[Kz3r0]

I graced this project with an orange color in the Watch thread, any objection?

Maybe you should change the text in the opening post a bit, where you state

(which is, from what I've gathered, the same thing as Kickstarter except for non-US citizens; somebody correct me if I'm wrong).

I believe that you are wrong - the funding is not only pledged if target is met as with Kickstarter, but it will be pledged either way:

Flexible Funding campaign
This campaign will receive all of the funds contributed by Thu May 17 at 11:59PM PT.

50$ already, only 99,950 more to go.

I would like to support this bitch but I can't say I have faith in their ability to see through with the project plus the unconditional donation thing. I'm also not crazy about the lore. I'd be more interested to see a strong design vision, what the game will actually be like as far as quest structures and game systems will go.

I remember waiting for this game for years when I was younger.
I still hate them for how they gave me false hope to play a "new Ultima", just to never post a single update again in years.
They can fuck off now.

So this project has been dead for ages and now returns with the crowdfunding craze, with a video made first for Kickstarter and then transported on Indiegogo, where, surprise, you can get all the pledges even if the funding goal is not met, all right, the brown section it is.

UPDATE #1 :

A number of people contacted us asking us to change our funding campaign to "fixed funding". We had hoped that Indiegogo could simply change it for us but apparently not, so we had to relaunch...

Their goal is now 30,000

All right, back to orange.

I was first tempted to ask how an unsuccessful campaign caused their needs to go from 100K to 30K... But I think their hearts are in the right place. They'll make up for it by subcontracting less & doing more themselves and the crowdfunding will add the element of accountability that perhaps they were missing back in the day. Bring on the competition!

And now the webpage is dead. They cancelled it I guess.

Well, it's says that is in draft mode, whatever that means, back to brown by the way,until they will deliver.

So... what are the chances of this actually becoming anything other than vapourware?

Absolutely none, I would guess.

with "almost 300,000 lines of code" written

I don't see how this is supposed to encourage. When a piece of software has been in development on and off for 5+ years and sits on such a huge source code, it's probably a trainwreck.

What the shit, why was this necro'd?
