Enhance the whole game?

[gozolo]

Dear all, just wondering whether "ENHANCE THE WHOLE GAME" is going to be implemented.

 

According to the kickstarter the goal 4 mil isnt reached.

 

According to gamespot the goal 4.3 mil was reached http://www.gamespot.com/news/project-eternity-closes-with-43-million-6401005

 

Thank you!

The stretch goals also count the Paypal money so yes, every stretch goal, including the 4mil "enhance the whole game" one, have been hit.

It's great then. I was upset, because I thought that Obsidian missed mere $13k to reach the ultimate goal.

To be fair, I think you are reading that a bit over literally - I'm fairly sure they stated that any money between £3million and £4million would go into enhancing anyway, which isn't really anything specific -  it's not like they would use that money in any way *not* enhancing the game.  A scenario where they made $3999999 and go "sorry about that, we just can't use that $999999 for enhancing the game, I guess we can't use it at all" would be a bit bizarre.

The specific things mentioned in the 4m stretch goal might not have been put in though. Live Orchestra, dev in game commentary, making Chris play Arcanum. The live orchestra music was the big one for me, I'm looking forward to some quality music in PE.

It's a good thing that they reached the $4M stretch goal or they might not have enhanced the whole game.

Before that, they were going with a reanimated orchestra, with the conductor being a Necromancer.

Pretty certain they said in an interview that they wouldn't be able to add any extra content after 3.5million and everything after that would just be spent on polish. So yeah, don't take stretch goals so literally.

Nonsense. Stretch goals are documented statements of direction, so they should be taken literally.

Jokes aside, they were probably gonna just have some musicians create some music on the computer as opposed to actually recording music being played at a studio or something. So there would be a difference in quality.

Yeah, I wasn't trying to mock you or make a point or anything. Just spreadin' the humor. 8P
