If I recall correctly, that was the first game that I ever finished. 
Although the beginning really bugged me.

Pretty cheap price but like you say even for cheap price, you want the game 
to be interesting to you. I played Sanitarium years ago when it first came 
out. I've never replayed it. It was just an OK game, but for $1.59, you 
can't beat the price if you think you will be interested in the game. I am 
playing Tesla Effect which I find very difficult at times, a lot of going to 
various places. I am using 2 walkthroughs but some puzzles or tasks are 
still hard to get past. I started Dreramfall Chapters and stuck already near 
the start. The interface is hard to get used to.

Have you already reached the Institute ? While impressive in size
and (rather so) visually, I couldn't help thinking that whole segment
was borrowed from some other project. Frequent dying for accidental
or even random things, such as buzzing wasps, got quite tiresome, and
pixel hunting aspect in an adventure game was never that high on my list
in the first place.

I will let it pass for a while - Werner's reports of initial bugs
made me decide to wait for patches to come tut. Moreover, price will
probably be down about 10bucks by X-mas or so, I am looking for ~15$
range.

SPOILER SPACE








Do you mean Sesen and Incubation? The part with the darkness and dark 
figures with flashlights appearing and you frequently die.Very annoying 
part. It took me a long time to get past that- even with a walkthrough you 
still have to navigate your way through. I don't remember buzzing wasps. 
Dying, timed puzzles or tasks in games are the worst in my view, along with 
pixel hunting. I am on day 7. Did you use a walkthrough? I am using 2 but 
still get stuck and have to find my own way out of certain situations. Are 
you finished the game? I am probably three quarters through -it's slow 
going - so many things to do. If I wasn't stuck as often. I would like to 
have had more interaction with the characters on Chandler Ave. I haven't 
seen them since early in the game.

There have been a few patches so far I think. I am probably stuck because I 
can't figure out how to interact with one of the first characters in the 
game. Yes, wait till around Xmas or maybe even before, and Dreamfall Chaps 
could be on sale. Gog quite often has good specials on weekends and Steam 
might have it on sale.

Good Morning
I am at a roadside cafe on my way to client, so I keep this short:
-No you are not yet at the Institute. You will know for certain once
you get there :) Mines on the floor, buzzing wasps, energy bolts,
zombies, giant spiders, you name it. Dozens of ways to die :)

Yup will look into Chapters this evening. I am only one star away
of claiming a freebie from autumn sale so I will be checking in there
anyway :)

Cheers !!

Yes I hve finished the game. However I bought it pretty much at once it
got out in May, so there were really no walkthrus available at the time.
Did consult the in-game hint system but nothing outside. IIRC your
progess is close to reaching the Institute, but that segment is really
all another game in itself. The Institute is HUGE and has several
subgames in it.
BTW IMHO it does not fit in with the rest of the game, so I repeat my
previous statement - it is as if it is borrowed from whole another
1st person sneaker/shooter project altogether.

Now gotta hit the road. A meeting with client in Turku is waiting.
Cheers !!

I just came to the Institute part soon after I emailed you yesterday. I have 
done a few things, but this part looks more complicated than the part I just 
got out of. Haven't seen any buzzing wasps yet, but maybe I have that to 
look forward to
yet :(

How do you save up stars on Gog or Steam ?

You did much better than me if you only used the in-game hint system as 
sometimes it was quite vague but was more helpful other times. I still had 
to use 2 walkthroughs - 2 places in the game took me quite a long time to 
get past.

It wasn't the only part that seemed to have more than one subgame in it.

>BTW IMHO it does not fit in with the rest of the game, so I repeat my

At The Institute there is so much to do.
Sometimes the game is quite interesting, other times it's tedious and takes 
a while to move ahead. I've got mixed feelings about the game so far.

Yes, you should wait. It will be cheaper at some point or on sale. I thought 
you meant you meant you got stars and eventually could buy Chapters cheaper. 
Wouldn't that be nice? :)
