Thank you so very much everyone for coming out and asking questions. We really appreciate the support! Back to work... zug zug, etc etc.. :D

The previous message still stands, so I'm going to leave it up. Thank you so very much.

Okay, so, here's the deal. We got totally Obama'd. It's cool though - we are seriously going to write his administration and demand a case of White House beer as reparation for his faux pas.

Thank you so much, all of you, for your support of us and for your interest. We really want to do right for the community who loves this game, and for who this game is sacrosanct. You guys rule.

Here's the link to the AMA: http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/z1af7/we_are_overhaul_games_the_team_behind_baldurs/

Feel free to keep posting your questions, you didn't miss it yet. (it's over now!)


---snip---
We're LIVE! Come on out and ask away!

EDIT: holy cow... so apparently Obama is doing an AMA at the same time (surprise!) the site is under heavy load, but we'll be here for hours to come so please be patient.

Hey all,

we've had a few people express to us that they were interested in having a Q&A session with the BG:EE team! So, we decided the best place to do this Q&A would be on reddit this upcoming Wednesday TODAY!

For those not familiar, a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) is a kind of open-forum interview. You can see an example of what it's all about here: http://www.reddit.com/r/iama
We'll be available from the start time until the end of our work day, so, probably at least 4+ hours.

Taking part will be everyone present in the office - myself, Trent Oster, our designers, our artists, our writers and our programmers. We'll make a formal introduction on the day of for you to read and find out exactly who we all are.

For necessary reasons it has to be an "AMAA" - Ask [us] ALMOST Anything - as even though we're willing to answer pretty much anything there will be some contractual-related questions we may not be able to answer depending on what people want to know.

If you have questions for the team, now's your chance to be heard and answered as best we can. =)

Help us get the word out - chances are the time will be too tight for us to do another session like this before the game is released. We're looking forward to hearing from you! =)

-Nathan (and Team Overhaul!)

    There might be a slight delay as @PhillipDaigle and I edit each other's jokes.

    The twist: repeated edits result in jokes that are only vowels.

    @Fake_Sketch The recent Dan Harmon AMA alone totally justifies Reddit's existence.

    The only thing I want to know about is when will people who pre-ordered the game be able to download it?
  • PhillipDaiglePhillipDaigle Member Posts: 654
    Early next month. We can't say the exact date yet.

    Being from the UK and therefore totally ignorant of US time zones, what does MST stand for or what cities does it cover?

    MST = Mountain Standard Time. Currently, subject to Daylight Savings, GMT -6. http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/time-zone/gmt-6/

    Hope that helps! If it's easier to do the math from a coast, then 3:30pm Eastern Standard Time, or 12:30pm Pacific Standard Time. =)

    @Anduin, I answered it here but also edited the title of the post to reflect it. =)

    In UK we have Greenwich Mean Time or GMT for short. Does MST stand for Mad Silly Time? A plus or minus GMT or local city will help us work out timings... Please I wanna see the interview!

    I thought MST was -7 GMT

    Edit: I forgot about daylights savings -6 is correct!
  • NathanNathan Member Posts: 1,007

    I believe MST is -7 GMT

    Currently, -6 GMT due to Daylight Savings.

    You'll be able to ask us just about anything you like during the AMA. @TrentOster has some stories I'm sure he'd be willing to share. :D
