Think it'll take each new file to load at 100% or if they'll come up one by one until 100%? If it's one per 100%, this'll be awhile. lol

Judging from how many empty file slots there are, and that we only have one file at 20% I'd say it's probably one every 100% lol

This kind of reminds me of the good old Dead Space 2 site viral marketing during which the site would enter a new "phase" every couple months, and reveal new content. Still my most hyped game of all time that thing Big Grin

Also my guess. One file will take 6-7 days, so we have 7 weeks of waiting ahead of us. Big Grin

6 days and 6 hours to be exact, so we'll get the next one on next monday. (:

Hey, checked out those new Chinese letters yet?

Well, giving it a quick glance the only new one is "工具" which means "tools".

Putting that together with "Out", and "Right row", I'd say the purpose of these Chinese characters is currently most likely to be of a computer interface.

Can someone please confirm the PC version?
I fear they go strange like TCR with the Rapture, what's only for PS4.

FG's Super Secret Project is my most expected game, and I really hope they don't go the same way like TCR with it. When they now stopped making games for PC, I'll never be happy.

Well, if they divide the eight evenly over the 100% and count the first as the one we would have gotten at 12.5% then the second will be at 25%.

Tbh, if they all have a short video attached I wouldn't mind waiting several days between them. How long this part of their awareness build up lasts should be proportional to the production costs and we're yet to see just how much has gone into the current stage.
