Besides Shadowrun and Wasteland 2, this is most awaited kickstarter. Already chipped in $20 myself. Can't wait. And fuck yes turn-based!

One of the games I'm most looking forward. A zombie survival sandbox RPG. Now the waiting game begins until the final version comes out.

Turn based - bah. NO thanks, but I hope they have much success.

It isn't the same as DLC. The more money they raise, the more staff they can hire, the greater amount of content they can add to the game.

I haven't really followed the video game ones particularly closely, but this is how other Kickstarters have been for a while. Those are their stretch goals. They keep people enthused and donating after the project has hit its original goal.
