Dreamfall Chapters Isn't Funcom's Highest Priority

I won't be buying Age of Conan, or any other Funcom game. Why put money into the pockets of people that care so little about their current projects that they dump them off on a cliffhanger and move on to new projects? I prefer to put my cash on those who finish what they start. If Dreamfall and TLJ weren't a priority to the company, they should have put an extra few months into development and an extra few hours into Dreamfall and wrapped it up completely before moving on. Or, to put it another way, if satisfying the current fan base isn't their priority, then buying their games isn't MY priority.

I absolutely agree with you Eliza and Marcus. It's disappointing to see how little they care about their fans. We had to wait six years for Dreamfall to come out. It looks like it will be even longer for the chapters to come out. And why the online chapters anyway? Why couldn't they just make another PC/DVD that you can buy from the stores? It's like they are really enjoying teasing us and making us wait. Buying their games isn't my priority either. Hopefully some other company will put out a game that is just as good as The Longest Journey/Dreamfall and then we can forget about Funcom's crap.

OMG!!!!!!! ok i beeing waiting for what 2 years for the next chapter!!!!!! i dont give a dam about dark days are coming!!! i mean i want it cuase it looks like a game almost like the dreamfall and TLJ is =)... but still i dont care i wanna know what happen.. i go to bed ever night woundering! i played the games like 209023802802 times trying to put piecies together my self.. ITS DRIVING ME MADLY INSANE!!!!!!!

I completely agree. It's an insult to their fanbase to first make the purely commercial decision of a huge cliffhanger - and then stop caring. I understand that every company needs to maximise its profit, but given that Funcom got to produce Conan riding on the support given to TLJ in the first place, I expected better of them than to alienate the people who have stood by them for so long.

the only reason they are taking soooooooooooooo long with dreamfall chapters is down to money dreamfall floped by there standerds they where expecting to do alot better hence the big cliffhanger lucas arts did the same with monkey island when the realed the ps2 version what these companys need to understand is that adventure/point and clicks games are not mainstream and most knukleheads who play i dont no....................... grandtheft auto and gears of war games dont like games with long story lines they want guns and explosions but there is a market for a good adventure/point and click games i for one wpuld pay big bucks for a new monkey island and dreamfall chapters and i think most adventure gamers would but thses games dont get in the mags so there for mainstrem twits who only buy what the mags tell them to buy dont so apart from adventure gammers who are scouting the net for there next adventure/point and click fix which because there is soo few end up buying fable 2 dont even get me stared on that one lol FUNCOM i plead with you just make the damn game tie the lose ends up and let is get on with our lives!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree too. I love Dreamfall and the TLJ and am devestated that in all likelihood I'm not going to see how the saga resolves. Its astonishingly bad form of Fun Com to say that D:C is their lowest priority after all as the others have said, they are only still in business because of Dreamfall. I hope I'm wrong and Dreamfall: Chapters is released soon. I'll buy it even if it is only released episodically online. But like Marcus said it should be released in a oner on DVD.

I really was very disappointed to finish Dreamfall with such a cliff hanger. I was so immersed in the story and characters and suddenly...no ending...no idea whats happened to poor April, Zoe, Kian and the others. Oh Poop! I have to agree with everyone else here, it is frustrating to buy a game that you enjoy so much with a such a cliff hanging ending and then have no hope of playing the conclusion any time soon. What a terrible thing to do to customers. :(
It really does put me off buying any more games from funcom. What if they do this again?

I'm not interested in funcom's other games. So yeah, I won't be buying their other games either. All I want is Dreamfall Chapters. T.T

The Longest Journey and Dreamfall are my favorite games-- ever. I own them both, the soundtrack, and the book of concept art. It's depressing that Dreamfall Chapters is being set to the side for so long. But at least it's not being canceled indefinitely.

lol no dreamfall chapters no cash from this dude since takes 5+ years to make less then 24 hours to finish

I absolutely love The Longest Journey, I find it the best game ever (Dreamfall had too little dialogue, funny remarks, and interesting puzzles, and the storyline was less coherent). Ok, I admit, I am an adventure gamer, and indeed adventure is unfortunately not a mainstream computer game category. And that is of course the problem here.

Although I think all those shooting games fit well with the trends of today, still there is apparently room for something like Harry Potter.

The quickest way to get a sequel to TLJ and Dreamfall would probably be make these games a bigger success (after all these years...?). I wonder how many people even know these games. My guess is that a large share of the people who like to read will like TLJ and Dreamfall; after all, they are interactive stories.

Hi guys,
I have played Dreamfall before TLJ 1.... and believe me, or not... I liked the sequel more.... The controls were MUCH easier as I could explore all rooms from all sides.... not like in the first game when the view was very limited (plus the game reminded me of the Journey into the Center of the Earth - not sure about the name as I played it in my language and not in Eng... but you know, Verne's stuff). I do like click games, but Dreamfall was a click game compined with good graphics (the first game's character graphics were terrible), and even a better storyline... so good that I was sooooooooo mad when I saw an ending like this..... I have guessed that Chang would do something to my favorite Zoe (liked her better than April), and I even felt that they are related.... but even though I WAS surprised.... the story with Kian was too short.... we controlled him like 4 times only? And it was very disappointing to see that April didn't solve her relationship with Charlie later in Dreamfall when it was pointed out in the first game.... however.... I didn't like the first game as much as the second.... maybe because of the characters, etc. I really loved Zoe's character.... and the romance was good too.... the videos were really beautiful.... and there WERE funny moments.... And yes, I am disappointed in FUNCOM.... I only played TLJ 1 and 2 last month.... so I can't imagine you guys waiting for soooo long!!! But if FUNCOM reads this.... Please, we are waiting.

Hey, Funcom. I hope you are reading this. I want Dreamfall Chapters and I want to play it on my PC. I am an avid adventure games player and I hate those stupid point and shoot games. Could you please give us Dreamfall Chapters so that we can play it on our PCs... preferably BEFORE all the original voice actors are dead (but by then I'd probably be dead too... heh).
