More well known ? Maybe, but seems they're well known for wrong reasons around the 'net and whether or not it's ambitious, well who knows, they're all a relatively big gamble. I'm not too hopeful on Kickstarter becoming the way mainstream games get funded, given they have publishers and the overall nature of KS.

How does this differ from Double Fine (didn't Schafer start the fire for KS?) or InXile or to a lesser extent Revolution or Jensen (in terms of dollars pulled in, anyway)? It's good to see but not exactly the dawn of a new age or something. Just find this a bit too over dramatic, heh.

Heh, if they have some evil gay guy in the game I can see them getting heat over it. Outrage is fashionable these days, after all.

What on Earth are the Russians doing here ? Or is that some other CIS you're speaking of ? Such an odd thing to demand, but oh well.

I have a sneaking suspicion this will be a non issue for Obsidian. I'm hoping there's a Sie like character though.

Then it's not even a revolution, as it's been done before.

Meh, I guess it was ok. I did chuckle at the 'If you got fencepost errors I feel bad for you son, I got 99 problems but I solved 101'

Hah, usually my friends say 'oh sure we'll play co-op' and then they just burn ahead of me due to them having more free time.

Now Kickstarting Project Empathy - A Next-Gen Modern Party-Based RPG (and we DO mean "party"!) Your party will consist of one thousand characters of every race, gender, religion, sexual preference, height, weight, psychosis, smell, taste and shoe size! I think that'd make easy money - just put it in space with blue aliens.

Eh, not really into this "why not?" approach to things - you end up doing a lot of stuff that's a waste of effort, just because.

I feel alienated if they don't include a passive aggressive character.

Don't really see a pressing need to include one as you can just create an avatar whose gender matches the one you do and there you go. Unless you want people to react to your PC being a transsexual - probably only negative reactions will come, thinking on it. As an aside, I'm not really understanding why you would feel alienated by the lack of this option anyway.

Working over my resume (read : adding more lies) as I'm getting ready to job hunt before they tire of me around here. Crappy skillset too, so maybe going back to school might be an option, heh.

The game doesn't exist as of now, so maybe just relax a tad.

Of course, as testers in these things never really actively test things, likewise with closed ones.

Well, saves them having a separate Kickstarter to fund a QA department.

Well that's good news. Also Monte, that signature image is way too large

Well that was a good laugh, does seem like the usual stuff from BSN.

Well, gotta get out when the going's good.

Well if they did, it'd be good (and easy) PR - get them good words from press and relevant groups. Romances, meh, I'd prefer none - I play my RPGs strictly business for the most part. If they decide an NPC needs to be a homosexual because it'll add depth to him and so on, can't see that being a problem.

Well, am interested to find out more about the guns, heh.

I think that was a joking comment. Itching to play it, but luckily I have work/study stuff to keep me occupied. Also going to finally give Startopia a go.

Well they are putting their money in - I probably should give to that, the trending graph on that is taking a nice dive, heh. Borderlands 2 today!...well ok no, Amazon's getting me it on the 26th or so, meh. I guess I'll have to get a new pen to make this day brighter.

Well, that's unpleasant to deal with. You have my sympathies - hope you make most of however long you have with him.
