Several posters in this thread express uncomfortable with the idea of greed infested the world.

Too close to heart, izzatit?
Nah, we just think we don't need a dark goddess to enjoy our native human greed. We can do greedy well enough ourselves.
"No, ArchAngel. You are the dark goddess."

That would be a cool twist at the end of the game. But this group of developers seem to dense to actually do something like that.
EDIT: At best you will turn out to be a child of Bh.. Dark Goddess :D

"Join the baddie or fight the Baddie ... also, fight the baddie or join the baddie ... you can actually oppose the baddie, or, if so inclined, ally with the baddie" :lol: This trailer is amazing.

I’m blown away by the amazing choice and consequence - to loot, or not to loot, the corpses, that is question.

Will you be a paladin Mary Sue, or a Scooby-Doo villain?

The choice is yours!!!!!!!

But is the game inclusive?

On discord someone brought up that one of the school of spells is called "Oriental" and that it may be problematic. Devs basically shrugged and said "We don't think it's racist, and ppl are gonna get offended and attack us anyway. What are you gonna do?"

So not crazy SJWs confirmed, at least.

Hmm, looking at the list of features, multiple platforms, and the art and equipment in the trailer, I am sceptical that you can do that for $50K. I only back unknown devs if they can show something solid, like The Iron Oath for example.

"Greed is corrupting" sounds as surprisingly anti-Western philosophical and historical concept.
It just going against the minds of western people, doesn't look like it will be popular.

People can get any shit funded as long as they add "Infinity Engine" to the list of inspirations on the page.

"This is a Kickstarter to fund ISIS terrorists, so they can buy new RPG's from US contractors. We were inspired by Infinity Engine games and their AMAZING characters.. Torment."

BACKED IT!

Chaos and despair spread throughout the Kingdom of Isilmerald. Its desperate people cry out, praying to the gods for help. But the force they face is no mere plague of the undead, or demonic attack… Something far more sinister, far more primal is afoot. Avarice!

ISIL + Emerland = Isilmerald

:mrpresident:

Make the Codex Great Again! Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag. I helped put crap in Monomyth
I'm not sure if the Kickstarter campaign will succeed, but I love that type of game, so - pledged.

Yeah, I think I'm going to back this just so we can see what happens if it actually gets funded. :P It probably won't though.

Don't be so sure.

This the biggest scam in crpg games, since InXile

Trending towards 342% of goal.

Don't know if I should back now or wait until the CODEX FUNDRAISER.

Eh… Sure, why not? I'm very tired atm, so pay now and ask questions later.

Throw everything against the wall, and see what sticks.
