Stretch goal discussion!

[Messier-31]

On another note, I kinda feel like OE should have droppet an update yesterday (CET). There is less than 3 days left now, and it'll be atleast 9 hours before they go to work again. Then it'll like 2 days and very few hours. I'd had hoped for a big update, that could hype gaming sites, and make the final push abit earlier than that. Let's just hope they know what they're doing, and that they got enough time left.

 

They did say in the comment section that there is a delay. Wednesday for sure, tho.

[TheisEjsing]

Oh, I didn't read that. Still, I stand by my words. ^_^

[ShadySands]

What kind of delay? I saw where they said it takes an enormous amount of time and effort to put together an update but didn't see anything else about it.

 

It doesn't really matter I guess. I was just expecting a 4 day blitz instead of a maybe 3 day one.

 

I'm greedy

Feargus said they were on track for tomorrow (Wednesday) morning Obsidian time

[Sedrefilos]

I think they're gonne show the "stronghold replacement" (ship?) and a stretch goal to 8th companion (someone hinted it in fig comments). And maybe some surprise they didn't mention at all during the campaign? That'll be cool.

 

Fulvano finally got south of skull-face island and past a new island heading even more to the south (probably will die freezing in the wastes of the White that Wends ).

It'll be nice (though extra for the developers) if they add the final destination of Fulvano's Voyage as a hidden one, not shown on campaign as an aextra bonus destination over the ones revealed via backer numbers. That'll be something exciting for us to look forward to!

What are the odds he will "discover" pale elves and boreal dwarves?

 

"Henceforth you will be known as fulvano elves and fulvano dwarves"

Didn't Fulvano die in Pillars?  Thought that was his body you find on the beach.

Not sure if you serious or trolling

 

Summary:

• fate of Fulvano is not known
• we discussed this a lot in this thread
• maybe it was his body in PoE1, but no names were given so it's just a guess
• official wiki says that he is nowhere to be found in PoE1
• in Fig comment section somebody asked about the possibility of meeting Fulvano in PoE2, and brennecke replied vaguely "Maybe if Fulvano is still alive. Is he? Hmm..."
• derp

 

 

EDIT: Found brennecke's post:

Missed all that, sorry.  I just remember finding that diary entry of his bemoaning how he had lost the rest of his notes when he tripped over a rock and had been chased by xaurips before leaving a blood stain at the bottom, so figured I had finally found him.  Thought it was strange they had introduced the Pillars equivalent to Volo only to kill him off in the first game, but figured someone at Obsidian really didn't like Volo at all and so it was some sort of wish fulfillment. 

 

Cool, glad they didn't kill him off then, though the amount of travelling companions that die after meeting him makes me wary of doing so.  Kinda like having Jessica Fletcher come to visit: you know someone's gonna be murdered, just gotta hope it ain't you.

 

Gonna go back over this thread now and find this prior discussion (and anything else I missed).

Also... his name is waaayyyy to close to Vulva for my peace of mind.

What about all that stuff he posted makes you think he isn't dead?  That was blatantly him in Eternity 1.  He even has a piece of "fulvano" loot on him that is not discussed in any of the other journals.  Brenneke's comment if anything was tongue in cheek saying "Isn't he dead?  Hmmm..."

 

Also college professors fail students who site Wiki's as a source for a reason.

Here's the new stretch goal visual aid.

 

I don't think we will se another companion. 5 millions seems way off. The boat looks dope thou, and the other goals looks cool. Also great with the languages, hopefully they can boost backing by a decent amount. Also super happy about the early bird DLC offer. We are going to get it anyways, might aswell add the funds for it to stretch goals.

 

It would be cool to have Edwin, I mean Ydwin, as a companion tho!

Edited February 22, 2017 by TheisEjsing

[JerekKruger]

Oh for Eothas's sake Fulvano, could you make it clear whether or not you're dead already!

 

EDIT: Ydwin eh? I only want him/her if he/she can change his/her gender in a terrible/hilarious magical experiment. I also expect him/her to mutter about how stupid the rest of the party is.

[Leferd]

Point of order. Having read Patrick O'Brian, it's been drilled on to me that a sloop isn't a ship.

 

Carry on.

[evilcat]

Some of streatch goals hit the spot. The ship is cool. More exploration always good.

Languages can help spread the glory of Eaothas.

Ydwin is love Ydwin is life.
