What are you playing right now?
I heard good things about Prey and decided to try it out and hated every minute of it, the game isn't bad but i just thought it was repetitive and boring to play plus the story didn't grab so i quit and watched the rest on youtube. Then i went back to Mount and Blade Warband while i wait for Bannerlord which will hopefully be good to scratch that itch.

Next Obsidian Kickstarter
one part of me wants something similar to crpg classics like Wizardry 6,7 and 8 because i really like these types of games or Ultima VII which is one of my favourite games as well. But on the other hand i would welcome some sci/fi themed games as well and tbh it doesn't matter too much for me, what matter is the quality of the game.

What are you playing now?
Currently playing Divinity Original Sin, i've had it since beta and first now playing the full game and i love it, good to see a kickstarter done right and that they delivered what they promised. And after the few hours that are left i will go on to Shovel Knight, i look forward to that one.

Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs
I really liked Amnesia The Dark Descent like most people here and like @ Star Wars i'm kinda worried for the sequel mostly because i hate dev changes in middle of a series and that it might ruin the atmosphere of the original game but that said it does look good from what i've seen so i'm not going to condemn the game before it's out, let's hope for the best.

How often is it necessary to visit the forums?
1-2 times a week, i do the same since there are no point in going on forums more, you will know enough about PE anyway.
-
Anti-Dragon Age 2?
PE opposite from DA, well if wasn't i wouldn't even have thought about pledging so far so good, can't say i liked DAO or DA2 to be honest.
-
If there was only one RPG to be saved in the world I would choose.....
Planescape Torment here too and Fallout 2 as close second.

Favorite Game and Which game do you hope Project Eternity is most like?
My fav and the game i hope it plays like is Torment, no game have blown me away with the story/deep characters like Torment so any inspiration from it can only be a good thing imo and i still play it even today and will for many years to come, second i've also been a long time supporter of D&D combat some may dislike it for being slow but i generally prefer the slower more tactical type of combat old school game had so if PE is anything remotely like it i'm sure i'm going to love it.

Who will be next companions ?/ Your expectations for the next companion
Minsc invites himself to the party through awesomess, let's just say he needs new adventures but for real i would want a Ranger (no party is complete without one) especially godlike ranger.
-
What do you plan to use as your starting character?
Chr1s replied to Rajaat the Warbringer's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Paladin dual wielding greatswords assuming eternity will have something similar to NWN 2 monkey grip feat (who doesn't like that) otherwise probably going to be a melee class of some sort.
- Level cap or no level cap?

Gameplay or Story?
Both are equally important to me, a amazing story with bad gameplay mechanics will always be boring to me since gameplay is such huge part of many games so it has to be well done otherwise i could just be reading a book if i only wanted a good story to follow and a good story is important too since it actually make you care of what you're doing and there' s a certain excitement to push forward to see what happens next in the game. Games like Painkiller without a real story shows that gameplay is just as important and that it becomes more fun if it's well done, a very good game can't afford to really sacrifice either of these things, balance is everything.

Spell Casting Time
I really want timed casting plus the chance to be interrupted and the chance to fail if you're wearing armor or have low intelligence or whatever attribute system we get since i hate games you can only spam powers in, old school feel ftw.
-
Quality or quantity?
Their isn't a clear answer to this but to me both are VERY important for example, a short game with super high quality can make the game a blast to play but you're unlikely to pick it up again and low quality but many game hours make you hate the game and not come back either so imo it's important to find a good balance between high quality and length which isn't the easiest to do with a kickstarter budget but it's possible with care ful planning and knowledge. here's what i like: no or very limited amount of cutscenes (because i prefer gameplay over watching the story and good storytellers don't need the use of cutscenes to succeed and older games like torment/BG are good examples of this, no voiced protagonist which i like mostly because my younger days was filled with these older rpg's and to me no games today come near their storytelling, D&D type combat is another thing i'm a huge supporter of here and at last isometric camera is a must in a old school archetype game.

Is $4M enough?
4 millions is nothing compared to triple A titles but i think we have seen more than enough of triples A that turn out being mediocre or overrated and that budget isn't everything just look at Max Payne 3 (riddled with super long cutscenes and if i wanted to watch it i would have bought a movie instead i want to play dammit and that costs a LOT, story was still average and lots of others), Diablo 3 full of flawed design choices, cutscenes again and Mass Effect 3 same here so the point is PE don't need those cutscenes, let us play instead and cutscenes don't necessarily make the story better, Pricy Voice actors, you can find good ones without having pay for the most well known and engine unity may not be the best or most expensive but it is more than good enough so here Obsidian can save a lot of money sure there are other stuff they an save money on too but this is already long enough.

Which tier did you choose?
Increased to 165$ now and that's final.
-
The Obsidian Order of Eternity wants YOU! part 4
Upped my pledge by 8$ on final day too, phew, dunno a good name though but if anything try berserker of obsidian order since it make sense considering my name.
-
Which tier did you choose?
110$ + 20$, digital version.
-
Do you want Alpha Protocol 2?
Sure do, i would pre order it as soon as i could but that's just wishful thinking atm.
-
Is this game worth getting?
If you get it for under 10$ yes otherwise no, i became bored rather quickly and haven't played in a long time, a few reasons are, clunky combat, camera is wonky imo, somewhat dull characters, too little skills/abilities and too short storyline but hacking monsters is always fun though.

Where is everyone from
