    A good number of backers will wake up and login once they see the game box in their hands!

    Keanu was a good choice for that.

    Would these be the backers that confirmed thier address around Launch or others? I'm not sure how anyone could get a surprise box given the process.

    I said this somewhere else but if I were port I'd ship out physical post cards to the thousands of physical KS backers who didn't link their KS to this page. The post card would say, link your KS and confirm your address and we'll ship you the game! Remember that game you kickstarted? It has officially launched, join us and log in today!

    Literally, a few thousand players would login to check it out, the claim that some Ultima fans don't know about this game is true, but more specifically, some Ultima fans that actually backed the game also forgot, people do forget as time moves on. 4 years isn't that long for a game to be developed, but people have a bad memory and short attention span, it would be a gamble, but it's one I'd be willing to take if I wanted these backers in the game.

    Yeah that's a good one, but in my meme Keanu actually ages lol

    They were supposed to be shipped for a few releases. Starr posted an update and it looks like backer (collector) boxes will be shipped soon and backers will receive an email notification by the subcontractor. There will also be another post in this forum.

    Looking on the brightest possible side, maybe it would be a good idea to ship the game to the unconfirmed addresses, too. Some lucky random person, who doesn't even have a gaming PC, might discover Shroud for the first time via random mailings. Keke.

    Did we get an update about the book signed by Tracy Hickman? I've seen it raised here multiple times but never seen an official response after the "doesn't fit in the box" one from Darkstarr. Curious, because that's one of the items I'm looking forward to the most.

    Soon. I wish he would have supplied context to "soon". We've been hearing "soon" for some time.

    I'm thinking "soon" in a geological timescale context. International packages will be able to be delivered on foot when Pangea II finally forms.

    Actually, I just posted to see if I can get the last post in before the admins shut down this thread too. They shut down any thread about physical goods after a small number of posts to it.
