Are the majority of backers just using the kickstarter chat thread? I kinda wondered why there aren't as many on the forums. A lot of us are on Discord too Some folks who don't have accounts here or post as guests are quite active on the Discord, haha.

Digital 60$ special backer content. I chose GOG, because DRM-Free. Only thing i am going to miss (paraphernalia aside, i love accessories and i collect some from anime), is the map. Strategy booklet check, soundtrack check (i love game extras and goodies)... Now, if only everybody could get a digital MAP as well...

I chose GOG, because DRM-Free. I was absolutely thrilled when Iga and his team announced that they would make Bloodstained available on GOG at launch. I wish more new titles would be released on that platform. GOG is doing relatively fine, with newer releases. Problem is, lots of developers, publishers, or copyright holders, hate and fear DRM-Free. They are obsessed with a phobia that this specific feature (DRM-Free) will result into: their games being pirated more, them losing sales numbers, or they might need more time and workload to offer updates/fixes, especially in time frame. For all the baseless downright adversity GOG earns, though, it does a damn fine job, given the circumstances. Some of those who do in fact partner with GOG, sometimes do hit both GOG as a business and customers as entities with under the belt hits, such as dumping a game there never to update/fix it, offer patches much later or sometimes never at all, refuse to release expansions, newer titles or other series (especially the more modern ones) in their log, etc. This resulted into some compromises from their part, so as GOG could stay in business and relative, as a service... Like being forced to accept regional pricing against one of its ex core tenets and stuff like that... But they differ from other services, in that they actually care for their playerbase in many ways, from offering free wallet credits to balance out the aforementioned compromise for example, to implementing a feature in their services as per popular voicing, to watching votes on highly demanded games and try to get a license for them, first. I believe IGA + GOG = Best thing ever happened. Now with Galaxy too, that optional client of theirs, nobody will miss anything. Those who can't live without achievements, cloud saves, auto-updates and socializing and those who want to play their game old style without any of that fuss, will both get the best out of it!

I know I probably said this before somewhere, but I wonder if I should get the drm free version just for posterity.

Time 4 Tea @ikai neffGOG ftw. If anything would be hacked on my accounts or computer, I still have my GoG game. No need for stupid online activity to play it either. But yeah, I see the flipside. Its a sad truth. I took GoG immediatly, it was my first choice.

Wow, there's a big percentage of 500s around here.
Still kinda wish I had went for Runic Forging. It's probably best I didn't because of medical expenses that came etc, but man

It's probably best I didn't because of medical expenses that came etc, but man Who could resist the fold out map . I'm very curious to see what the special Kickstarter section with "boss-Iga" looks like. As a side note, I think it was a great idea to leave the Kickstarter tiers open this long. I had wanted to back Shantae Half Genie Hero but missed the boat and if they had done the same as Iga and co. I would have gladly given the funds.

The section with boss iga?? If I recall correctly wasn't the Kickstarter edition supposed to have an exclusive area with a boss-Iga creature. I'll see if I can find the picture they made for it. If I'm wrong on any of this, please feel free to correct me...

I got the 150 dollar version, mainly for the hardcover art book and old-school strategy guide. At some point or another, I put in extra to get a physical vita release, but I am thinking about switching that vita physical to a switch physical since I just got one not too long ago.

Time 4 Tea purifyweirdshard IGA and Swordwhip only from second tier ($60) and up. That means, no exclusive things from the old $5 and the current $28 (digital game only). So if we combine a $60, with a $28, only one of those games will have the exclusive IGA + Swordwhip. However, this can change (!?) and the prequel is included in tiers $28 and up!This is why I got an additional $60, just to get the exclusive stuff for my PS VITA. If its a password or a code which can be used on any kind of version of the game, then I see less point in getting another $60 and just go digital only for $28. Details like that can make people feel disencouraged if promises are "faded" but still true, if you know what I mean.

That's all true, but to be clear in case someone reads this and doesn't know, Alchemist's Treasure (+ digital copy) is $125 and includes one physical + one digital with both having the backer content.
You could just do two 60s intsead, but you'd be missing all of the extra stuff that the $100/125 tier includes.

I did the $300 Slacker Backer through Fangamer. I would have done a much higher tier had I known about Bloodstained when the actual kickstarter first launched, but beggers can't be choosers. I've contemplated upgrading to the $500 tier, but getting a giant ass map just doesn't seem worth $200. Though I could of course change my mind. Perhaps if someone were to coerce me otherwise. But that's neither here nor there.

I ended up at the $150 tier for the soundtrack, artbook and the special slipcase/art and in-game content....buuut I got a bonus a while back and have really been meaning to go into my slacker backer and upgrade to the $300 tier because I want the autographs. Once in a lifetime and all that.
