2005. So this is it, then. Right. Looks a lot like 2004, to be honest, but I'll give it time. Maybe it'll improve once January gets going. I'm just not seeing any flying cars or sentient robots yet.

2005 is also the Year of Dreaming. Come fourth quarter, and Dreamfall will land on store shelves across the world. That's a pretty scary thought. We're far from done, and right now I just can't imagine the game ever being done done. It's existed in our heads for so long, it's rather surreal to see it take shape on the screen. Of course, by the time the launch date rolls around, I'll already be neck deep in the next project and too busy to ruminate about the process of making this one - and so it goes.

2005 will certainly be a challenging year, but then that's nothing new. We'll just have to cross our fingers and hope that it'll be a rewarding year as well. At this point, I want nothing more than to see Dreamfall completed, shipped, and living up to everyone's expectations. And, naturally, selling three million copies. That would be nice.
 
Comments:
I can't guarantee 3 million copies, but I'll definitely be buying a Norwegian one... And perhaps an English one after a while. Depends on how good you're making the game ;o)

One sign that I'm spending too much time in Dreamfall land: Recognizing Ragnar from the tiny picture on Norwegian paper Aftenposten's web page today. (http://www.aftenposten.no/)

I'll be sure to buy one when it comes to Argentina, I hope it doesn't delay too much
 
I'm sp certainly going to buy dreamfall when it hit the stores..
What about arranging a pre-ordering campaign this time, Ragnar?
 
What about distributing The Longest Journey for free over bit torrent unsupported. It isn't like Funcom hasn't had this policy with other franchises. ;)

The Dreamfall screenshots got enough coverage on major gaming sites, the release should aswell or you could buy some coverage.

I think this would guarantee more sales of Dreamfall if The Longest Journey was released for free about 3 or 2 months before Dreamfall is released.
 
now there's a good suggestion. take heed ragnar.
 
Hello Ragnar, I sure trust on your artistic, writing, and game-developing skills but don't hurry over this one or the next.

take your time and do it GOOD.

Best regards from Argentina.
Matt.
 
I guarantee one copy when it reaches Poland. Polish gamers are looking forward to see Dreamfall in Poland and we also like to see it in Polish version like great-the-best-super-game-ever-made-in-gaming-history-of-the-World The Longest Journey.

You know, every time I'm in the shop and I see TLJ box I just can't hold myself and I don't know what stops me from buying another box of the game :) Just to open it one more time. Just to play. TLJ will live forever!
 
Hullo 8)

Well, I guarantee 0.5 copy in Republic of Sakha (the other half will buy me girlie). I guess I'd like one in English, cuz no way I'm gonna choose anyone else 'xcept fer Sarah Hamilton 8)
 
Thanks for the updates--I can't believe Dreamfall is coming out *this year*. It's been so far away for so long. I really hope that the 3D and action elements aren't too distracting--I really want this story to continue! Please please please let this be as good a game as the first one.
 
Hiya! You can count on this Canadian's support! I loved TLJ! Don't rush to get Dreamfall to meet your deadline - take as much time as you need to make it as good (if not better) as TLJ!
 
2005 should be a good year. Add up the digits and you get...... 7! Which is the biblical number of completeness and perfection. Hopefully this is good for Dreamfall. I will guarantee one English copy here - I cannot wait for it to come out. I can remember the feeling at the end of TLJ - I could not BELIEVE that it was over already. It is such a great game - so great that I will even say it is my favorite computer game of all time. Hopefully Dreamfall can live up to that...
 
Two copies in Poland, two copies :) (or more)
 
1 copy atleast in Netherlands and free promotion from me atleast ;)
 
Hey,

I just read the Edge preview and now I'm extremely excited about Dreamfall, even more then I already was. Not only are the screenshots distinctive and nice to look at, the game sounds like it's not falling into conventions of the genre, but you're creating a genre around your story. I can't wait to play this game.

One Australian copy is garanteed as well.

- D.C.
 
How is the voice acting coming along by the way? Any thoughts on what language(s) you'll support.

I truly enjoyed the norwegian cast of TLJ, and would probably choose so once again over an english version if the opportunity is there.

Happy new year!
 
With the local CompuCentre (Canadian) selling TLJ for $9.99, there's no excuse for anyone not owning it :) Not that there would be an excuse at $69.99, but $9.99 is close enough to free that people should be happy.
 
I just bought my second The Longest Journey :) It was added to some magazine for 2 Euro :) That's probably why I couldn't get this numer, and I had to search all over city :)
 
Well, you can count on Greece too. At least 7 copies over here and those are only the guys I know of... I've searched over almost every review written and can't seem to wait till the game is out! Plz hurry!!!
