If you have hundreds of dollars that you are going to give to someone, you need to do some research on them or you don't deserve any sympathy.

As part of Project Eternity making so much dough, one of the side requirements was that Chris Avellone had to play Arcanum. They posted a poll as to how he should document this undertaking.

no to actively cast my eyes along some text from left to right would be too much effort, obviously the ideal medium for chris best writer in videogames avellone to do this is via incredibly boring youtube videos so i can stare at his sweaty putz while my jowly face hangs open

Rabbi Loew, along with his smart and eager apprentice, convinces the guilds of Prague to assist him in the creation of the Golem.
would be surprised if jews were even allowed in these "guilds"
putting that aside, tho, they do beautiful work

the guilds? yeah, i guess so

Guy is a multi-millionaire who went into space but I might've punted him ten bucks for a kickstarted game, except the game tier is $40. Thousands of dollars for some entirely imaginary (un)real estate in a game which doesn't exist yet, if ever? I'll pass, thanks.

$10 + $30 tiers still open (and the $30 tier comes w/ digital copy of the game i think?)

Lord British clearly doesn't need Kickstarter. $1MM is not close to enough to make that game. He's probably just on the bandwagon for marketing reasons, and because nobody objects to a million dollar loan at 0% interest.

Dude deserves it.
The more the happens the more it feels like, Pitchfork getting Pavement to play the full album of "Slanted and Enchanted" or something. Kickstarter is to videogame idols what the classic album concert is to indie rock band.

Also why does he never seem to get called out on the FUCKING AWFULNESS of referring to himself as Lord British? If I decided to start calling myself Sherriff Clint American Jr I'd expect to be laughed off the Internet but nobody ever seems to have a problem with his whole embarrassing schtick.

Why doesn't Ron Gilbert just figure out how much it would cost to do his version of Monkey Island 3 and do a kickstarter for that? It would be successful beyond belief.
