[Backer Reward Shipment Poll]

I find either option to be quite agreeable. Very much appreciate the fact that you guys gave us a chance to voice our opinions on the matter. Voted #1, because yay physical things!

[Update #69: Pillars of Eternity]

Went over this post, and the new website.

 

I love what I'm seeing thus far. :D

[Update #55: Vertical Slice Update]

I liked what I saw. A lot. Still can't wait for the game. :D

[13 levels is auspicious for the mega dungeon...]

A 13 lvl dungeon is almost a game unto itself, like a Legend of Grimrock within another game...well except isometric and all that other stuff, but you get the idea. )

 

Heh, wasn't the original Diablo 15 levels deep, excluding a few side-levels and the final boss floor?

[PayPal Support is Now Live]

Still waiting for the Playing Card addon on the paypal page!!

The KS is nearly ending and I need dem cards, halp!

 

I'm wondering the same. I've already added a donation for the expansion and physical soundtrack (I'm at the $140,- tier, so I can do this yay ), but I sorta want the card deck.

 

Any word on this?

 

EDIT: Also, Violix, thanks for that message. I'm using a separate e-mail address for my PayPal as well, so I dropped obsidian a quick line concerning correspondence addresses.

[Update #23: Less than 50 Hours to Go! Documentary News, Playing Cards, and New Wallpaper!]

I sort of want to add to my own pledge to get the extras, but I paid through PayPal.

 

Do I just make a donation, or should I just wait 'till it ends and then note that I want additional package pieces?

 

Sorry to re-quote myself like this, but I'd quite like a bit of certainty - does anyone know which I should do? Preferably before the kickstarter ends?

To my knowledge you just up your pledge by the respective amount, wait for the suvey to be sent, let them know which addons you were after.

 

That also works through PayPal?

 

Eh, works for me. I'll look into upping the amount in a bit then.

 

EDIT: Can't believe I didn't say this. Thanks for the response.

 

EDIT EDIT: Pledg'd. Now to wait for the expansion. And for the site to allow donation for the pack of cards. This project is sapping my money, blast it!

[Last minute pledge question.]

* aw shucks * They live in the UK, they just got married, the dude went back to college, she's a gamer chick.

 

I'd have to have a heart of stone *not* to offer a spare copy.

 

Duly noted, but it's still awesome of you to offer. I hadn't even considered it.

 

Incidentally, to our OP, I haven't said this yet either - congratulations on your marriage.

[Last minute pledge question.]

Dude PM me you can have my spare digital D/L as a wedding present.

 

And then some people are just awesome.

 

You, sir, are awesome.

[Last minute pledge question.]

There are far too many helpful people on this forum

 

 

This is a good thing, no?

 

Also, may I compliment you on your excellent taste in avatars?

 

(Yes, I'm a long-standing Pratchett-fanatic.)

 

And to get on-topic, go with the advice here, if you can afford it. Seems like the best option.

[Humor. How much, where and what type?]

My personal view is that humour definitely needs to be a part of this game. Without humour, I find a gaming experience to be severely impacted. Of course, going by the primary yardstick I'm using for this project, Baldur's Gate I and II, the humour there was just right, to me. We had a comic NPC who had his necessary bouts of seriousness, making him not feel out of place yet becoming utterly unforgettable. Thank you Minsc. We also had the occasional quest or NPC that was laugh out loud funny (the guy wanting to commit suicide in BG1, or the Beholder in the Sahuagin (sp?) City in BG2 are good examples here. Finally, there are the items that have a hilarious description or sometimes even amusing impact on gameplay. See Lilalcor, the two-handed sword.

 

Baldur's Gate can, in no way, be described as a rollercoaster ride of comedy and satire, but these humorous moments made the experience come to life for me much more, giving a sometimes much-needed break from the seriousness of the story, and making the world seem like a world that much more.

 

Those are, of course my two cents.

 

Also, hi, I'm new here. Does Obsidian have a 'new guys' topic somewhere?
