I pre-ordered Elemental way back...

from Stardock Forums

I initially thought maybe I would be intrested in the beta for fallen enchantress but WoM left a pretty bad taste in my mouth, so I had decided to hold off until the final version was added to my account.  I'm looking forward to it.

I just wanted to ask a couple questions, I would likely already know the answers If I had been following along with beta development, but I havent so...

1. Will I be able to add it steam? or is this just a Stardock only copy?  I'm fine either way just curious.

2.What is the EXACT time of launch IE the very soonest I can download/activate/grab-the-key-from-my-downloads-page/whatever. 

3.Is there an official Launch countdown insanity chat room somewhere? As disappointed as I was with WoM I really enjoyed hanging out on impulse with everybody in the constantly overflowing chat rooms in impulse as the launch lunacy approached critical mass. (RIP impulse... you will be missed)

Steam.

Derek wrote of it being around 1 PM, but I assume that's the US East Coast.

Hopefully, not.  When you get right down it, all other things being equal, it's just a game. A game you and I enjoy, but that's it.

 

EDIT: Actually, a lot of forum users will probably be doing that.  It's a great big world, and differences of opinion are a good thing. :)

Actually, if you are looking for your free copy it will not be on steam.  Go to stardock.com and login in to your account (same e-mail address you used to pre-order) and you should see the beta for fallen enchantress available there.  Once the game is available (supposedly 1pm EST tomorrow), you should be able to get the 1.0 version from this page.

To clarify further, Fallen Enchantress does not use Steamworks so the serial keys are not portable. The only way to get it through your Steam account is to purchase it via Steam, though the functionality would be identical either way (since again, it does not use Steamworks) aside from who you download updates from.
