So did I, but you know what's even rarer? Having that experience in multiplayer. Good experiences are better shared, wouldn't you agree?
I understand the problem from a budget and prioritization standpoint and agree that it's good they're focusing on the single-player experience, but if it were possible to share the same experience with friends, I couldn't call that a step down.
Multiplayer RPGs have been virtually extinct since MMOs took off, so I certainly understand why this question has been coming up about every RPG for the last several years. I do hope multiplayer returns to the genre some day.
I agree, I would love to be able to play such a game with my pen and paper friends I'm now thousands of miles away from.
I didn't know when I backed it that it was going to be single player. However, I want to support a game that's for players. Not the watered down junk we get from todays publishers. It's still a game I want to play and hope one day there will be a kickstart for an MP option. I don't want servers or launchpad, anything of that sort. I want to play TCP/IP with my old table top friends at some point. However, I do want this project to succeed and take off and maybe we can get more games and options backed by players in the future.
