I havent heard "Firefox" in forever. Good nostalgia! That's like using foxberry email lol The days of young I reckon.

Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother?

 

What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest.

 

Begone! Lest I draw my nail...

Wow, Kingmaker's backer portal has to be the worst I've had to register yet.

 

Never mind that I feel like I've just given my.ru another valid e-mail address to sell. *sigh*

That would explain all the spam I've been getting lately...

 

But yeah, I had to fight with it for a while to get it to work too.

It's been a while since I've seen a kickstarter that impressed me. Not including Deadire it may have been Hyper Light Drifter...

 

Crowdfunding is great, but it seems the bubble has burst.

Yay! Another HLD fan :D

 

This pleases SonicMage greatly!

Well, sorry that happened to you. I was done with two clicks.

 

It's probably because I'm the only one left that still uses Firefox instead of Chrome. :)

 

 

I'm not quite prepared to hand Google even more personal data than they already have either. (and Firefox is still the superior browser in my book, I honestly don't see why Chrome gets so much hype, marketing?)

Chrome had a super fast javascrip engine at a time when JS exploded in importance and FF started to become massive bloatware and a resource hog. It's popularity isn't unfounded, I just can't be arsed to migrate - a mixture of inertia and no desire to google me up even more.

No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.

The Iron Oath is a game that I hope will surprise me, it feels like it has potential. However, it also looks like it can be done very poorly. I hope they steal take notes from Obsidian and put a lot of effort in the story and the relationship to the protagonist with the characters.

If anyone's interested, here's another isometric RPG inspired by the IE games currently looking for funding on Kickstarter (Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness):

Final Equinox: The Arrival is a science fiction CRPG with turn-based tactical space combat. There’s a pre-alpha demo you can download. $10 gets you a digital copy.  Looks pretty promising.  Big emphasis on interacting with your crew / NPCs through branching dialogue.  I haven't had the chance to try out the demo yet but will soon as I have off work.

Looks cool.  Too bad the demo seems to be Windows only.  I suppose I could try to run it through wine.  The final game will supposedly have Mac and Linux builds.

I tried out the demo for a bit. It starts off with a brief combat w/ a tutorial. Basically it uses an action point system ( different attacks & buffs cost a certain # of points), so it's similar to Fallout 1 & 2 or AoD, in that regard but with spaceships & using astroids for limited cover.

The ship movement is too slow for my liking and the interface is a bit rough, but it runs great. This first combat is a cake wake but could see it being challenging & fun with more units.

I also played the initial dialogue which is mostly fielding background questions to help flesh out your character and determine their initial skills bonuses.  I probably won't play the entire demo as I'd rather not spoil the story.  Anyway, seems worth putting down $10 to me.

 

The funding is not going so well though.

Xenonauts 2 just launched a Kickstarter

 

I don't see how this is good news. When they announced the sequel I figured they were in good enough shape to fund the project, but I guess the original wasn't as successful as I thought.

 

Oh well. Can't be worse than giving money to Paradox.

Backed for the lowest tier that gives the game. I figure I'd buy it anyway when it comes out, so that's a decent discount, and if things go wrong, well, eh... water under the bridge and all that jazz.
