What is there to hype about? Nothing much, is what.
We're all here with our cocks in hand waiting for this to be remotely like Arcanum, but not even C & B can out-swim the current of retardation that flows from Obsidisoft.
If this is isometric, and even loosely Arcanum / ToEE, I'll shit a golden brick, but my gut feels it's just going to be watered down dribble, made for the masses.

I don't get all excitement. If Kickstater told us anything is that old ex-retired geezers, who did nothing in a while is a spend material. And while certain game was mechanically solid it lacked in other departments.

Of course. We have been waiting for a real RPG for more than 15 years. :D

this shit looks like dying visions of a dying brain........
To sum this up:
Go and feed your cat. Or your dog. Or your wife.
Pet them in order of importance.
Cook some tasty food, something fat, fried, hot, eat that slowly with a good beer or something like that, and watch some good old movie, some The Hitcher or something.
Forget about all this bullshit.

Wait until you see the film whence it came from.
The moment you realize that modern AAA RPG companies work similar to a post-modernist dance company run by a coven of progressive, degenerate and demented lesbian witches.
The end results are similar:
Much anguish, sorrow, insanity and decline.

Hmmm, those teaser images (and history of older devs sticking to ideas from their youth) make me think this will be a space version of Fallout, meaning space travel/exploration as seen through the eyes of 1950s (or some other past flavorful decade), with lots of humor sprinkled in.
That on its own doesn't mean anything though, the question is can they use today's technology to create something that's not just a space rehash of Fallout, but the equivalent of what Fallout was in 1997 to today's gaming scene.

You have some unrealistic expectations about the game. Imho today is several times harder to create the equivalent of what Fallout was in 1997 ... not to mention that nobody can say what such an equivalent would be.
That's why I would settle for something on par or even slightly lower than Fallout: a new world to explore, branching narrative with choices-and-consequences, fully usable skills and perks system, decent combat, ending slides and gore animations.
Anyone who thinks this will be even on par with Fallout/Arcanum is in for some massive disappointment.

You're all shills
This game will be to Arcanum what Fallout 3 was to Fallout.

It will be realtime
Third person or shouldercam
Action-based gameplay
remember my words

Your point?
Obsidian's Alpha Protocol fit all those criteria - great game. It was also a bug-ridden, incomplete, mess.
Still better than Fallout 3
