es-ce que le jeu est juste en anglais

Merci j’attends votre réponse

Big fan of Braid here. Have been dying to play this, but haven’t yet because I held off because of the old rumor that there would be a physical release. It seems that idea is currently abandoned (as of Dec. 2016). Have you considered partnering with Limited Run Games for a PS4 release at least. They do physical releases in small batches of only thousands and they sell out every time. Looking at the comments, there seems to be some kind of market for a physical disc. This would be awesome!

Regards,

Not at present.

Are there any chances that you will work on physical retail for PC?

I really want to buy it on disc and put it up my shelf next to the others. = )

Thanks for the clarification, have been waiting for retail, will buy online now that i know it’s not coming.

And a physical release for PC ?

Not currently.

However I will definitely wait for a physical version, my old school gamer heart still loves good old discs !

Not yet. We are working on it. Right now the game is only available as a digital download.

Why not IOS? I– and millions of others — haven’t used a PC in 10+ years.
When will you start working on it? Thank you

There is not a boxed version of the game yet, only a download. There may be a boxed version eventually.

As a Mac and Xbox One owner, I am currently crushed.

Thank you everyone that weighed in on my question. I really appreciate the information. I am assuming it isn’t going to work well. I can’t really buy a new computer to play this game even though I want to very badly. I guess I will jsut ahve to wait or see if I can borrow someone’s PS4. Thanks again!

If you can even connect to the store, have you tried? It’s been down over 24 hours for me on all systems.

Can you enable pre-loading at midnight at the very least? I’d like to be able to download overnight and be able to play it in the morning.

Hey Jonathon, what about PS4? Will that be at 9 am as well tomorrow or will it be released within the hour? I don’t want to sit up forever to wait and drive myself crazy

We will push the button to release on Steam at 9am tomorrow… then however long it takes to propagate through Steam, that is when it comes out.
I would press it at midnight if I had the option, but we don’t!

It’ll probably be on psn around noon when Sony decides to update the store. That’s usually how it goes here in New York at least. It sucks, but there’s not much devs can do about it. This is the only thing I can’t stand about Sony, besides their ridiculous refund policy.

Sony loves updating the playstation store unbelievably late in the day. As much as I wish it would update at midnight, it updates anywhere from like 4pm-8pm EST

We might be able to do one eventually but aren’t working on it right now.

It will work with keyboard and mouse, or with a gamepad (such as the Xbox 360 or PS4 gamepad).

On the PC I usually play with keyboard and mouse.

Sup Mel.

I have the same question.

Sure, after the game has been out a few weeks.

Good job Mr.Blow and the rest of your team i hope you have a wonderful launch day!

At some point in the future, if just through coded message or some such, will you please reveal the area you were talking about in the game that you worked on over that “vacation?”

People pay for experiences without tangible products all the time: going to a movie, a concert, a tour, a museum. Often these paid experiences are much shorter than games and are much more expensive. I don’t think paying for an experience is strange, new, or exploitative.

Though Jon didn’t mention anything new concerning a potential physical version of the game, last I heard they were still considering it. Jon apparently didn’t have a great experience doing this process with Braid…

But remember that a DRM free version is also available, if you really care about physical copies, you could get a blue-ray or similar and burn it on the CD, copy it as much as you want!

Like many others here, I’m sure many people would love to get some extra goodies (limited edition artbook etc.). Maybe this will come up in the near future once things settle down a little :)

Yes.

If the plastic box, disc, and manual is really worth more than half of the full price you pay for the game to you, that’s fine. But most people value those items at almost nothing and indeed many even prefer not having them so they don’t have to store them anywhere or mess with exchanging discs when they want to play a game. Many people are willing to pay more than $40 for the right to play an outstanding video game; that’s not obscene, and they’re not being exploited.

This is coming from someone who generally prefers buying physical copies of things.

On Steam it will go live at the same time as it does everywhere else in the world.
On PSN it will be a while if ever. The situation on the PS4 is very complicated and requires a lot of extra things to happen.

(We would like to get it on PSN in Asia as soon as we can, of course! The problem is it is not really up to us.)

It is random at the top of the page, but not random at the bottom of the page. I dunno wtf is going on, I was hoping they would fix it, but hey whatever.

Fine, but you have to realize that most of the games you can download on Steam / PSN / etc would not exist at all if we were still in the age of retail, because nobody would take the risk to fund and publish those games.

As to why I have that attitude… I started developing games back in the mid 80’s and gaming has always been a tangible industry to me. Boxes, discs, manuals etc… it’s all part of the product. I get that some people are okay with buying bits and bytes, but I expect more if I am to pay £30. I only buy music on CD, I only buy films and TV shows on Blu Ray or DVD, so it’s not just a gaming thing.

The digital age suits some people, I’m not one of them. Put this on a disc, in a box, with some printed media, something that I can hold in my hand… something that *feels* worth £30 and you can have my money gladly.

I mean, let’s put this into perspective… this is only £5 less than I paid for my disc version of GTAV, seven discs and a printed map in a quality package… and that *was* a triple A title. Heck, this is £5 *more* than I paid for my disc version of Project Cars. Digital gaming has done exactly what I predicted 10 years ago, created a market and then exploited it to the point of being obscene.

Yes, does anyone know the release date in ASIAN play stores (South-East Asia specifically)

@ Mr. Garrison

MMMMMMM-ONSTER KILLL!!!

Thank you! :-)

Yes, there is that too.

You will get the option to pick between the DRM-free download or the Steam version when you purchase at humble. So it’s pretty straightforward. You don’t get two copies though, you just pick one or the other.

Humble Bundle page says that we will receive a “DRM-free OR Steam version”.

Could you clarify this? How to proceed to acquire the DRM-free version?

*an XB exclusive

Jeez dude… Garrison literally just got done explaining it to you, and you go and do the exact thing again. Granted, he may have been a little mean in his explanation, and I may have found it a little hilarious, but it doesn’t make what he said wrong.

Everyone on here knows that Hector MEANT console exclusivity, except for you apparently. And so rather than let it go, you have to condescendingly correct him on something that wasn’t even incorrect. As a matter of fact, he said “exclusivity to that console”, swap the words around a bit, and you literally have “console exclusivity” as in “it’s not on Xbox or Nintendo etc”.

As for your second point. “its “console exclusivity” really doesn’t matter.” While I appreciate your belief that it falls on you to tell everyone what should and should not matter to them, there are literally millions of gamers who play on a console everyday who have never touched a gaming PC. To them, which console holds CONSOLE exclusivity to a game that will also be on PC absolutely “really does matter”. I own an XB1 and a PS4, if I hear a game is coming out on XB and PC, in my mind, it is basically and Xbox exclusive.

How about the opposite? Is there options to turn the settings down low so the game runs smoothish on a low-end PC? I don’t have a PS4 so I can’t get it there.

Alas, it’ll be 2am on the 27th that it comes out.

The PS4 version is better than a minimum-requirements PC by quite a margin.

A high-spec PC is better still than the PS4.

Mouse vs. controller is really personal preference, but with the PC you can choose either.

Hi Nathan,

While it will run, I’m afraid it’s unlikely to be a good experience on those specs.

Our minimum required GPU is an Intel HD Graphics 4000. Annoyingly, Intel have released multiple GPUs, both before and since the 4000, that just report the name “Intel HD Graphics” with no version number. They also reset the number sequence to lower numbers a short while ago. In all cases, the no-number GPUs tend to be non-gaming focused.

So in that case, it’s probably easiest to go by year. The 4000 was released in 2012, so any Intel part much older than that (or from around the same time but with a lower number) is unlikely to run the game well.

Here’s more info about Intel GPUs than you could possibly want, but basically the further down the list it is, the newer it is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_graphics_processing_units

I’m going to put together a post to simplify some of this stuff on the steam forums once they start working again…

-Andy

I don’t actually know if the game runs acceptably on HD2000 or 3000 as we haven’t tested it; the lowest chipset we have available to us right now is HD4000.
If we ran on a 2000 and found it okay, we might lower the minimum spec. We just don’t know.

The PS4 already looks good, but yes, on a fast PC you can pick settings that are higher than the PS4 (less LOD popping, etc).

Aussie dollars were not so kind.

Aussie to Loonie must be about parity, because we were charged $58.

I regret nothing. Take my money.

This news makes me unbelievably happy for some unknown reason. :-D

The stickler here is the graphics card; the minimum GPU requirement for The Witness as listed on the Steam page is the Intel HD 4000.

The i3-350 seems to have the original HD graphics (predecessor to HD 2000 and 3000).

The linked article mentions that you might have an additional discrete card (NVIDIA G210M); however, this is only around as fast as the Intel HD 3000, which is a generation behind the minimum spec.

Without the game in our hands, it’s hard to definitively say it won’t run, but it looks like it likely won’t (at least very well, especially at the native 1080p of your screen).

You might want to wait for reports on performance after release — I have a 2011 Macbook Air (HD 3000) that I will be testing the game on.

Just get it wherever is most convenient for you! If a deal is ever bad enough for us that we don’t feel it’s fair, we just don’t sign it.

There is a run button!

There won’t be VR at release. Possible VR support in the future, but some stuff breaks with VR so they’d have to fix/redesign it first.

It looks like you meet the minimum requirements. So it’ll run, just not necessarily at maximum settings. Hope that helps you! :)

Thank you! I am still confused though. I am not great with computers and am not sure if my stuff matches the needed requirements. This is my computer’s specs:

Computer: SONY Vaio
OS: Windows 7
Processor: Intel (R) Core (TM) i3 CPU M 350 @ 2.27GHZ
Memory: 4.00GB (3.67 GB usable)
Graphics Card: Intel(R) HD Graphics
Direct X: 11
Storage: 366 GB

Here is a link to what computer it is: http://liliputing.com/2009/10/sonly-introduces-vaio-l-all-in-one-touchscreen-desktop.html

Can anyone tell me if this will work? I really want this game and have been waiting for 3 years to play. Now I am worried my computer might not be able to hack it.

What’s the deal with VR?!

The web site went down so I didn’t put the preorder up here. I am hoping to do that tomorrow (Friday).

He said that the exclusivity WAS one of the reasons he purchased a PS4 a while ago, back when it still was PS4 exclusive.

He says it’s exclusive to PS4, which it isn’t.
Because it’s also on PC at the moment, so it doesn’t exactly justify buying a PS4, its “console exclusivity” really doesn’t matter.

Scroll down this page to see system requirements: http://store.steampowered.com/app/210970/

You can see Jon’s answer to this in a recent post. He said no VR support at launch but they might get it going at some point.

I laughed out loud at this reply.

I wish you and your team the best of luck! I really hope that The Witness is a huge success!

Could you clarify this? How to proceed to acquire the DRM-free version?

Regarding the price, from everything you’ve described it sounds well worth it, to me. And it’s refreshing to see not all games need to subscribe to the false dichotomy of $60 AAA or <$20 indie with nothing in between.

Here's to a successful launch 1/26!

Not to be as much of cad as you, but there’s something called context that you must have missed in elementary school english class, as well as punctuation. Hector is saying, in regard to CONSOLES, it is exclusive to the PS4. As in it’s not on Xbox or Nintendo etc… Time to get that G.E.D. thats been holding you back?
