What do you mean? He's a non-companion NPC?

Yes. He might be a ride-along NPC (if we have them), but that's still TBD.

Right then. That makes six known companions at the moment, including The Toy.

I wonder if the other two are the Avellone and Rothfuss companions, respectively.

Can you share who wrote what companions? Or is that hush-hush?

 

[Sensuki]

Can you guise hurry up and add donate own amount so I can get alpha and beta access so I dont miss out on the discount

cheers

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

It is a good time to be a PC gamer.

I cried.

 

[mindx2]

Seems InXile has learned a lot from W2 because THAT'S HOW YOU FIRST SHOW OFF YOUR GAME! Pretty impressive how just 3 minutes of music, dialogue, voice and animation can nail that Torment vibe...

Seconded.

 

[Stereotypical Villain]

Well, I'm backing this tomorrow since I doubt that sister nun will give me that... "review copy" that I deserve.

 

[Abu Antar]

I am watching the trailer again and thinking:

Two of them are being written by Avellone and Rothfuss (that much you know). One will be written by our own Nathan Long. We have ideas of who will write the others, but they haven't been officially divvied out yet.

As for who is writing which ones, I can't say unless/until someone else reveals it, sorry

 

[Darth Roxor]

So... for how long will the crowdfunding campaign on the main site still run?

I'm asking for... a friend, yes, a friend! ... who forgot to pledge!

 

[kain30]

i hope this game will have 50+ hour of content only with dialogs ^_^

 

[Karwelas]

I just watched the first gameplay on youtube and... oh my God. This is very good. I don't even know what think now. Anybody who say something about "RPG genre is dead" must be retarded or blind.

Don't know, but you should pledge before October 16th to help hit the new stretch goal.

 

[Darth Roxor]

What do you mean "you"?!

 

[Volrath]

Looks amazing.

 

[karfhud]

This is just... I'm speechless. Obviously it's only a YT video, but it feels like Torment, feels right.



I'm ultra-hyped for this. Gotta bump up the pledge...

...at least once I figure out how this new system works.

 

[circ]

Avellone's gonna write the chicks.

Graphics look like crap guys. Good animations though.

 

[Abu Antar]

For those who have managed their pledges: If I already managed my pledge, the new site will automatically give me the rewards I am entitled to, right? I need to know before making more donations.

 

[Sensuki]

Well I've removed mine in preparation to up it.

I'm doing my part too

 

[Lord Andre]

Since no one has said it yet, I would like to courtly invite Roguey to eat its words together with a bag of dicks.

 

[Ulminati]

Dear Roguey.

You are cordially invited to eat your words along with a bag of dicks. Choke on them.

Sincerely

RPGCodex.

 

[Jarakka]

Yeah, it does look good.

But I remember when footage of PoE came out everyone was going all ooh aah and have a look at the reactions now. Same goes for SRR, the vid where Mitch and Jordan were showing the gameplay footage got everyone hyped and then when the actual game came out people were between "eh, good for what it is" and "it sucks".

So while it's promising, I'm not going to get mad and run into the streets naked just because of a couple minute clip.

 

[karfhud]

It's promising, I'm going to get mad and run into the streets naked because it's the most awesome thing on the Internet.

Fixed.

 

[Roguey]

Yeah, it does look good.

Yes, I find the revisionism itt to be hilarious.

What? Was I wrong about something? Post links.
