Is that "castoff" the character you play in the game?

I think we are going to be last cast off not first, but it would be hilarious to see all those people whinning about character look and gender and race and other shit like that getting such monstrosity.

I really want to know what that spectral entity floating above her hand is.

 

[Kosmonaut]

What's wrong with LCO eyes and why does she have saggy breasts?

in your face with a first-person world and a real time engine, without abandoning the real hard core role-playing elements.

Sounds.......EXTREME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude is pissing against the wind.

We can welcome Brian Mitsoda to the team.

Well, adding up Paypal it was achieved yesterday, or?

Yeah i guess, but it was marked as achieved on kickstarter just recently, today.

Actually there are already people whining about the Last Castoff being too ugly. "Why doesn't she have hair??"

 

[Globbi]

On http://tormentrpg.tumblr.com/ it says Last Castoff Statuette. Not only it the First Castoff but also likely the first statuette, or am I missing something.

LCO is angry and she's not supposed to be a sex symbol.

 

[Stabwound]

The characters look great. Fuck anyone who complains; I'd be happy playing either of those characters in the game.

About time. They haven't updated Kickstarter for like 4-5 days which is surprising for such a successful project.

 

[Diablo169]

Exciting news eh? but is it MCA exciting, or social pets and ingame weather exciting.

They're called "weekends" bro.

The exciting news might be 2D-related stuff.

They're called "weekends" bro.

I wouldn't take weekends off during an active Kickstarter campaign, certainly not the entire team for the entire weekend. If I did, I'd prepare material in advance to post on Saturday and Sunday. I'm not one of those people who demands constant updates, but the weekend is likely a better time to drum up interest than during the rest of the week.

Maybe if the campaign was still booming, but this is the mid-Kickstarter lull period.

Since this is a kickstarter project and funded by fans InXile takes their backer feedback very seriously. Changes have been made to the default character appearance as a response to the overwhelming requests for a better looking main character. Colin McComb claims that this does not compromise the original vision and that it fits perfectly with the themes of the game.

[Stabwound]

Haha, holy shit It looks like an extra-terrestrial tranny.

I'd say the original comes across more as a butch lesbian.

 

[Jaesun]

I like the original better. But that was amusing Jack. <3
