Fledgling Fyora gremcint Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 So having enjoyed Avernum 1 Escape from the Pit during the steam sale I bought the spiderweb bundle. However I see Avernum 3 is not included in the bundle at all, nor is it available on steam at all. Looking into it I see that you can only buy it by buying the 1-6 bundle on Gog. I'm not exactly happy about this, in fact I'm rather disappointed. So what do I do if I don't want to pay for the same games again? do I go ahead with Avernum 4? I know they're standalone but it's frustating to miss out on the story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Avernum 3 remake is going to come out in about a year. Jeff started working on it recently. Welcome to Spiderweb Software. Please leave your sanity at the door. It helps with getting the next game. Zaego 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Right now, the Avernum Saga is listed on GOG at $11.99. I don't remember exactly what Avernum 3 sold for when it was sold by itself, but I think it was $15 or $25. So even if you could buy Avernum 3 by itself now, it would probably be cheaper to buy the bundle. Bear in mind that you're getting the old Avernum 3, though, so it won't look like Avernum: Escape from the Pit, and it may sputter a little on modern computers. As Randomizer said, the re-remake that will look like Avernum: Escape from the Pit is being made now and will be released sometime next year, probably.

Understated Ur-Drakon Earth Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 currently sw's order form says that 1st Avernum trilogy games cost 10 bucks individually and whole package 25 bucks. 12 years ago (when Avernum 4 was newest Avernum game) 1st trilogy games cost 25 bucks indivifually and trilogy cd 45 bucks. today its all digital.

Ineffable Wingbolt Arch-Mage Solberg Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 I remember in the 90's when each game was $45 and hintbooks were $12. Post #721 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchling Cockatrice Status Crow Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 I don't think individual games were ever $45. I think you're remembering the price of one of the compilation CDs with multiple games on them (and likely from after the 90's). The old Avernum games were originally released for $25. Nethergate and BoE were $30 and I think the Exile games were also $25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 They once had a deal where if you bought one of their other games, you could get your choice of BoE or Nethergate for $15. I got Nethergate because I already bought BoE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
