    Personally, I don't care because this s such a great game. Do I wish the price went up instead of down? Sure! However, when looking at the platform we're playing on I'm not surprised or upset at all. I will still instabuy games for as long as premium versions are available.

    Look at all the talk in the Terra Noctis thread (one of the best platforming experiences I've ever had on any platform).

    Actually I haven't tried, but that should be one of the benefits.

    But more interesting is saving on iPad, continue on the go on iPhone and then continue on iPad again.

    Bit annoying about the radical price drop so soon... But I can live with that...

    However I really hate that they use the icon to advertise this price cut... Especially since I paid the full price and still have to put up with this cheap, tacky and tasteless "sale" icon on my iPad.

    C'mon guys... You can treat your customers with contempt but please don't make their iPad icons look bad too - that's rubbing salt into a wound...

    Any word on when the new version is coming out? The ended the sale but still have the old icon, and still have the warning about the iCloud save. I'm going through some other games since I was just waiting for the new version. I know as soon as I start the new version will come out. :)

    Just got this game! Any tips from people? Like should I dedicate all my points to a certain category, or just spread it all out as I go?

    I almost used all of the points towards range weapon thingy. Hope that helps (finished it a while a go and will give it another play soon).

    Thanks, but I think I'm going to try and spread it out a bit. Anyways, wow what a deep and intriguing game so far. Usually not a huge fan of RPGs, but just simply wow. What an awesome game and a steal for 2.99

    Well, TA gave it a 4/5

    I gave it a 9.5/10 My rating was a bit biased because I love Fable on console and this reminded me of it.

    I have a question. Does choosing the nice or rude response actually affect the way the story turns out? Like I'm not really sure if I should be rude or not to some people.

    Yes, the reason it's in the game is to effect outcomes.

    I don't find it hard on the battery.

    Also yeah the nice or rude responses will affect the game, sometimes choosing one option may make things a bit easier and vice versa.

    So...I'm having a crazy time trying to beat the Fnarf guy, the trow that keeps summoning new trows in the highland park. I don't know what to do, cause everytime I kill someone, he spawns another, and when I finally get to him he teleports..SO FRUSTRATING :confused:. But anyways, is there a different way to approach him or something, or should I use my bow? Thanks, some help would be awesome.
