out is something else. Even I will be staying away from it!


Btw when is the game out you ask?

February 9th (aka "tomorrow" if you live where the developers and SCEA live)
Steam hits in the morning Pacific time on all three platforms, Windows, Mac, Linux (11am is the target).
PS4 comes out hopefully near then, but it will be some time inside Sony's release window.
 
I'm so excited for this! The minute I saw this I was hooked and Olly Moss' art is sublime so I've had that wallpaper for a good while.

Congrats to the team at Campo Santo, I hope it does really well for you guys :)
 
Great OP! Can't wait to play this! So excited to experience Moss' art in 3D.

Edit: I've never seen More_Badass' user name a single time and he's a mod. Weird. GAF is so different these days.
 
Review embargo is in just a couple hours so you can double ruin your day by pouring over every review in excruciating detail until you go mad, instead of playing it!
Don't think I won't!

Congrats btw. As a long time fan so happy for you guys.
 
Excited for this. Kills me that I can't play it tonight buuuttttt, I have Wednesday off, so if it's a shorter game I could probably finish it tomorrow night.
 
Stupid question but does anybody know if this will run on a Surface Pro 1?

I know it probably won't but I'm hoping that I'm wrong :(

So that's 7pm tomorrow evening for the UK, right? There goes my hope for a midnight unlocking lol.
It's all good though!, can't wait to finally play this :)

What threads do you frequent? I have like 27k posts and almost 700 threads
 
I saw the trailer and it looks like something I'd really enjoy. At this point all the reviews will do is let me know if the game is good or not, I'm not interested in knowing the nitty gritty.

Once I can get a an idea that it is a good game I will preorder. It's not completely related to what I do for a living, but as a Firefighter the settings/conceit of the game intrigues me.
 
I don't get the title, and I don't want to google for fear of being spoiled. What am I missing?

I just pre-ordered the game on Steam. Can't wait to play! :D

I plan to spend 6 hours reading reviews to determine whether this game is worth my time.

The Twin Peaks movie was subtitled "Fire Walk With Me."

Not sure how much the game is like Twin Peaks, but the devs are fans of the show.

edit: why even try ;__; I JUST WANTED TO HELP
 
Man this thread title is something else, incredible. Glad this is supposed to be a pretty short game, probably getting it tomorrow. Seeing who worked on this, I need to play this as fast as possible.
 
Have they shown the PS4 theme anywhere yet?

We should pronto. Hopefully we put something up today. It is very similar to the art Olly did for the top of the Firewatch site (including multi-plane parallaxing like that), but it has a bunch of time of day variants that it interpolates between at different system clock intervals, so it looks different depending on when you have your dash open. Has ambient sound & a really low key music track by Chris Remo.

Sounds fucking awesome, Jake. Can't wait!

Sounds like I'll never need to use any other theme again

On a scale from Zero to Endless Happy Birthday Bear, what is the vibe in CS HQ like right now?

Follow up question, when naming your studio did you consider the ramifications of sharing initials with Counter-Strike? Follow-Follow up question, when can I expect Campo Santo: GO?

Apparently not the same ones as you! ;) Just kind of funny how many mods who are relatively new posters these days. It reiterates to me how big the forum has gotten over the years.

yeahhh. Have been wanting to change my playstation anniversary theme. Seems like a good idea to replace it with an Olly Moss theme.

That sounds real good.

I'm the only one here so far, but I'm confirmed crunching my insides into diamonds waiting for reviews to hit.

We considered a studio name in the style of Secret Level or Hangar 13, "Hidden Level 3," but kept getting ourselves excited by mistake whenever we shortened it down, and abandoned that name in favor of two words that are nonsense in English but mean "cemetery" in Spanish and Italian. Much easier on the nerves.
 
Has it been announced how much the "bundle" with the theme on PS4 will be? I've never bought one before but will be tempted due to Olly.
