Looks awesome, even if it is only one screen. Good for Obsidian gettin dat cash too, awesome dev, even if their quality control is a little lacking at times.

I hope they spend the 2.6 million on QA

Thanks for posting this. I was waiting for more details about the game when it was first announced. I had forgotten about it though and this reminded me to go pledge $25 for it.

Very nice, looking forward to more info! :)

Next gen game? MercenaryMafia

I'm pretty excited for this. I don't think it will have all the stuff they are promising but even if it can come close, should be awesome.

Wow. That looks so beautiful.

Looks so clean so this is officially next gen or is it just a PC exclusive.HaloPimp978

It's a PC exclusive. The image is in 2560x1440, which makes it look even more crisp than 1080p

All these kickstarter games are going to feel like they take forever to come out since we find out about them in pre-development. SAGE_OF_FIRE

I saw that Project Eternity is slated for 2014 and kind of regret pledging. 2014 is a long way off. At that point, I will have a bachelor's degree and most likely have my career in line. I'm not even 100% sure I will still even be that into video games by then :(

Screen is more fun than actually playing Diablo 3.

Wow. That is better than I expected. Well, not sure what I expected, but it's better than I expected I would have expected... Yea, I think that makes sense.

Looks awesome. I was thinking it would be utilizing prerendered 2D backdrops like the olden days. Definitely a surprise.

:o Totally forgot about it.

Definitely going to do my part when I get home later today and pledge 15$.

Now that's what I'm talking about!

Way to go lads.

First game I ever backed. It looks SWEET!

The other one I'm considering backing is Star Citizen.

So kickstarting is now about supporting a bunch of oldies, with tons of experience, who wants to do the same game they did over ten years ago? Sushiglutton

Yes, Kickstarter solely exists to force people into giving money for games they don't want to play. Instead, we should rely on suits/publishers who don't game to graciously bestow upon us the same games every year.

The market is just oversaturated with old-school Baldur's Gate/Fallout games. We need more MP-focused FPS/TPS on the market.

Looks awesome, even if it is only one screen. Good for Obsidian gettin dat cash too, awesome dev, even if their quality control is a little lacking at times.

That looks amazing. I would love to see Obsidian make an Elder Scrolls game.

LETS GET IT TO 3.5 MILLION PEOPLE! I WANT THAT SECOND LARGE CITY

I wouldn't trust developers enough to finish the game in a timely manner on donations

Obsidian has a shaky history of getting games out the door in time

They don't really have a deadline..

PFFFFT! Obsidian? People are still wasting money on these ass h*les? Dudes couldn't code a game properly if their life depended on it.

I'm hoping that because there is no publisher forcing deadline on them all the time that they will have the bugs in their game at a minimum. It may be wishful thinking but even though Fallout: New Vegas was a bugfest, it is one of the best RPGs this gen. I have not played their past work but many of their past projects are considered classics.

I've heard a lot of good things about New Vegas, but some of those things I've seen in reviews scare the sh*t out of me. Are there mods that correct most of the problems in the PC version? If so I might get it because Fallout 3 was pretty badass.

[QUOTE="FrozenLiquid"][QUOTE="SAGE_OF_FIRE"] That's why you only back projects with known talented developers working on them. Eternity has Chris Avellone, Josh Sawyer, Tim Cain, and George Ziets working on it. lawlessx
