As long as they're treating it like some e-sport that needs 100% balance, or tuning the drops to milk the AH this game will never be truly fun. I've sunk more time into than I care to admit, and have never found 1 useful legendary or set item. I can't help but think that without the RMAH they would be a little more forgiving with the idiot drop rates on those items.
After 2 days with Torchlight 2, my lvl 30 character has more "cool" gear than my 200+ hour witch doctor. |

They're doing this with Kickstarter because they can't get any publishers to fund a game in this style.
Wasteland 2 is using the Unity engine, and they probably saw the progress that had been made with it, and decided to use it too. The little scene they showed off from Wasteland 2 looks fine.
Unity engine added support for Linux a month ago, and one game has already shipped using its Linux support. It's no longer a hypothetical, it has happened.
A lot of strong opinions here, but you guys should read up on this stuff before you start criticizing everything about it. It's not like this is secret info. |

Recently someone asked them about being able to identify all of the items in their inventory in one shot, and someone from Blizzard responded with "We're trying to figure out a way to do this."
Oblivious. |

After playing this for 5 hours today, Diablo 3 is dead, buried, and uninstalled. If you're in the mood for an action RPG, I don't think there is anything better out there.
As a bonus Matt Uleman's music is there in all of it's glory, and really enhances the mood of the game. |

the reviews so far seem to be saying "more of the same."
That's not a bad thing at all. Why else have a sequel if you're going to change every aspect of the game.
I still wish Fallout 3 had been 'more of the same'. |

Wow. Trying to be nice atm so all I can say is wow.
What?
Can't a person not like what the project evolved into?
Or am I supposed to kiss their ass for actually getting something out? (Although still incomplete)
Do whatever you want, I doubt anyone actually cares. If you won't try out a free game based on your own idea of their re-imagining being bad, there really isn't anything more to be said. |

Am I the only one that finds Obsidian using Kickstarter to be a bit repugnant? They're an established developer - they should be going to a publisher and doing it right, not hitting up gamers for money before they've even begun. It's like a millionaire panhandling.
Did you say the same about Inxile and their Wasteland 2 kickstarter? Or Double Fine and their kickstarter? |

You get 3 people that made the Fallout franchise what it is, and yeah, people are going to want to fund them.
On the other hand, what if you got the three people who made "Knights of the Old Republic II", "Alpha Protocol" and "Dungeon Siege III"? Would you want to fund them then?
I haven't played Dungeon Siege III, but I completely enjoyed KOTOR II and Alpha Protocol, so yeah I would. |

It's not like they're some fly-by-night scam artists. They've all got 15+ years experience as professional game developers, and work at a studio that has shipped many games.

| I played up to where you get out of the testing area, and I am very impressed. So far it's like Half Life, but with everything looking great. |

What always makes me /facepalm about every big company complaining about piracy equating to lost sales, is that I'm pretty sure if you added up all their projected numbers that they "should" have been making, it would be some utterly ridiculous amount of money. Times are a bit tough right now, that money simply does not exist.
Oh, and on subject, I'm really happy that these guys made a great game and had it sell well!
Oh I have no doubt about that point. If you added up all the cash from "lost sales" you'd end up with more money than exists in the economy. They'd be more profitable than oil companies. |

I think SWTOR drove home the point for me that I, personally, am just sick and tired of MMOs. Every new one that comes along looks great on the surface, but ends up being just the same game with a new paint job, and slight variations on the exact same theme.
