    deleted, because the ui and controls are just not good enough, the story is actually nothing special too. and the text in the description that this game is epic rpg is not right too.

    Tried to sync my achievements that I already have completed but they are still not showing in Game Center but are in Open Feint. I did get one achievement show up in Game Center after I updated and then got that particular one achievement ingame

    Am I just being inpatient and it should show up soon or is it still not working completely?

    Not working completely. Finished the bug bear quest in version 1.0 but still no achievement for it when i uPdated to 1.1. Same thing with the achievement for getting the tunes for the crone, light fairy, completing houton, and a lot more. I'm at chapter 8 btw with only 8 achievements

    Early adopters usually create a ruckus about a game going on sale soon after release. Wonder how they are going to feel about this 16.69% discount :)

    Well, they said the price was going to go up soon to $9.99, but they discounted the game by another dollar instead. I hardly care since it's a damn great game, but meh.

    Well, I paid $6 when it came out and I don't regret it. Plus, it's not like EA's or GL's 90% off sale which is anoying.

    Oh don't get me wrong, as an early adopter for quite a few titles, one does feel wronged if the prices of games you just bought drop by half or more in a few weeks. But the 1$ dollar drop in the world of 0.99$ sales is... incongruous. And amusing.

    If you still are having a problem with this, log out of your Openfeint within the app (keep yourself logged in gamecenter), press synchronize and this should solve it.

    It's a problem with Openfeint— it thinks that the achievement is complete so it ignores it and it won't let it synchronize with Game Center.

    I agree, $5.99 to $4.99 is no big deal. $5.99 to 99 cents is very annoying. However, if I can pay for the game by getting two Pike's Place coffees instead of Caramel Macciatos, and still get 20 hours of play out it, I've come out ahead. (No, my budget isn't that tight, but just making a point.) Regardless, for all the reasons that everyone mentioned before, I'm glad I bought at full price to support a company that is porting games like this. We need to support work like this instead of freemium crapola like DH3.

    Amen. If anything this sorta sale is more respectable to me. Its been out for a while and people that bought they game got plenty of enjoyment out of it. This is a little something to entice new buyers

    Would love to check this one out, but it it's a little too pricey and the size is way too big

    What are all the IAPs in this game? Anything to be concerned about?

    The IAP are designed to cater to casual players. Without the IAP, the game plays exactly as it did on the PS2/PC.

    It is, but there is a reason for such sales. There are lots of people out there who wont pay more then $0.99 - really lots of them. But I really hope it takes some time.

    btw. Apple deleted all ratings on the german appstore. Mostly 1 star ratings because of missing german language in 1.0.
