I think people are ready for another big(million plus) KickStarter again. It's been 6 months since the big ones, the fans wallets have respawned currency(well, hopefully), and Obsidian is a pretty well respected developer among the RPG niche.
Actually OUYA raised $8,596,474 on Aug 09.
Then Reaper Miniatures Bones got $3,429,235 on Aug 26.
And if you focus on videogame "literally", Planetary Annihilation, which ends tommorow, already have $1,874,740 and Homestuck Adventure Game have $1,197,261 and still 21 days to go.
There's still big project on KS. Let's see if another RPG can beat the Wasteland 2 record...
hey, long time you see, Archon !
And remember that Dead State and Shadowrun Online have been succeeded on their funding (yes, not incredibles raising fund like Wasteland 2 or Shadowrun returns, but at least 332 000 $ and 552 000 $). And the studios who work on theses titles are not wellknown as Obsidian.
