Default Re: When?

Just a little update:
I met the Manual deadline, and turned in the raw text on 11/13/14.
That is a big step towards completion. The gold date is coming soon.

You should note I'm from the age where games came with multiple manuals (Starfleet 1), cloth maps (ultima 3/4), and other bits of fluff (sometimes literally, HHGTTG!).

The manual is long, detailed, and fun.

I contend that it is possible to learn at least 50% of what you've got to do in about 10 minutes (meaning you can jump right in and start shooting and looting). But that other 50% is huge and full of details. A lot of that is covered in the manual, but some juicy bits are left for you to discover.
