skelleton Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 This is because they can't change the description for each tier once the KS has started. They definitely added the book to the $50,- pledge, if not more, so that's complete rubbish. And this is because Kickstarter doesn't have the notion of add-ons, so it's something they have to handle themselves. Yeah. I fear it will give a lot of error though, keeping track of all personal wishes of 55-60K users. It's not Amazon, but a gamedeveloper. I fear things will get messed up somewhere along the road It shouldnt be a problem if Kickstarter gives them the survey results in a somewhat usable manner. The biggest issue will probably making up the survey, to get the information structured in a way they can use. http://www.skelleton.net
Gyges Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Upped by 70$ to the signed collectors edition at the 250$ (plus shipping of course). Cant believe i thought i would simply stay idly by at 65$, ludicrous. 1

mstark Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Oh. My. God. I'm delirious. Pledge going from $20 to $160. This is the excuse I've been waiting for to get myself the Collectors Edition box. Stupid thing is I'll probably have to pay import tax on it, too, and that's money I could have given to Obsidian I really do wish we'll reach the $3.5kk goal! Will pledges after the kickstarter period, through PayPal, still count towards this goal? "What if a mid-life crisis is just getting halfway through the game and realising you put all your points into the wrong skill tree?"

We are pledging money to them and they give us stuff as gifts. So they should be labeled as gifts. I definitely would like that considering my country's 25% tax rate and insane paper-trail prices. 1
NWN_babaYaga Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 whew... that screenshot blew me away. Been a while since i watched what you devs can realy produce (nwn2) hehe. Amazing design!!!

I thought someone is going to attempt sth like that I was going to give it a try, but decided there will be too many of those anyway.
1varangian Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 The lore is inspiring and the screenshot is just stunning. Can't wait for more now.
cyberarmy Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Ehem... DAT LORE AND SCREENSHOT. /feints Nothing is true, everything is permited.
jbrukardt Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 eek. how has noone submitted this to reddit. The last post about it is 23 days ago and received lackluster response. Lets fix that. A front page reddit post will bring us to 3.5M no problem
Naithin Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 Welp, pledge jumped from $20 to $65 (added expansion and early beta key. I know, I know, but in the end I couldn't help myself). The expansion was a foregone conclusion for me really anyway, beta key I likely could've done without in a story based RPG but as I've said earlier, I do enjoy the beta testing process and besides, want to help out a little more even if I can't afford to go any further (or really even this far, but eh! ) I see us almost certainly making it to Stronghold level of funding, second city? Less certain, but not willing to write it off yet as last few days to a week of a KS typically do enjoy quite a surge of last minute 'Ah fuggit, I'll do it!' pledgers.
GhoulishVisage Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 This is bananas. I'm playing the lotto this weekend, I'll donate 10,000 if I win. 1 When in doubt, blame the elves. I have always hated the word "censorship", I prefer seeing it as just removing content that isn't suitable or is considered offensive

Hassat Hunter Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 It shouldnt be a problem if Kickstarter gives them the survey results in a somewhat usable manner. The biggest issue will probably making up the survey, to get the information structured in a way they can use. Not only making sure the proper orders are there for the proper amount of money, but also the handling that everything is properly shipped or supplied (if digital). It's easier to mass-ship the same CE to a bunch of adresses instead of having each adress have a bunch of modifications. Which *will* surely lead to errros. If shipping companies can ship someone a machinegun when they order a TV, how would a game developer do something like that properly for all 60K users? ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created.
