Why are you (still) here?

I like to read the occasional thread on here and I’m waiting for more info on the new game

Because nothing beats forums! It’s more focused and old school.

This! It very much resonates with me as well.

This place feels like a dial-up bulletin board system. Stranded somewhere in time and space. And there are friends here, friends that I don’t know but are still my friends. :slight_smile:

The memories! The game, the podcast, the discussions… it was a good time :slight_smile:

They did, or is this some in-joke? I don’t actually hang around much, but I get the email digests, which make me come back every now and then if I see an interesting discussion in them.

In my country there is a saying: "when a Savonian speaks, the responsibility lies with the listener” :grin:
I have Savonian blood, so never take anything I say for granted :slightly_smiling_face:

We’re not talking about Savona in Italy, are we :stuck_out_tongue:

Haha, no :smile:

Why are you still here? In my case it would be better to say: “why am I only coming now?”

Hi Guys, I am a new member of this forum I would like to introduce myself by talking to you about the problem that led me to write in this forum 4 years late! Sorry for the bad English, I have to rely on a translator, have patience!
I consider myself a “sofa player”. I am too lazy to be actively part of a community until the release of “Delores”. On that occasion I had what alcoholics call “the moment of clarity”. I realized that due to my laziness I have lost a lot of good things such as TP’s Kickstarter and everything that came later. “Delores” meant for me the closure of a project that I completely missed despite buying TP at D1. It is not the game that I have missed but the team spirit that has been created through the Kickstarter campaign. For me it was a trauma that generated a profound change in the way I understand video games. I waited about a year searching news about Terrible Toybox but it didn’t, luckily for them they have found a financer (by the way … who is funding Terrible Toybox?). At this point I need to find my redemption and do something to be able to consider myself an active member of this passionate group that revolves around TP. I have devised a way to do this, I hope the members of this forum will like it and maybe start some good discussions. I will open in a few days a new topic titled “Chuck Edmund’s Lost Treasures” in the Fan ART section. See you soon guys! A hug to all the Italian guys who with their presence (unlike how I have done up to now) have shown how strong the Italian community is.

I came for TWP, I stay for the AA discussions (at least once I’ve finished Great Ace Attorney). :wink:
Seriously, though. I’m only an occasional poster/visitor, but I loved Thimbleweed Park and the discussions around it. Even as those eventually died down, I still enjoy the off-topic stuff and everyone’s thoughtful posts. As @Guga said, I prefer forums to social media and this certainly is not a toxic game community. Plus, cat photos. :slight_smile:

Did you try our Italian voiceover? :smiley: https://www.gugames.eu/twp_voice.html

I have not tried it yet, but I will definitely do it! However, I was aware of the work that has been done for the Italian dubbing I think about a year ago I saw a video dubbed in Italian. It was Ransome’s batting contest if I’m not mistaken. I have always had a sort of admiration for people who show that they have an iron dedication to their passions. As I said, a hug to all the Italians who have shown with their presence or their work how strong the Italian community is.

Oh, don’t worry, you are not alone, and there’s a dedicated thread to improve your English:


It sounds like a mystical vision :angel:

Uella, benvenuto! Fa sempre piacere trovare un connazionale! :smiley:
(Hi! Nice to meet you! :smiley: )

This is the only video game I’ve played in any meaningful way in many years. I had fun discussing it here on this board. And so, every few weeks I just like to check back in and see what is happening here. And plus–I just really loved the world of this game and this forum in a way extends my time in that world beyond the main game and the mini game and sort of keeps it alive for me, even if just a small part.
