The game isn't out yet. It's in early development.
When will the game become availble to enter? I was looking for the game download or point of entry.. I have yet to buy a packet...
Paying for a game package now helps fund the development and release of the game in the future. Things are pretty clear when you look at the description of the different packages. For example, the basic $40 pledge says this: "Pledging the Elyrian package will give you a digital copy of the game at Launch, as well as the following rewards*"
Please note specifically the "at launch" phrase. There are various levels of involvement. At Pioneer, you get access to the 2nd Beta test stage (the game is currently pre-alpha). Starting at Bloodline, you get access to Exposition, a 3-month period before the game releases to the main population.
