Journal Special

[snabbott]

All the music IS as good as that!

I liked the music but i hardly cared about it after 10 minutes in, it just sounded all the same to me tbh.

There is different background music for different places/times. I think it's kind of like in the movies - a lot of times, you're not really aware of the music, but it contributes a lot to the feel of the game.

In games I hardly pay attention to music really. I pay more attention to the game itself, but I do notice when their's an absence of music. Listening to just the music, I can tell it's quite good. It's very well orchastrated, and it sounds beautiful. I love the main theme of the game. I hope you guys release a soundtrack download (I remember mention of one some time ago...)

What I mean is that from what we know thus far of the first part, spoilers aren't as prominent. Considering the game is supposed to continue for two more parts, there of course have to be cliff-hangers and big plot points for those respective games, but we haven't gotten to that part yet. Right now, all gears are focused on Shadows, and spoilers for that particular game aren't nearly as common as they once were. I remember the good old days... lol j/k

Just to let everyone know, I've been majorly busy with school and haven't had time to update the facebook group (and sadly my school blocks facebook) but I hope to have the group updated by tonight. Any update on the final journal special? I may hold out on updating the facebook group so that I can update it with both entry 11 and 12, but we'll see. I can't wait for the next journal special!!!!!!!

[Yonkey]

I would actually say to just go ahead and update it for entry 11.  It'll still be a while before the final entry is finished.

What's the face book web address?

[Yonkey]

What's the face book web address?

Do a group search for "TSL Phoenicians".

[dark-daventry]

Thanks Yonkey. I'll update the group right now!

[samthunder]

Will it be up before Christmas? Before 12.12 "The Day the Earth Stood Still"?

[atec123]

I hope

[dark-daventry]

I hope so too, but you never know. Only time will tell...

[samthunder]

I saw in another topic that Phoenix does not have full control of when they can release the game because it will first need to go to Vivendi Universal for final approval before it is released. True?

I hope Journal entry 12 talks about this, Vivendi's stipulations and requirements and final date they give the OK light on the project.




Sincerely,

Sam

[dark-daventry]

I imagine the final entry will at least touch on that subject. And from what i had heard, VU does indeed control the release date of TSL...

[atec123]

hey, samthunder, You cross posted again.  Yes, I hope it will to D-D.

[samthunder]

and I hope they mention the Non disclosure agreement that beta testers had to sign and its facts and details once the agreement expires, or the game or a public beta is released, whichever is sooner.

[Yonkey]

and I hope they mention the Non disclosure agreement that beta testers had to sign and its facts and details once the agreement expires

The NDA never expires, even for people that leave the team.  There is a portion of the entry that discusses the rationality behind having the NDA though.

[atec123]

Great, I was wondering about that, I really can't wait.

[dark-daventry]

Neither can I! It really sounds like a really great read!

[Yonkey]

I'm sure it will.  

Oh, and I hear that Santa has entry #12 already packed up on his sleigh...

[koko_99_2001]

lol! Sounds like it is going to be December 25th

[snabbott]

...unless Santa loses it or decides to keep it for himself !
