    antoinef, do any stores in your area sell prepaid credit cards (with Visa or MC logo)? This is an option that works for many people... though I've heard that Germany requires you to be 18+ to purchase them, so I don't know if France does that too (i.e. EU regulation) or if that's just Germany's independent legislation.

    Even if that is the case, perhaps you could give your parents the cash, and convince them to buy you a prepaid card (or just use their credit card)? You could have them create the Kickstarter and Amazon accounts and retain the passwords to it themselves, so they don't have to worry about you going on a Kickstarter spree and can just get this one thing for you (or anything else you're willing to pay them for and they agree to). If you pay up front rather than when the KS ends and your parents are the forgetful sort, you may want to get a payment note from them showing that you already paid so they don't see their credit card bill and go "oh right, that was for you! You need to pay up now!" -- not that they would be doing it maliciously, but I had a friend whose parents were forgetful about finances and would occasionally do that... then they'd be all embarrassed when he'd show them the note signed by them saying he paid up front.

    If you go the prepaid route, I don't know how much the €-to-$ conversion fee will be but a €25 card will definitely get you in at the $15 tier for beta access, and if the fees are low enough (less than 15% or $5US total) you should be able to manage the $25 tier for prototype access.

    ==== GOOGLE TRANSLATE POWERS ACTIVATE / ACTIVER LES POUVOIRS DE GOOGLE TRANSLATE ====

    Ne des magasins dans votre région vendre des cartes de crédit prépayées (avec les logos Visa ou MC)? Il s'agit d'une option qui fonctionne pour beaucoup de gens... mais j'ai entendu dire que l'Allemagne exige que vous soyez 18 + pour les acheter, alors je ne sais pas si la France fait cela aussi (à savoir la réglementation de l'UE) ou si c'est juste une législation indépendante de l'Allemagne.

    Même si c'est le cas, pourriez-vous donner à vos parents l'argent, et les convaincre acheter une carte prépayée pour vous (ou qu'ils utilisent leur carte de crédit)? Ils pourriez avoir les créer les comptes Kickstarter et Amazon et de conserver les mots de passe pour eux-mêmes, ils n'ont pas à se soucier de vous acheter tout le Kickstarter et pouvez acheter cette chose pour vous, ils n'ont pas à se soucier de vous acheter tout à Kickstarter, et seulement acheter cette chose pour vous. Si vous payez à l'avance plutôt que quand le KS se termine et que vos parents sont le type distrait, vous voudrez peut-être d'obtenir un bulletin de versement à partir en leur montrant que vous avez déjà payé de sorte qu'ils ne voient pas leur facture de carte de crédit et vous demander de payer -- pas qu'ils seraient de le faire méchamment, mais j'avais un ami dont les parents étaient oublieux de leurs finances et a essayé de lui demander de payer à nouveau ... alors ils seraient tous embarrassé quand il avait leur montrer la note signée par eux en disant qu'il a payé à l'avance.

    Si vous y aller avec une carte prépayée, je ne sais pas combien le € de frais de conversion de dollars sera mais une carte avec € 25 sera certainement payer pour le niveau de 15 $ pour accès à la beta. Si les redevance sont assez bas (moins de 15% ou totale 5 $), vous devriez être en mesure de se permettre le niveau de 25 $ pour l'accès prototype.

    Why aren't you allowed to buy it in France?
  5. antoinef New Member

    Yes , is the same as in germany but my parents don't like the idea of donate dollard and euros for a projet . In the version 30 dollards , the backers receivetwos betas and two alpha , i just ask you if someone can give me one of these .


    The google translation is very bad ^_^

    I don't think anyone wants to give a beta or a prototype version to you for free, just because your parents won't allow you to buy it.
  7. antoinef New Member

    I'm sure theres some lonely person out there who just wants to be loved and would love to go out on a romantic date with you...

    Oh, thats right... Castle Story... Sadly though, I can't even get the game since my credit card has no money on it and theres no way I could transfer money into it from the country I'm in right now. But either way, unless you MUST have it when it comes out (Like me!) I'm sure someone out there is going to post some sort of competition thread to win a copy of the game or someone really generous and has tons of money gives you a copy? But don't fret (Like I will) if you can't get your hands on Castle Story this time, theres always going to be another chance! But I wish you the best of luck in hopes of getting it! :D

    Tell your parents it's not just a donation, it's more like you're preordering a game (especially since the project is already funded, and we've all seen the trailers and gameplay videos).

    Also, the $30 version is only for two betas, you have to pay $45 if you want two prototypes as well. If you have Paypal, you might be able to offer to pay someone back for half the contribution if they up to the two beta or two prototype package for you... that would address steveadamo's comment about no one wanting to just give you a copy -- I'm sure there's at least a few people who would be willing to help you out as long as they don't have to pay extra out of pocket.

    Sorry about the Google translation -- I was just hoping it might help if you had trouble understanding some part I'd written in English.

    Hey, we were all young. I will toss you an account; though it is still going to be a bit until the prototype is out.

    Some people are lucky.
    I hope they give the opportunity to buy access to the prototype afterwards. I can't use any kind of cards, but if i struggle enough i can use PayPal.
