    Hi folks
    I've just taken a look at the live Steam concurrency data and were already just behind last Saturday and on a steep upward curve.

    I've opened up the data timescale (i'm no expert), and it looks promising from what I can judge. I'm in the UK and I believe its morning/mid morning Saturday in the States, so this could be a big day if I'm reading the data right.

    Well it didn't, not quite, but the trend is up.

    I think we will get some bigger numbers when they send out physical boxes to remind people they own the game and start advertising.

    Well they won't get a box unless they remember they own a game.

    If people's shipping info is accurate in Portalarium's records, people that forgot about pledging to this game will suddenly receive physical rewards, and hopefully come back in for a while and see how things are going. It is conceivable that a fair number will join in when they receive physical goods. Especially if the goods are of high quality.

    Pretty sure you need to actively go in and confirm the shipping details to receive your physical items. Those that have been ignoring the email updates won't have done that and I'm fairly sure don't get them sent out even if the address on their account is correct. So they have to have recently remembered the game to get them, the box sadly isn't gong to remind them

    That's unfortunate.

    What we have now feels like a 'soft launch' which seems a smart move. They had to go live as promised, probably to their Co publishers etc, but we aren't seeing hard selling. For instance, I haven't yet seem a big Steam campaign or other extensive web ads.

    Hopefully when they sort out the quest log and a few of the bigger issues we will see things ramping up and with luck we'll have chapters 2, 3 and beyond as SOTA is fundamentally a very promising game.

    Yeah, I'm putting in hours like I did when I made the push to level 100A.
