A Kickstarter campaign is now underway for Torment: Tides of Numenera, offering the promised chance to support this single-player RPG that developer inXile entertainment intends to "continue the thematic legacy of the critically acclaimed Planescape: Torment." The announcement explains that inXile is choosing crowd funding again so soon after overwhelming successes of their Wasteland 2 Kickstarter with great purpose, saying they have "chosen to abandon the traditional publisher-developer business model and focus on crowdsourcing for upcoming projects, beginning with Torment." Here's word on the game they are seeking $900K to develop:
Torment: Tides of Numenera will be a single-player role-playing game, distributed DRM-free for Windows (PC), Mac, and Linux. It will be available in English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian, and Spanish. Torment will continue the thematic legacy of the critically acclaimed Planescape: Torment™ by having to face complex and nuanced morality decisions, carefully contemplating deep and reactive choices with consequences that echo throughout the game all the while immersed into a new and strange vision taken from by renowned designer and writer Monte Cook's new tabletop role-playing game, Numenera™.
In Torment: Tides of Numenera, players will have to decide for themselves the answer to the eternal question, what does one life matter? Numenera's Ninth World is a fantastic vision of a world in which massive civilizations continue to rise and fall with only cities, monuments, and artifacts left behind to serve as reminders of their past existence. These reminders have become part of the accumulated detritus of eons and now this assortment of ancient power, called the numenera, is there for the taking. One of these humans has discovered a way to harness the numenera to grow strong, to cheat death, to skip across the face of centuries in a succession of bodies. But he discovers an unexpected side effect: You.
Had to back this. I liked what I saw from the Wasteland 2 gameplay vid they put out so I'm confident they'll do it right. 
Damn, up to six kickstarter games backed now. I'm sorry bank account, I still love you.

I wonder if he reads them, or if it's just for show.
