Owlcat already has huge menagerie of high-quality animal models and engine that could deal with size-scaling. Changing them into mounts does not seem this difficult and PnP rules cover mechanical parts already.

So imho there are lot less risks that riding will turn into Black-Hole-feature like infamous ship combat.

Yeah, but they will probaby need to make a few new animations for each mount model and mounted player models, for the actual mounting, on death/mount death while mounted, on mount attack while mounted, on melee mounted attack, etc etc.

Heh, campaign just hit half-million mark. In less than an hour from opening stretch goal at 475k.

How to get 25000$ in pledges from responsible adults with the cash?
Promise them a pony!

It's because of the Kingmaker Kickstarter update they put out: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/owlcatgames/pathfinder-kingmaker/posts/2749123

Carefully timed to juice up the campaign at the 48h mark.
Judging by the responses, I'm not so sure about that.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Wow, they're ticking one of the big boxes. I remember winding up the Bioware fanbois when I first started posting back then - because every time a game came out, everybody would ask if it had running, flying/z-axis, riding/horse combat, cloaks and robes, and sometimes guns and magic settings. So naturally I said I wanted to add big tits to the list. That was Dragon Age: Origins. I suppose I got the tits in the form of the brood mother(s).

So TOEE covered cloaks and robes, Arcanum did the guns and magic, Skyrim mods gave me the tits, and Owlcat are managing the riding and horse combat. If they pull it off, it'll be a landmark in gaming.

During a session of Pathfinder: Kingmaker I stumbled upon a traveller's scroll which described fearsome goblin warg riders in the local region. With renewed vigour I marched towards the goblin encampment, only to find no such riders existed. :cry:

So now they've got my hopes up again. The announcement of mounted combat is welcome, as long as they remember my absent friend the goblin warg rider this time around.

Well men I backed at the collector's edition. Thought about getting the GM edition because I might run WotR for my tabletop group some day; it'd be nice to have physical versions of the modules but on the other hand I do already have the pdfs they're not hard to find.

Eastern block
-Difficulty based on tactics/encounter design and not statbloat
-Mounted combat and cavaliers

Get out of my head Owlcat. What's next, no more time limits?

Oleg said he's aware people didn't like time attacks and will look for a different way to motivate progress. He also compared the "crusade system" with Civilization.

The bad news is that advisors are still in and there's still no traditional quest structure.
