Oh, and there will be paypal. Check the FAQ at the bottom of the KS. They don't set it up until the project is funded, though. (Because Paypal doesn't like these "it only gets paid if the project makes it" shenanigans. So by waiting until they know they are funded, they avoid Paypal's handwringing.)

I always thought it was because companies didn't want to take a chance that the KS goal wouldn't be reached from cannabalizing funding. But your explanation makes a lot of sense too

You do realize that they're not letting every type of pocket knife on planes, right? "Small knives with non-locking blades smaller than 2.36 inches and less than 1/2 inch in width." A box cutter is a shitload sharper than any pocket knife of that specification will ever be.

A much more detailed explanation why they are doing this now rather than waiting for wasteland 2 to finish was done in a wasteland 2 update.

I'm also kind of hoping they're in contact with Obsidian on the tech side (considering Obsidian/Avellone is consulting on Wasteland 2, it's not far-fetched). Wasteland 2, Torment and Project Eternity are all being built on Unity and have obvious similarities, so exchanging knowledge could benefit all of them.

Just out of curiosity, Sho, how much did you donate to Dreamfall? (It's just a question, feel free to ignore or tell me to mind my own damn business. )

Creston

I'll shoot you a mail, don't like to talk numbers in public.

Sho wrote on Mar 6, 2013, 15:46:
Torment is my seventh Kickstarter and my second-highest pledge so far (the money I threw at Dreamfall Chapters was far in excess of this one; Dreamfall is still the only video game that ever made me cry).

From a friend: "Fun fact: This game was funded in less time than it takes to play through a Call of Duty game!"

Aaaaaand: funded! Next stop: 2 million.

Holy shit 901 to 907 - what are they doing over there?!

Being an utter tit, I only now just realized that the first picture is a video.

LOL at that kid. "I just love it, Brian! You just say 'there's kickbacks! Deal with it!'"
HAHAHAHAHAHA. Fucking fantastic. Fuck publishers.

"Don't you just fire them when they're done?!"

Sho wrote on Mar 6, 2013, 14:14:
I wonder if Chris Avellone will be a stretch goal ... they had him as one on Wasteland 2 I think, and the FAQ teases with "planned Stretch Goals include adding more writing talent (including some names you may find familiar)".

Maybe Chris should put "Kickstarter stretch goal" on his card, if true?

My Kickstarter-total is getting ridiculous with close to 10 backed games, but no way am I skipping this one.

Meh, those are just Star Wars logos that were cool before and will remain cool (as far as nerdy tats go). Not like they tattooed "SWTOR IS GOTY OF ALL TIME WOO BIOWARE!!!" underneath...

I would pay good money to see someone put that in ink on their body...
