In less than 24 hours, Fallen Enchantress will be released in its 1.0 form! I'm in a bit of shock just thinking about it. Two full years of development. It's hard to believe how fast the time has gone by.
Around 1pm EST on October 23, the game will be released. If you order it sooner, it'll be the last Beta (0.99) and it'll upgrade to the 1.0 version.
I went around the office today to interview more people who worked on the game. Here's their story:
Also, if you want to get a sneak peek at the user manual, here it is: https://stardock.cachefly.net/FE_manual.pdf
We'll have a few more goodies to show off tomorrow. Stay tuned and thank you again for all your support!
Here we go!
Yay, been waiting for this last one!
You and your team have created an excellent game. Nuff said.
Thanks!
Lol - I saw Tuidjy's avatar on Toby's computer screen.
1pm thats perfect timing, just after gym and finished my homework.
Congrats! I can't wait! Ceresa's backstory for the win!
oooo spooky... lols.
Looking forward for a big success with new people buying the game. I've been working on my friends to buy the game, but they really want the multiplayer for the game... That's just how it goes I guess.
This was the thread he was looking at...

Nice. Oh and the bell chimes I asked for are absolutely divine. Loved that part of the interviews. It was a little disturbing to see the similarities between this fake video of work environments and the ones Saddam used to put out.
You aren't fooling anyone Derek. Now show us the dungeon where you keep the slaves!
Completely and utterly awesome.
Two years to complete a Spell of Making, eh? That's real grit, determination and devotion for you.
Thanks, Stardock, for listening to your fans, understanding their disappointment and grievances (rather than fly into a rage to squelch criticism), and delivering in spades where you fell short on release day. Your team delivered with style, not on a sour note, and that not only makes up for the launch, but brings Stardock back on the "I can preorder titles from from this company again with confidence" list.
Great job to all those involved, look forward to seeing (and buying) the next Stardock game!!!
('-')y
More interviews with Stardock staff who are members of the E:FE Development team -- Nice ! Interesting stuff, and provides some added insights ... as well as hints and tips of things to come.
I do agree very much with Brian Clair; when he makes the point that Music, and Sound Effects, can make a big difference in how you perceive a game, and ultimately, how much you enjoy a game. The results can be subtle; but the Right Music and the Right Sound Effects can make a huge difference in the degree of immersion that you experience playing the game. And immersive games are the ones that people come back to ... to lose themselves in (to play) ... again and again !
Good luck with the release!!
Frogboy said the AI generally avoids quests on lower difficulties and when it does do a quest, it rolls combat rating against quest difficulty to determine if the AI wins or not. Oh well, I guess the calculations used for this could use a little tweaking, but we would never have noticed this if the AI didn't win any of the big quests before Season 50.
see, proof we do read the forums
So why does Toby not comment?
Probably in Derek's slave pen
Excellent final video!
silly, kestral2040 is toby's avatar.
Doh!
Well if you are tired of feeling like a god when you play, you could always switch over to my mod tomorrow. It makes you feel like prey.
Go ahead,,, try playing as Pariden.
frogboy did you fix strategic casting for ai
It's not going to be fixed as near as I can tell. Maybe in the next update for AI. I believe there is a long thread for this, but it was a while ago we asked for this and no luck so far. I am currently just upping the AI Value to see if that works. I'll let you know.
Oh I didn't know there was a thread. My bad
No problem. It's an old thread.
Quick question: To get the full version of FE we will just log in to Stardock Central and get it from there, same way as the beta?
Also i've read somewhere on the forums that there was some talk of allowing us to use the Cd-keys that we get on Steam, so we can also get it from steam or did i mis read something? Thanks for any answers
few more hours
