I haven’t played too much of ep2 yet and I don’t want to read back in the thread for fear of spoilers, but I have a question about the section in Mercuria… Isn’t Kian supposed to be wearing a veil that makes him invisible except to people he knows well, or to people he shows himself to? They said it like three times so I thought that was the case, but it seems like everyone can see him just fine—people he *didn’t* make himself known to, like the guy outside the Mole’s who calls him over, or the kid who tries to pickpocket him.

Did I misunderstand? Is he not wearing it yet?

Maybe he’s just using it in front of the guards? You know, when the color of the screen gets changed? Maybe only then he doesn’t want to be seen because he knows that he has to rely on other people’s help in order to complete certain tasks? Although, one sequence later in the game doesn’t make much sense, either way you look at it…

He is definitely using it.

Every time you pass a guard the screen goes blue, and you get comments from the guards like “Is there a ghost here?”

[spoiler]As for why so many can still see him?
Well… It might not work on magicals, Anna obviously knows him very well, and is perhaps using a similar veil herself, he only wants to conceal himself from the enemy but not the people he is suppose to interact with…
They needed some mechanism to avoid having Kian arrested on sight, but otherwise more or less simply ignored it. It doesn’t make complete sense, but it serves its purpose./spoiler]

Kian is using the magical shield. There’s two ques to it: the guards wondering if there’s someone near them and then there’s the screen darkening effect when Kian walks past guards.

its a game not movie or a novel, and even, one should Not* really be picky about those matters, Kian Veil exposed or not, if taken too seriously would disturb the puzzles and gameplaying; as with when Kian was trying to blow the harbor shipment the guard saw him every time he passed by to make an intense immersion to the puzzle, other wise it wouldn’t had been that immersive and fun, i like think of it this way; the director of games (or movies) are gods of their own work, and god works in mysterious ways.

Ragnar Tornquist also announced new look for Kian on Twitter. I wonder how will they transform him? I mean, he already looks gorgeous! Heart

She looks pretty good for someone who survived a nasty accident. I can’t see how this is a bad thing. It’s keeping line with the story.

A week and a half ago, Ragnar Tornquist was here in Croatia, doing a lecture on storytelling. Wow, so much new details about Book Three. Laughing

One guy took some photographs from early build:

Do you know something that I don’t, because I was under impression it’ll be released this month. Ragnar specifically told us (on the conference) that we won’t wait for such a long time (as we have for other episodes).

Hey, I noticed that Dreamfall Chapters is on sale over at GOG, and since I’m one of the few people that hasn’t bought this game yet, I’m thinking about picking it up. There are a couple different versions though, and since I’m too lazy to see if this has already been discussed in this (or another) thread, can someone tell me why you might prefer the “Special Edition” over the regular one?

I think the only difference are the extras:

Reborn: The Art of Dreamfall Chapters Book One — a digital art book featuring concept art and illustrations from the first episode of Dreamfall Chapters
Journeys Birth — two short stories in PDF and ebook formats, set in The Longest Journey universe and leading up to the events in Dreamfall Chapters (available October 20th)
Digital soundtrack featuring music from Dreamfall Chapters Book One in FLAC and MP3 format (available November 1st)
Digital Europolis tourist map! Sponsored by Niyom Media and presented by Crowboy, everyone’s favourite crow cowboy (coming soon!)

Nothing really special and most of them has not been released so I don’t think its worth it. (and you can buy the upgrade later anyway)
