Osvir Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Perhaps. Harebrained Schemes, especially after the release of their praised Dragonfall, are now doing very well over at Kickstarter. I can understand companies wanting to milk that particular cow; it's a good way to fund indie gaming and to engage with the player fans. Just as long as they don't start trying to milk the bull... But... if I recall correctly... Harebrained Schemes pretty much said "Hong Kong is coming out, but there's tons of stuff we want to add to it, which is why we are here at Kickstarter". Sooo... rethorically speaking... are they milking it, or using it to improve their product? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadySands Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 They're Larianing I see it as a win win because they get a bigger budget and we get more features and content and the lower tiers are cheaper than retail 1 Free games updated 3/4/21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManifestedISO Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 So, when directly asked during the Pillars of Eternity Q&A panel on PAX South 2015 whether they have additional ideas for Kickstarter, Obsidian pretty much confirmed with a resounding YES. Not that surprising, and certainly leaves me hopeful that something may be announced after Eternity's release. I'm just reading an article where Feargus says Obsidian will probably maybe likely go to Kickstarter for a sequel to Eternity. I get the sense a new IP will not be crowd-funded before Eternity 2. ""I think so, I think that's what we'll do," he said. "It's not 100 percent. The reason is because first we didn't want to do it until [Pillars of Eternity] came out. The second thing is that the Kickstarter stuff is kind of up and down here and there. But the Shadowrun guys look like they're pretty successful, they're like one and a half or two million. I know if we put exploding kittens in it we could make billions. "I think it might be a good time again for a Kickstarter, so we're talking about it." 2 All Stop. On Screen.

cb.spike Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hm, so no new IP? I probably won´t be backer then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flouride Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hm, so no new IP? I probably won´t be backer then. And where exactly did they say that? They might do both new IP and PoE 2. Or if PoE 2 sells well they might have enough capital to fund one game on their own. Hate the living, love the dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vizera Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) Would love to see an rpg in a completly new setting, something that has never been done before. Just about every kind of "take setting X and add Y" has already been done, but alot of movie themes have not gotten the rpg treatment yet so it would not even have to be completly original. For example, a role playing game where you play "the thing" and spend your time eating people then masquerading as them while chatting up their shrinking pool of fellow survivors could be fun. Or better yet, just something completly new. Edited February 6, 2015 by Vizera 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have the rights to either. And I doubt a kickstarter budget would be enough for them either. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

Nimos Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Wuxia RPG. Please let it be a Wuxia RPG. If BioWare won't do Jade Empire 2, then let Obsidian fill the void and make a Wuxia RPG, except better, because they're Obsidian. +1 Please do something like this.
