Wasn't it last week that loads of people where complaining on here about how this KS was managed?

Yeah. Best run ive seen by far. i feel sad for that one Kickstarter that came out. Old School RPG whatever. It was like the complete opposite of this one. Hopefully they get funded once Obsidians KS is finished.
i dont see how anyone could complain. 24 updates in 30 days seems pretty good. We got art, lore, music, a screenshot, Q&A sessions, and some fun stuff throughout.Wasn't it last week that loads of people where complaining on here about how this KS was managed?

People always hand-wring during the final Kickstarter days.

The Lady of Pain knows I wouldn't mind a Sigil.
As for IW, the lack of companions is what turned me off the series... Still have IW2 installed though, might give it a go in honor of ropekid

Thats right there was a little lull there.
The question is now.. what to do for 2 years? lol
Complain endlessly.
You're all required to play through Planescape: Torment. It's mandated.
Instead of DRM there should be a quiz on Infinity-engine games.

i do that anyway.
Also.. i have yet to pledge. i have $150 ready to go ($140 tier + cards) but am waiting for the final hour to be on the final surge.
i was thinking more along the lines of a complete back catalog marathon.
Kickstarter backers now: 67,825.
Lvl12 here we come!
If I was Obsidian, and we got (say) 14 floors to the mega-dungeon, I'd make the final floor lead up to a big climactic fight against an uber-enemy which grants you a key to the Treasury, which hasn't been opened in thousands of years...
...
It's empty, save for a few gold coins, and a hole in the floor with a ladder leading down
Might have to use this time to play through some of the old goodies I haven't played yet.
Mainly Icewind Dale II, and Fallout 1/2.
I tried playing Fallout 2 I think but I found it very difficult to get into. Combat was so awkward and wierd, same how I felt with Arcanum.
Dont think I finished IW1 or either.

Do we have a list of which community is doing what? I know a lot of people here have NPCs, Portraits and Weapons backed up.

Not that i know of. Right now as far as forums go its just the Codex and GAF. Codex might hit $10k. i heard that Gamebanshee (i think it was them) had one going but it fell through.

Oh, we hit 3.5? Fucking sweet

Codex hitting 10K? Nice! Good on their part!
Oh and Gamebanshee should just reduce their pledge to whatever amount they have. Every dollar counts!
Will donate all of my money.

They havent hit it yet. They are close though. Need like another 1k.

Shouldn't be a problem. They can pay the credit card holder later as long as it goes through.

I love you guys so much.

They're at 8,000 right now, so I don't know if they'll be able to hit 10k, but it's still quite a bit of money!
Gamebansee are close to 4,000.

I think this could hit $3.9M with paypal funds before all is said and done, maybe even $4M if they actually get something posted soon for the last few hours of the campaign. Already made close to 200k in the last 12 hours alone, most of those being sleeping hours in the US/EU.

Easily hitting $4M (PayPal included) if they announce another stretch goal.
so they're getting rid of left click?

Seeing as Obsidian's artists are either all asleep or collaborating on the Titan's cock, I did some concept art of my own to tide everyone over... of the GAF Inn front door!
Apologies for the quality, I'm in a hotel in Paris with one black pen, so that was done on the back of some printed out Googlemaps directions and photographed with my iPad :lol

Agreed. Now is the time to focus on making what they've promised come to pass.

It just made 5k in 15 minutes. It's going crazy fast right now and Obsidian seriously needs to react quickly if they want to get the most out of today. With a nice last stretch goal they might be able to beat DFA's last day (400k)... The time is running, though.

Naw, what they should do is have a live stream, and if we hit $4M, they do something crazy like shave Tim's head or something. Nothing that actually costs money but something fun that'll get people to drive more funds in.
Without a doubt, it needs to be in there somewhere, though stylized to fit with the rest of the art direction.
