Another leaker? Shameful. I say it with a heavy heart, but we have to ban Intinium now. There's simply no other choice.

Lol blow me, faggot ;D

Also, it's quite clever, that Fargo sends emails to all previous backers. Ensures big backering this time around, too.

Does it? We'll see.

Just so I've got this right... they're expecting 40% of $2.75 million from backers or $2.75 million is the total they need from backers?

You're misunderstanding the chart. They're expecting 40% of the game's total funding from Fig, including both regular backers and Fig investors. They're looking to raise $2.75M on Fig, so the game's total budget is at least 2.75 * (1/0.4) = $6.875M.

Fig investment is capped at 2.25m of the 2.75m, so a minimum of 500.000 bux must be made from backers alone.

Best of luck to Mr. Fargo!

Supporting if Jason D. Anderson gets back on board. No wait, he should join Obsidian :bro:

$7m would be a p. nice budget for a semi-indiie game. But they'll probably blow most of it on liquor and whores console versions, VA and co-op.

Another piece of skillful concept art, in which the protagonist is shown in the uniform of the good faction.

It's always nice to see that also the younger producers have their say about the art direction the game

Oh, well that makes more sense. Otherwise that would've been way too high of a cut.

Normally I'd say a video game is a moronic thing to invest in, but there's a shitload of young-and-dumb money floating around California and not many opportunities for decent returns. Fargo may already have investors in the bag.

I'm assuming "outside partners" = Techland.

Brother None also did a bunch of writing on Torment, so with luck he'll be writing the entire faction questline for us.

Fig takes a 30 to 35% cut of the revenue of all their games. Quality and professionalism have their price.
