@atn98 They explained that guns in PE are kind of crappy. Due to reload times, and accuracy. The main advantage of a gun is getting pass a mage shield. Basically guns in this game occupy the same area as the late middle ages. Easy to use, and effective. But with some major drawbacks.
@jonwight Yeah, I got the cash to spare (after grown up things like bills, and mortgage). Would have liked to donate at the $1000 level but that was a bit beyond my range. 2012 has been a pretty meh year for gaming, so basically the money I set aside for gaming each year is going to Kickstarter this year. From Wasteland 2, Shadowrun, and Project Eternity, to small time indie games, and other neat kickstarter projects.
@nocoolnamejim Its more of the fact that companies come to them and basically say "We want you to make a sequel." so Obsidian goes alright, how long do we got? and the company goes "11 months." Obsidian then goes "I think I can manage..." Then around the 6th month mark the company shows up and goes "We want it done in 8 months."
Or in the case of Knights of the Old Republic 2, have them work on the game, then release a trailer saying it will be out in two months without being told.
Interplay is standing up the skeleton that use to be Interplay, while Interplay is in a zombie like state.
Crazy.
As for people asking for 'Planescape Torment 2' that will never happen/shouldn't happen. Chris Avellone the project head said PT was a one time thing. But he wouldn't turn down making another game set in Planescape, just not a sequel to Torment.
