So for this update, let me just commit Kevin and say, "VERY SOON. TODAY."

 

[Infinitron]

 

[hiver]

I...like it. She seems alright too.

 

[Aeschylus]

The toy sounds pretty interesting. They sure have collected an all star team of introverts to write for this game.

 

[hiver]

Other than that the update is very underwhelming.

No info on any of the concepts of 3.0 tier?

Merchandise? Then more merchandise? Greeeeeat.

 

[Jedi Exile]

Merchandise? Then more merchandise? Greeeeeat.

But this is exactly what we need, right?

 

[hiver]

Someone does... but they could have thrown more info on other stuff.

 

[Kz3r0]

This is one of the best updates, and Mur is sexy.

 

[iZerw]

Other than that the update is very underwhelming.

Addons were very helpful during Project:Eternity campaign.Torment is slowly reaching the same amount of backers as P:E, maybe the maximum for such projects. Soon to squeeze current backers will be the only way to reach further goals.

Who cares?

If the backing continues as it is now we get Rothfuff and MCA easy.

There was three cults to talk about more, various basic things they could make clearer, the world map traveling, companion mechanics, some new small location in general, creatures of some kind, ecology, whatever.

 

[tuluse]

Companions in this game sound more reactive than any game I know of

 

[Jaesun]

That was really good. Man all that companion stuff sounds fucking cool. And how the Toy works sounds really good.

And Mur seems awesome.

 

[Captain Shrek]

Why does she sound like a 13 year old girly dude?

But yeah. I must admit the companion description sounds A LOT like it was true for MoTB.

 

[Globbi]

The video update was really nice, actually talking about something with examples from game. Other than that nothing interesting, just housekeeping.

Brother None, do you know if for printed novella compilation I have to pay additional shipping if I already paid $18 for international physical goods? Are the books going to be shipped together with the game or earlier? Or is there a choice? I know it's all in the making but would be nice if there were such details, deciding on some of these goods depend on it.

 

[mikaelis]

This is one of the best updates, and Mur is sexy.

Yeah, I would totally romance her if it was Bioware game. Like seducing Gayder daughter, and then trying to avoid the sinister father

 

[LeStryfe79]

But is she White Knightable?

Novella does take additional shipping, yes, sorry. We're shipping them early so you don't get them way after digital delivery, and they're a hefty package so we can't ship for free worldwide.

 

[Cowboy Moment]

But is she White Knightable?

Hey lay off the trigger words man, hiver has been doing really well recently.

 

[Jasede]

She reminds of me of Eileen from Regular Show.

 

[Snikt]

So the Last Castoff is kinda like a Voodoo Doll, except as a person...

 

[Lancehead]

I get the feeling your party can be uber-powerful with a little bit of metagaming.

Also, don't like the t-shirts designs (I know, mock-ups). The statuette is cool, though.

 

[Jaesun]

There just needs to be a Serpent in Torment. The Symbology of Serpents is awesome. And a new avatar of Torment Serpent Art would be pure awesome <3.

 

[hiver]

- you stay away from my Nanoconda, hear?

I just hope they dont turn companions into emotional wrecks i need to baby sit and that cannot live without me... ffs...

 

[Kem0sabe]

One thing i hope about the companions is that the player won't be able to completely change their personally with a few lines of text.

"c'mon stop being a bad dude, it's bad for universe karma"

"ok"

Hate when that shit happens, as we all know very few people actually change their personality, we are what we are, no matter what anyone says or tries to convince you otherwise.
