Oh, the Ninja looks pretty neat.

 

[Shouta]

Japanese companies suck. You just don't know how much they suck until you have to deal with them, lol.

 

[AmethystEnd]

Prepare for the gend

I thought we were done with Guest Characters? What is Speed-of-Sound Sonic with a dye job doing in here?

Sonic wishes he had that kind of upper body.

 

[WolvenOne]

...And it looks like PayPal is down?

Spoiler

The Skullgirls curse still lives.

.......craaaaaap!

I was wondering why things slowed down in the past ten minutes.

 

[Ravidrath]

Yeah, like... all the Konami MGSV stuff sounds like its only slightly worse than the usual Japanese company.

You really need to fire Mike Z and lift whatever demons he woke.

Spoiler

Please don't do that

So what you're saying is one of the bosses will be PayPal?

 

[Swhalen]

I'm not sure I would describe myself as "personable," especially on video.

But I am the CEO dude, yes, Peter Bartholow.

Sure you're not confusing the "personable" bit with Earl? Haha.

It's very awesome that you are posting in here. I'm so glad you guys are funded. Hope we can push for the next stretch goal.

 

[WolvenOne]

This would be a great time for an independently wealthy millionaire gamer to sneak on by and drop 20K on this game.

Just saying. XD

 

[Crocodile]

So does the campaign move into "InDemand" mode as soon as it ends (so like people could just keep donating as if nothing happened) or is there some sort of pause/delay (hours/days) before the campaign switches modes?

 

[jb1234]

When does the campaign end, 12 AM PST?

 

[Ravidrath]

I think it switches over immediately, but I doubt I'm going to be able to make all the campaign changes before tomorrow.

I was wondering if the game will get a male character of this style, now we know.

I missed this. LZG delivers again.

A+++

Haha. Funny story: When I tried to contribute earlier, the first time Paypal declined the transaction because my card got denied. Turns out I haven't logged into Paypal proper for so long I forgot to update my card. The old one expired in December this year, but I didn't notice the Paypal issue because as of yesterday it still worked when I bought something from the Google Play Store. Lololol.

 

[Hedge]

So basically imagine every Japanese corporation spending a ton of and money time on the Luminous Engine for 10 years instead of using Unreal, and then wondering why their economy is in bad shape.

I know this is a serious issue, but this made me laugh way harder than was probably the intention.

Edit: Wait, CEO? I thought.. you were someone else.
*starstruck*

 

[Hours Left]

Does ninja man have a name yet?

 

[Samemind]

I'm fighting off sleep to see the campaign end. 1.86m is a strong position to end with.

 

[Ravidrath]

Does ninja man have a name yet?

No, not yet.

We're going to name him and finalize his story soon.

 

[Astarte]

Ninjas

10/10, it's alright

 

[GamingOblivion]

So we aren't going to get the animation opening are we? Dammit so close

 

[Alex_Mexico]

If we're lucky, we'll be able to announce it before 2016.

...But given the speed at which Japan moves, I'm not particularly hopeful that will happen.

I guess you're talking about the anime studio.

Is there any clause that says "if it gets funded you automatically have the go to reveal the name of the studio"? I mean after all they're supposed to be committed to it if funded right?

Am I expecting too much?

 

[Skrams]

So fanartists made Razmi super hot when she was pictured as a shriveled old woman body. I haven't seen much fanart take into account her disgustingly long nails, so that makes sense.

Does ninja man have a name yet?

Don't think so. They didn't say one on stream besides a joke name of one of the employees there as far as I heard.

 

[Moonlight]

Still have the slacker backer campaign!

 

[Hours Left]

No, not yet.

We're going to name him and finalize his story soon.

Ah, okay.

He's a strong contender for spot #3 in my party I think.

 

[Raging Spaniard]

Man, almost at two million. More than 2x what Skullgirls made, thats so rad!

 

[More_Badass]

Ninjas

New incarnation?

Those hair blades remind me of District B13: Ultimatumi

 

[Hedge]

Ah, okay.

He's a strong contender for spot #3 in my party I think.

Who are your other two?

 

[ramoisdead]

Welp, upgraded to the $60 tier. Physical PS4 version, digital PC version. Sounds like a win to me.

Wish we knew what the anime studio was.

Japanese companies suck. You just don't know how much they suck until you have to deal with them, lol.

Pretty much this. Get with the times, Japanese companies.

 

[Crocodile]

Wait so Kinuko just said on stream that not all the revealed Incarnations would be playable (i.e the named original ones). Is that true? Because then I think I, and I assume most people, really misunderstood what was going on here.

Yeah, I'm a bit confused if all these characters shown so far actually aren't going to be party members with their own attacks and what not.

 

[TyrantGuardian]

Ajna is an optional party member in NG+, apparently. Great!

 

[Hedge]

Wait really? So does she disappear when you go into battle-mode?

 

[SpaceCadetKeon]

Ninjas

Ooh, he's pretty. I hope he's playable.

 

[Hours Left]

Who are your other two?

It's a mystery~

Really though, I won't just be sticking to one set of characters, I'll definitely give everyone a go, but I know Kogi and Tatanka will be pretty heavily used. Thorani, Dhar, Naga Ride, Antoine, Zahra, Baozhai, Tenoch and now Ninja Guy are current favs too, but all the characters are appealing.

 

[TyrantGuardian]

Wait really? So does she disappear when you go into battle-mode?

That, I dunno.

 

[suzu]

I think all the revealed incarnations so far are playable? And there will be npc incarnations that you can recruit for other purposes in Ajna's inner realm (kinda like in the Suikoden series).

Well...
From the campaign page

Most of the game’s Incarnations are for expanding and adding functionality to Ajna’s Inner Realm. For example, quests to upgrade your weapons and armor may come from a blacksmith Incarnation you discover, or a biologist might unlock a bestiary.

 

[SinCityAssassin]

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

 

[TyrantGuardian]

Congratulations, Lab Zero! So happy about this

[WolvenOne]

Okay, so the Slacker Backer needs to earn 33K for the Anime opening, anything after that goes toward the voice acting goal.

That's doable.

 

[Hours Left]

Congratulations Ravidrath, Lab Zero, 505 Games, all the contributors, etc. etc. This is really awesome.

I hope you all can have a nice break now over the holidays before getting down to it.

 

[Skrams]

Well...
From the campaign page

Welp

I missed that part. Lil bit of a bummer.

 

[Soulstar]

What a ride this has been. It's great to see it funded.

 

[Lime]

Congrats lab zero. It's been quite a ride.

 

[WolvenOne]

Also, yeah Congrats. XD

Hope you guys get a good break.
