[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	Picked it up on Steam for $29. I loved the game and would recommend it to anyone who digs horror rpg stuff, although I'd suggest waiting for a $20 price. The gameplay is a little jiggy, clearly designed for console controllers, but a lot of good stuff, fun dialog and a decent plot to boot. The Steam version currently ships with the two dlc episodes as well, although I haven't played those. I'd love a new Cthulhu based rpg with decent backing. -----signature----- I radiate more heat than light.

	I liked that the story had some ambition, and the few glimpses you get of the completely open world the game was originally going to be are pretty grand. A game where you just mosey around town interacting with Twin Peaks-inspired oddballs would be a lot of fun. The second DLC has some very inventive elements and moments that do a lot to break up the monotony of the gameplay. -----signature----- "See that the men are thoroughly insulated, for we shall encounter extreme cold." - Dr. Zarkov
