looks like its only up on the xbox. my download file is almost 16 gb, on the store its says 8 gb. patch is supposed to be 7.5 gb, which could mean that the digital version already includes the patch.
Yes, just checked it and it's 16gb and on version 1.01.
I don't know if this is the "big" patch already. Oh well, we will see, can't wait to start playing!

Still no answer PS4 pro vs Xbox ? 🙏🏻 I give up on switch due to frame rate

Ohhhh shit my game just got delivered.

Work can't end fast enough!

And to clarify- None of the backer rewards are included with this shipment, correct?

So I know embargo is tomorrow, because of the Day 1 patch. But I wonder if that Day 1 patch will hit with the Midnight EST release on PS4.

Fuck it, I'm getting the PS4 version as well. I hate doing it, but I backed the Kickstarter and chose the Switch version, but I'm really bummed to hear about the 30 frames and other issues (though they should be patched, except the framerate), but screw it, I'm just keeping the Kickstarter one for the collection and pick up the regular boxed copy Friday so I can play it immediately.

What other issues? Something going on with the Switch version?

My PS4 Kickstarter copy arrived at my local post office this morning. Tracking says it will be delivered tomorrow, but it might arrive today as my local postmaster works faster than usps servers can update. I'll be crossing my fingers.

Those that have played it:
I am watching videos and it looks great but the run speed looks kinda sluggish. Is this an issue? Does it feel bad? Good? What are your thoughts on controls?

On their Discord server they are saying that "Backer codes are going out today as quickly as the platforms deliver them " whatever that entails.

While I haven't played it this has been something brought up in a lot of threads. IIRC they actually exactly matched the speed cycle of Alucard in SotN so I'd imagine it feels fine, but I do agree it looks odd at first.

Holy fuck. This is beautiful.

Can confirm, no Steam code yet from kickstarter
Nope. No GOG ones either. 😭

It's more of an animation issue for the run cycle animation than an issue with the overall speed, as Miriam is as fast as any IGAvania protagonist without any of the special movement stuff that you've come to expect in those games towards the end. IGAvanias are certainly slower than most Metroidvanias out there on the whole, but Bloodstained fits in real nicely with its predecessors.

Only played about an hour and a half, and I'm really pleased with both the visual enhancements over the backer demos and how much it turned out that they truncated from those demos, as there are a lot of new elements to enjoy that were not already known. Bats are still terrible, though!

Do we have confirmation on a steam unlock time? Can we expect midnight? Or is this gonna be another weird mid day tomorrow thing?

yeah you guys are right it's definitely more that the animation for running maybe looks like she should be moving faster. The ice-skating effect.

I really hope the codes don't get snagged again. I don't mind if they come midday tomorrow or whatever, but the Curse of the Moon one hurt. I think it was like 8 days late.

Also that timetable doesn't mention US PSN, lol.

That is just the packaging it came with.
I got the $125 tier. The rest of my rewards will come later. Hopefully soon and everyone else as well. I'll get around to playing it tonight or later this week.

Bloody hell, didn't know that.
My copy was just delivered. Looking forward to going home and stabbing some monsters.
