    I've updated my pledge from 35 to 70, it's all I can do right know I hope we'll reach that 3.5 mark !!

    What I would love from a pet (and yes I would be upgrading my pledge to 50$ to get pet) - some kind of very small dragon - elementals is good idea - hunting eagle - but I'd like to see some classical pets (cats, dogs) as well as exotic ones.

    Resting for me is just waste of time, it kills flow of the game, I know that it's realistic etc, etc but it's boring. And since when games have been realistic ? You can go away from computer for 8hours and imagine that your party is sleeping or eating. I think cool down + mana system could be really tactical and fun. Just make it right for example really long cool down periods, I've used uber powerful spell in one battle so you can't use it for next 2-4 battles and have to rely on less powerful but useful spells.

    I hate Vanacian system....I know that many players don't like mana or cool down system but mana+cooldown is nice and easy way to do this and yes it can be very tactical contrary to general belief. Take DA:O on highest difficulty cool down + mana was very important and you had to choose spells carefully to survive harder fights. Vanacian system is all about load/reload until you find working combination for particular combat or choosing the most versatile spells which work in majority of situations and in both cases it is very boring.

    Yeah but it is kind of hard to get coverage in European countries as English speaking players usually use international gaming sites like IGN or Gamespot and non-English speaking players won't be able to get enough information (and they usually do not use Amazon). Paypal would be handy for that, but I think the more money the better for a game = better sales after release = big chance for Obsidian to get some kind of independence. But to get more money stretch goals must be from this point on more than new races etc, Look how Wasteland 2 picked up steam after some updates http://www.kicktraq.com/projects/inxile/wasteland-2/#chart-daily

    I think stretch goals so far were cool but nothing that would justify surge of new backers. 2.2 is set to be broken in 3-4 days, I think bigger updates about story, some concept art, info about some characters (of course without revealing any important story specifics) or something that would really encourage new backers or existing backers to give more money, because it has been known for few days that 2.2 will be reached soon.

    As long as story is epic I don't care

    I'm very pleased that traditional races are in. I would like PE to be ultimate RPG and to achieve this it must have elves, dwarves and dragons. Also this discussion is kind of pointless as it well known that Elves and Dwarves will be in the game, along with other races. You don't like elves and dwarves I'm sure you will be able to try "new" races. There is something for everybody so what's the problem ?

    If Bilbo Baggins made the journey why some bored peasant can't ?

    I was against but being hardcore Warhammer player I must say why not. It works in Warhammer world that humans have some kind of gunpowder weapons (handguns, cannons, steam tanks) so do Dwarves. It works in Tolkien-esque setting. Also there are sub races as well take Elves there are High Elves - pure, superhuman, noble saviours, but also arrogant, in love with politics and intrigue Dark Elves - evil, torture and pleasure loving, making pacts with demons and hating everyone Wood Elves - wild, mystical, sometimes cruel , distrusting everyone but usually in the end taking good side. I think that gunpowder can coexist with magic and sword if did right.

    I really loved origins companions were fine, some of the side quests were amazing, spell and combat mechanics really cool, what I didn't like was main plot, "Yeah I'm big, chosen mother*****r against demon horde and my job is to save the world" I completed second DA and even tried to beat once again but got bored, too little magic items, too little locations and once again you start as a peasant to become hero. From companions I only liked Isabela rest of them were horrible. Actually story was quite good, but still in 3 we will have another become a hero story and I hate how bad story wise each parts are tied.

    In fact I love "Thief" games but MGS is totally different animal, plot is twisted but epic, characters are awesome, boss fights memorable
  14. Virgil
    Maybe but I own both a PC and Ps3 (although I've been only PC gamer for years) and taking side is childish. There are awesome games on consoles and on PCs, and many of them are complex, deep experiences but some people like to behave like only one way is the right way.

    No, I think that firearms somehow don't work well in fantasy setting.
