I'm at $30 simply for the production meeting videos.

The updated $30 donation pack is hearty.

That's one thing I find curious - this, Shadowrun, and the Banner Saga all did well (a combined what, 5 million? Or probably will when it's all done) even though mostly running at the same time.
Did it help or hurt running concurrently (mostly), with all three being turn based RPGs. SR and this in particular seem to be very close.
On the one hand, like you (or me) if you have only X amount of money, you have to spread it around. On the other hand, once you've been drawn to kickstarter, you notice the projects better...

Kickstarer is the best thing ever.

Not until Jon Van Caneghem kickstarts Might and Magic X and Richard Garriott kickstarts Ultima X.

While I would love to see that, I think it's simply neither one wants to make those sorts of games anymore. JVC works at EA as an executive and Richard Garriott has the money to do pretty much any game he wants (well, not something like SWTOR but virtually anything else) - he got what, 50 million from NCSoft?

2.9 million in KS with 100k in PP, just as expected! With 1 hour and 30 minutes left to spare!

did my part by putting down 50 for the boxed copy.
i almost never pay anywhere near full retail for my games and physical media leaves me cold. this project however is something special.

Same, the 2nd copy of the game made it too good a deal.
I can probably get a Chinese meal as thanks for giving that as a gift.

Beautiful. Mod tools = more game for everyone. Would like to see this hit $3M just on KS too for visual effect.
So what can we expect in terms of development status and information flow after this is done? How is the DF one doing with that, just for reference?

DF has one docu out, it's a summation of how well the funding went. There will probably be one ever 2 moths.
Forums open for backers, but I don't think anything too official has happened there yet.

Realistically, that's not going to happen.
I'm not sure if I'm understanding you correctly, but for $100 you get a better box than for $50.

I'm interested in seeing how much goes to rewards and what the final budget ends up being.

Interesting note- kickstarters for RPG games have much much less trouble hitting budget than other genres (apart from Schaffer point&click).

As long as it stays above $2 million there shouldn't be a problem.

WHY IS THE STREAM BROKEN

Double Fine ended up with roughly 1 million less for the actual game budget. But then 400k of that was for the documentary. inXile's side stuff won't require as much I imagine.

If you can't view that you suck.

Better is not something that I could judge at this point not having seen either. My problem is that the $100 box replaces the $50 one, rather than at least giving the $100 tier an empty box from the $50 tier as well (or have the $100 box be big enough to fit the $50 one + contents and have the coin etc on its own) The problematic parts are as follows: 1) I don't know which box I would prefer 2) The collector's box will probably be larger than a regular "big box" PC release.
It may seem like a petty thing to complain about, probably is but it's a factor for me.
I'm not authorized but I'm a backer :/

Most likely not. But things are going fast in the last hour or so. There has been an additional $28,000 earned on Kickstarter since it hit 3 million. And there's still 12 minutes left.

Jumped in for $15. Been bitching about the lack of classic party school party based RPGs forever. Figured I'd put my money where my mouth is.
he is also a gaffer and 1 half of Zeboyd Games.

Did you make your DF forum account on the same email as your kickstarter? If you still can't view it a couple of days after that contact DF and they should correct it for you.
