I wanted to pre-order but after seeing the gameplay and reading about the game I've resigned. Besides beatiful graphics and turn based combat it doesn't have that much to offer by the looks of it. The setting is common, has no uniqeness, the locations consist mostly of dungeons (although there will be exterrior locations and dungeons will vary) and there are way too many cinematics for my taste even though it's not that long ("longer than 15 h of gameplay", so maybe 30 h at most, possibly less and movies will take at least an hour judging by the gameplay I've seen).

The silver lining here is that they don't need additional money so if the game will turn out to be good and more than a dungeon crawler (which according to devs it isn't and I have no reason to not believe them) I'll most likely buy it.

Very good summary of what we can expect can be found here: https://rpgcodex.net/forums/index.p...ntal-interactions.124944/page-33#post-6342395

I'm a well-known philantropist when it comes to bad RPGs, but I can't decide if this is another one of them. Should I donate?

It looks somewhere between decent and mediocre, so it depends whether you want to ruin your reputation and get a fancy tag of shame.
I wear my backer tags as a reminder, not with pride :negative:

Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is. Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth
I already backed at an early bird tier, so there's not much incentive for me to join in here. The actual fundraiser seems to be doing okay with $500+ in the bag. It'll be fun to see what you guys come up with.

Infinitron's going to have to remind me what we had planned for these.
