Post limit reached. Since this appears to remain a popular topic, and in an effort to keep it a bit centralized, a new thread for this discussion will be created.

The Kickstarter may be over, but the Obsidian Order of Eternity lives on in Part 5. From the previous thread: Hello everybody, among the fine folks in the kickstarter comments we discussed a possibility to help Obsidian increase the funding of the game a little bit. We actually talked about an idea that showed up earlier on Kickstarter during the funding of the adventure game Leisure Suite Larry and became a tradition for adventure kickstarters (Want the whole story? Check this). We think this a great idea and we know, Obsidian fans are some of the most passionate gamers in the world. So we decided to start THE OBSIDIAN ORDER OF ETERNITY. How do I become a member? Actually, it's quite simple: Upgrade your pledge by 8 $ and you're in. Yes, it's really that simple. You don't have to pass a test, you don't have to choose a specific tier. The Obsidian Order is open to everyone as long as s/he adds this small fee of 8 $. If you've done so simply expand your Kickstarter-Username with "- Obsidian Order" and start commenting on Kickstarter. Proudly demonstrate your membership to this very special order of the most devoted Obsidian fans and help spreading the word about our movement among all backers of Project Eternity! Why exactly 8 $? Because 8 stands for Eternity. What do you get in return? The feeling of being a special fan amongst some already extraordinary people. Yes, it's a matter of fandom, passion and love. There is no physical or digital reward in it. Don't feel impelled to do so, this is just our way to demonstrate our love for that kind of CRPGs. Some additional words Backers of the 10.000 $ tier who are technically inable to increase their pledge are honorary members from the beginning, because they've already beaten the system. You guys really got it. So, no reason to feel sad, Notch. So now, who stands with us? Farudan, Caretaker of the Obsidian Order http://northharbour....der-of-eternity

Post limit. We'll continue with a Part 5.

I've found up until about clvl8-12, most of the time I'd find pistols, any class, from chests or drops. Occasionally a sniper, AR, or SMG, but mostly pistols. Based on comments in forums, I think for some reason the game just favors them until higher levels. ... eg, you're pretty unlikely to get a rocket launcher early on. My Zero didn't get a single non-quest-reward sniper rifle until past clvl9. That said, it is somewhat random so you may have a game/chr. where you'll find less pistols and more of the other things, even in the starter area. And even at higher clvls, pistols seem to be fairly common, while other things tend to go in sporadic spurts (lately all hubby and I get are rocket launchers, seems like).

If it was within their time, budget and capability to include it, I'd have no objection. That said, I kinda doubt it will be. One can always record your game session and then edit out all the pause/commanding of the battles. More user-work and not quite the same I know, but better than nothing.

I am going to be crunching video for a long long time ..... Forums under a bit o' strain again I see. Almost 1200 users online right now. Congrats Obsidian. It was a glorious Kickstarter.

Headphones would blow my eardrums. Speakers it's less painful. Lucky for me it's only 6pm.

I wish I could, and I've been tempted, but I just can't justify it. $500 has to be my tops. Darn house mortgage. If I had 10K that's what I would have been doing.

"Woooo!"

Every time they group-sing the mic breaks. Darnit. I wanted a vid of the whole thing. I'm not normally a party-person but that's definitely a much cooler office party then I've ever been a part of.

Maybe he's just really tired from the late game last night.

I think the "degree rotation" isn't completely set in stone yet. One reason for that angle in the screenshot was for the perspective/inclusion of the giant statues/grand objects. They're still experimenting a bit I believe, so it might change in the future. Then again, it might not.

4 million...absolute awesome sauce. I bet they are all over the moon.

I know this is meant in a spirit of fun, but .... don't really see this one being very productive.

I need to disconnect my car alarm, that I never use. Sucks my battery or something. I seem to go through a lot of car batteries. eg, my car won't start. Stupid car.

The chat scroll speed is like lightning. Maybe if they keep on drinking, we'll get more dancing. Needs more drunken dancing.

Days like today are when I need two monitors so I can see more stuff at once....(forums, Obs's streams, chat windows).

On the one hand, I don't want all of this to end. On the other hand, when it's over I may get a lot more done, again.

I may record parts but 6+ hours is a lot of HDD space and my spare drive is already stuffed from the D&D session. Haven't had time to crunch it down yet.

...store run later, because I need celebration supplies.

I think spinach is supposed to be fairly high in protein, at least certain varieties. Some protein from brown rice, peas/chick peas. Tofu. If wheat gluten isn't an issue, Seitan, which you can buy or try making yourself. Can she eat egg-whites at all, or is that off limits? You can also buy vegie-based protein powders to mix into smoothies or something, but I don't know enough about those to recommend any.

I tend to be in agreement. I also think that, for the moment, any specific concerns re: the OOoE should probably be left to the official sticky thread up top.

They had about one hour of set-up and then played for about 6.5 hours. So after midnight, PST.

As late as they played, I have a feeling it won't be up until ... later. In the meantime...

Josh is a very animated DM. I think it's charming. I'm not into this type of gaming myself, but it's been great fun watching them play and enjoy themselves.
