hey who would have guessed that giving half a million dollars to some Youtube "celebrities" to fund their own Minecraft ripoff would be a bad idea? certainly not the 5 people who backed at the $10,000 level!

Yeah, having the character creator as an early demo plaything would have been a neat advance promotional item

i... don't have the 18 gigs free to install... need to delete a lot of stuff.
― Nhex, Thursday, 26 March 2015 14:36 (nine years ago) link
That was odd because it told me I'd need 18Gb but then once it was downloading it only pulled 6Gb. So either there's more to come once it unlocks, or that initial 18Gb estimate is wrong.
― JimD, Thursday, 26 March 2015 14:54 (nine years ago) link
from the PC Gamer Review:
Almost an hour had passed, and I was still on the character creation screen. That s how I knew, before I d even started, that this homage to classic computer role-playing games like Baldur s Gate, Icewind Dale, and Planescape: Torment was authentic.

― Nhex, Saturday, 20 June 2015 05:15 (eight years ago) link
I mentioned in the E3 thread that a lot of the stuff in the first game had to be made from scratch, but all of that is included in modern, off-the-shelf game engines.

Justin Bailey has launched Fig, a new crowdfunding site built specifically for games. The former chief operating officer of developer Double Fine partnered with some big names and studios who previously had success on Kickstarter, specifically his old colleague, Tim Schafer (The Broken Age), Brian Fargo of InXile (Wasteland 2), and Feargus Urquhart of Obsidian (Pillars of Eternity). Each has pledged to launch campaigns for new games on Fig.Fig also stands out from other crowdfunding sites in that you buy equity in a game or developer, meaning you can actually make money from a successful project...

Right now it's at $894K investment and $995K rewards - wouldn't have thought the ratio would be so close. Kinda tempted to go on it as a lark, but probably not worth it given it'll take several years to recoup.
