I think one thing to bare in mind regarding their previous efforts is, this is the first game they have made where they havent been rushed to release it or leaned on to cut stuff by publishers.

Kotor2 was rushed out by the publisher because of how well the first game did, and Sega kneecaped Alpha Protocal. Lets see what they can do without these issues.

I have one but I really don't want to bother with all the digital stuff. So I'm just gonna wait till this hits the store.

The project has reached $1,017,483 in less then 24 hours and will easily be funded. Personally i hope the final figure is more in the region of 4 -5 million.

Almost there, fuck yes, I really hope Obsidian delivers, I'm really happy about this, PS:T and BG series are incredible games that every person should play.

Not just every gamer, every living person.

Also, relevant



Damn, I'm actually a bit emotional about this LOL, just loved those games so much

I really hope they add more digital options. I want to give them more money but i dont fancy an international shipment of something being involved.

No concept art.
No gameplay videos.
Entirely new IP, history and lore with no public QC.

I was a part of that first $1,000,000 and proud!

Kickstarter sees it trending towards as much as 13 million by the end - that would be swell, but it's a tad unrealistic, I'm afraid. I'm hoping for a few million, though.

I think they didn't expect this fast of a funding, no new features at certain marks promised. Just the diffuse ones of more content. Oh well I at least I'll get a game out of it, Obsidian has made mostly good games.

They're working on it.

"Haha, suggested Obsidian stretch goals: '1.5 Million: We'll write in romances.' '2 million: We won't let Chris Avellone write the romances'"

I do agree it would be nice to change the title of the thread to something like "Project Eternity - The next Baldur's Gate" to catch more attention.

Trending really doesn't mean anything. I think it just takes how much money has come in on that day, and multiplies it by the days left or something like that.

I get a little concerned when they talk about how they are happy it can be a mature game though. I think think its nice and all when a game doesn't shy away from blood and things, but a lot of games these days have decided to go the whole "dark gritty" route where every other character is a drug addict or something like that. That trend is really getting old to me. I hope when they talk about it getting a mature rating, they just mean it will have some realistic levels of violence. I think Skyrim hit this just right, there is blood and whatnot, and there is even drug use and other things, but they don't shove it in your face in an attempt to be "edgy", it just fits in as part of the world.

I don't think they mean the "in your face blood, gore and sex" stuff when they say mature themes. It's not Obsidian's style and it would be quite difficult to do on an Infinity-type engine.

The thing is, most games advertising mature themes, in reality, just end up showing boobs and explicit gore left and right. I believe by "mature" they mean Planescape-like maturity, as in treating the player like an intelligent person and the story tackling some sort of philosophical question(s).
