Isn't Vogel the guy who builds 2D Ultimas like Queen's Wish?

What's this Queen's Domain thing anyway?

Are you just clicking random "buy" buttons now Jonesy??

I am also confused!

Vogel made a game a while back called "Queen's Wish." I like the idea of supporting him. I have this dream that when I "retire" I am going to play all these games that require some focus. Like in 15 years, man, I'm on it. Vogel also had a Kickstarter for his next game that I pledged for no real reason, just because. To support him.

Well, I saw that Queen's Domain was out. And this was honestly my thought process:

1) Wow, Queen's Domain must be the sequel to Queen's Wish!
2) Wow, this must be the game that Vogel had for his Kickstarter! I should get a copy through KS, right?

Only then did I realize that, no, the games have nothing to do with one another. But I bought Queen's Domain anyway.

What I did not realize, then, was that Queen's Domain is a King's Field-like game. The names being close was a clue.

I was playing Queen's Domain, judging it on its own merits and then got sad that you couldn't save, so I put in a refund request. But thinking it over, it's only eighteen bucks. Whoever is making this game had a vision and it's certainly fine. So you can't save, who cares. I just canceled my refund request. But that made me realize something else....

I put in the refund request at 12:30AM on Monday. It's now 36 hours later and Valve hadn't gotten to the request, so I was able to cancel it. I thought they used to process those faster. I don't refund games that often and in this case I am glad they didn't get to it, but still. I wonder what is going on here or if my memory is bad.

(Reads the above) yeah my memory is probably bad.

Anyway. If you liked King's Field for the original Playstation, this is inspired by it, and it's fine. (Queen's Domain, I mean.) I'm just alt-tabbing away when I need to take a break.
