$23 may be a bit high but so far hasn’t seem to have deterred people from backing

Btw, while the RB KS doesn’t mention it, it was revealed awhile back that Guido Henkel (producer of Planescape Torment and lead designer of the Realms of Arkania series) was working on the game as a creative director until earlier this year. He contributed a lot to the lore, worldbuilding, and basic story Unfortunately it seems they couldn’t afford to pay him a salary so he left the project in search of paying gigs. I’m kinda hoping that if the KS is a huge success they could bring him back in some capacity. Seems like a smart guy who has a passion for CRPGs and obviously lots of experience.

Time traveling + rpg + exbioware? Looking forward to this Waylanders thing. Any other rpg with those formation mechanics?

Considering its been 2 months since theres been any KS games worthy of mention, should we consider Kickstarter dead for gaming?

Kickstarter always slows down in the winter, especially around steam sales. I think the bigger problem is that almost all of the AA companies that have used Kickstarter are now owned by publishers.

Kickstarter was successful at filling demand for missing genres (except MMOs). Now there are few genres that apply. I don’t think it will be this way forever though.

Well we still don’t almost ever get C&C / Warcraft style RTS games anymore (besides Planet X3). So there’s still that.

Kickstarter lives! Or at least Godhood by Abbey Games is live now on kickstarter. Abbey Games who brought us Reus and Renowned Explorers are in kickstarter for their upcoming God game, Godhood.

As a tribal god, create your own religion, inspire your tribe’s growth, convert unbelievers and become the greatest god of all.
While channeling the titans of yore, such as Black & White and Populous, Godhood sets out to revive the PC strategy god game genre in it’s own unique way: by allowing you to truly craft your own one-of-a-kind religion.

$23 for an early-bird tier? $29 for normal? That’s way too much.
