Another guy who made an account just for this. I donated to Tim Schafer's project for one major reason: because he wanted to make a game like they used to make, a type of game publishers think can't sell. That is the only type of game I would be willing to fund for Obsidian. You offer to make something niche, and old school, you have my support. As I've seen mentioned on other forums, there are lots of "old school" RPGs. Games like Wizardy, Bards Tale, and Might and Magic. Games like Ultima. Games like Daggerfall, Eye of the Beholder, and Ultima Underworld. Games like Fallout, Fallout 2, and Arcanum. Games like Baldur's Gate, Planescape, Ice Wind Dale. What ever "old school" type RPG you want to make is up to you, but please give me a game that the publishers won't. Please don't "streamline". Please don't "evolve" by making a game that is simple, and that holds your hand. If I want a game like that, I can currently get that from most of the RPGs the publishers are willing to put out. I don't want Planescape 2, or anything that would require a license. I know that put's me in a minority, but please don't spend money on that. Just put whatever money you raise into the game. Instead I want something "like" Planescape. A project where you guys just go wild, without worrying about limits. Create whatever world you want, and let your writers put in whatever depth they want, without worrying about alienating the audience. so in conclusion, I'd love to Kickstart an Obsidian RPG, but only if its an RPG experience that used be made, but isn't being made now. I mean no offense, but I don't want a Mass Effect, a Skyrim, a Kingdoms of Amalur, a Dragon age 2, and yes, I don't want an Dungeon Seige 3 or an Alpha Protocol. I can get those games or those kind of games right now. I want an experience that the publishers won't give us right now. Give me a promise to deliver something like that, and I WILL help fund it.
