Hurlshort Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 They are nearing $400k in the first day. I'd say they will get around $1.5 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganrich Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 They are nearing $400k in the first day. I'd say they will get around $1.5 million. I think you may be lowballing there. It's only been running for 4 and a half hours. I expect they will meet their goal by tomorrow. Maybe within 24 hours. Also, these things tend to be front and back heavy. So I expect big numbers toward the end of the campaign as well. Right now it is getting $100k an hour, roughly. The question is how long will that last? I expect it will be comparable to Wasteland 3, and may surpass it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I think they've already hit the day 1 peak, it seems to be slowing quite a bit. I do think they will hit the goal easily within the first couple days, but I think it will slow and the last days pickup will only be a few hundred thousand. Of course, this is all speculation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganrich Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 That's fair, but iirc Europe is a pretty big area for these games when it comes to crowdfunding, and I expect it may pick back up over night as their day progresses. We will see. I think how well they do in the mid-campaign slump depends on stretch goals. Either way, I'm excited to have a month of something to occupy my down time at work.

Orogun01 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Looks so bad it's worse. It feels very soap opera, certainly a lot more polished than E3 but not at the level of other games that have done animation better. BW better get their animation team on shape, the Iron Bull had such a poor rig that his fingers kept bending out of shape on multiple animations. Anyways, I will give those 10 hours a try and then decide if I want to buy or not. I also wonder if you can name your character Richard, I always thought that Richard Ryder was a very unfortunate name. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of people, which funded the original KS, that were expecting an Infinity Engine game will pass this time around. I'm still of an opinion that Obsidian bait n' switched with the original KS.

I'm still of an opinion that Obsidian bait n' switched with the original KS. I understand that, but then again... A lot of new people picked the game up on release and enjoyed it. Many of those people weren't beholden to preconceptions about the IE games. They could fill that void. I hedged my bets on how good the first game would be, and was content. Not ecstatic, but content. The White March content was great, though. As an avid fan of the IE games, I'm more than willing to fund this. As they aren't starting from scratch again, I expect a better experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcador Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Think I'll get that after it's released. Why has elegance found so little following?

Hurlshort Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 The Mass Effect trailer makes me think the game will be a lot like the first 3, and I'm happy with that. I have no issues with space operas. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
213374U Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 They are nearing $400k in the first day. I'd say they will get around $1.5 million. Yeah. Meanwhile the much more interesting Apocalypse Now RPG KS is at just about 80k. Bah. I backed PoE, but found it so underwhelming that didn't finish it and never came back. Gonna pass on this one. Best of luck to Obs, ofc. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadySands Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) I'm also disappointed with how little the Apocalypse Now RPG is pulling in I did back PoE2, which is almost 60% funded already, but only for about half of what I backed PoE for and half of that was for the hoodie Edited January 27, 2017 by ShadySands Free games updated 3/4/21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blodhemn Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 The 2020 delivery date is off putting, as well as the vagueness of gameplay. It just seems a bit ridiculous to ask for payment when there's been absolutely no work done on the game as of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was Project Eternity's backer trend. I should add that the current pace for PoE2 is considerably slower than the original campaign -both in pledged $$ and the number of backers. The current $$ raised in FIG is inflated by the nebulous "FIG FUNDS." 1 "Things are funny...are comedic, because they mix the real with the absurd." - Buzz Aldrin."P-O-T-A-T-O-E" - Dan Quayle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oner Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 That's fair, but iirc Europe is a pretty big area for these games when it comes to crowdfunding, and I expect it may pick back up over night as their day progresses. Plus it's the end of the month. I would think there's going to be a bump in pledges once people get their wages. 1 Giveaway list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DgyQFpOJvyNASt8A12ipyV_iwpLXg_yltGG5mffvSwo/edit?usp=sharing What is glass but tortured sand?Never forget!

Ganrich Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) I'm just really curious to see the stretch goalsMe too. Which is why I'm admittedly overeager for it to hit it's goal asap. At its current pace I expect it will be funded in about 10-12 hours. Edit: then it goes and jumps like 70k in 25-30 mins to 850k. If Europe pulls some numbers now that they are waking up we might see some stretch goals today. Edited January 27, 2017 by Ganrich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoraptor Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I'll back it, at roughly the level I did P(o)E. I found PoE to be just whelming- neither over nor under- but I'd hope for PoE2 to be the BG2 to the equally plain old whelming BG1. And since there isn't really anything much interesting in the tiers it will be standard GOG key plus minor assorted extras again. I'd hope most of the funding for Deadfire comes from profits of PoE anyway, with any crowdfunding being icing on top. Doubt they'll get anything approaching PoE numbers since it's Fig and the crowdfunding craze has largely subsided but I'd be happy to be wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadySands Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 At 900k now so I don't doubt it'll be funded when I wake up. I almost feel bad for backing it for so much less this time.
