  1. Yeah, I can't see Project Eternity making less than Wasteland 2, considering how it has been progressing faster, although Wasteland 2 is going to be amazing Also current trends are only linear, and take into account how much it is projected to earn based on the rates as they are at any given time. It does not take int account the usual surge at the end of a kickstarter, and it is not counting paypal donations.
  2. Ah, thanks I guess I just missed that for some reason!
  3. I wonder why Obsidian is taking so long with paypal! most kickstarters try to get that up asap . I would surprised if Project Eternity does not reach $3m considering that it is already at nearly $2m with just under 3 weeks to go Also they have not introduced paypal yet, and kickstarters also always get a surge toward the end, so at least $3m is looking likely.
  4. Ahhh, completely forgot about that. It sure is going be awesome, because Space Quest rawked! Ditto, I love Space Quest I also forgot to mention Broken Sword 5: The Serpent's Curse!
  5. Here's my list of games that look worthy of my time in 2013: RPGs: Wasteland 2 Shadowrun Returns and maybe Age of Decadence Underrail Avadon 2 Adventure: SpaceVenture Doublefine Adventure Infamous Adventures Tex Murphy 6 King's Quest Jack Houston and the Necronauts Action: Bioshock Infinite Star Trek Tomb Raider
  6. I also forgot the new Star Trek game, which could very well be a fun action adventure, but who knows. Also, maybe Half-Life 3 for 2013? One can only hope
  7. It does look like Obama is heading for a victory right now. He has been consistently polling ahead of Romney in every swing state, except for North Carolina. Even if the margins have been fairly slim, the fact that those slim margins have been in Obama's favor in nearly every swing state for a long time now, means it is most likely not a fluke. Also, Michigan was one of the major swing states until only a little less than a week ago, when it moved up to safe Obama. This means that come November 4th, Obama only needs to maintain all of his solid states, and win just a few of the swing states, whereas Romney has to somehow win almost every swing state in order to become president, which is highly unlikely. Of course we still have not gotten to the debates, which begin next month, but Obama has more charisma on camera, which will likely help him there. Someone mentioned Obama ignoring the recent flare up between Japan and China, and I would say that it is partially true, but not completely fair. The US is obligated to protect Japan if its territory is military attacked by another country, which is not what has happened here (at least not yet). The US is not obligated to mediate disputes like this, although our military obligations mean that is probably in our interests that things proceed peacefully. Anyway, there is a lot of patriotic fervor over the issue on both sides, and so it would easy for anything he says to be taken and used by people who are being overly emotional, so it is actually a good idea to keep play this low key, and not make any bombastic statements in favor of Japan, as it could actually backfire in a big way. As for foreign policy, Obama has actually had a much different foreign policy than Bush, with his ending of our presence in Iraq, he has just been moving very slowly. Our national debt levels however, have increased very fast under his administration, which is a topic that he will need to address.
  8. I don't think that they character has to have some kind special chosen destiny to justify their ability to save the world (If the game's story even involves saving the world). Is the protagonist save the world because he or she is special? Or is the protagonist special because he or she saves the world? . You could start the game as just a normal person, but somehow through the events of the game, just become powerful enough to be able to stop whatever major threat exists, but I don't think it needs to be some kind of foredestined thing.
  9. I forgot about Last of Us. I really like the Uncharted games, so I'm looking out for that one now I was thinking Dragon Age 3, but it looks like another likely 2014 candidate to me. Also, if I do play that one, it will be on PS3, since I really don't want to put Origin on my system.
  10. I was thinking that there really is a bit of a dirth of RPGs for next year, isn't there? The only ones that op into my mind are Wasteland 2, South Park and Shadowrun Returns, and those could end up being pushed back to 2014. This got me to thinking about if there are any good games for next year. Aside from Wasteland 2, South Park and Shadowrun Returns, I think that the new Tomb Raider could be fun, and also several adventure games like SpaceVenture and Doublefine Adventure. All in all though, 2013 is looking a bit sparse.
  11. I'm going back and forth between Borderlands 2, Torchlight 2, and Time Gentlemen, Please!
  12. I don't care too much as long as the game is good. However, I find it much more interesting if the player character just happens to be caught up in the game's events, rather than having some kind of divinely given destiny. Even in PST, your character wasn't really a 'chosen one' it's just that his actions made the game's events inevitable.
  13. 27 here I'm glad to see that there is a decent age range for this game! I'm also glad to see that there are a lot of people over 25 . My favorite RPG is Planescape: Torment with Fallout at a close second
  14. Michigan USA . Either computer RPGs are especially popular in Europe, or North Americans just don't like voting in polls Considering that the genre originated here, you'd think we would be represented here more .
  15. I would definietely contribute to another Planescape: Torment style RPG!
