Quoting: GuestThis game looks good, good but not as awesome as Wizardry 8, which I would consider the god of oldschool dungeon crawlers. (I mean it's the last official title in the series that officially inspired the JRPG genre, one of if not the very first turn-based combat RPG, I really wish Sirtech was still aruond, I'd love me some Wizardry 9)

In college, I bought a Wizardry I-VI bundle, that my friends and I immediately set into finishing... Yah, that pretty much ruined my first attempt at college. We'd play for days straight at times (classes? classes? what are those?)... Good stuff.

With their base of operations in Finland, origin of one Linus Torvalds, one would think they would put their tools out for Linux just for the sake of that! :)

Okay, I'm probably being pretty dense here, but if someone could please explain to me how this game is at all "roguelike" (as the description states), I'd really appreciate it... It does not remind me of rouge AT ALL from the screenshot...

Quoting: shigutsoit must be a very small bug causing the low fps issue... I hope they fix it soon!

I, for one, will definitely be looking to be a buyer if they do... *fingers crossed*

Quoting: maodzedunYeah, but in simulators you're actually doing something. In these games you're essentially doing nothing in front of a lit monitor. I don't know - I guess to each his own, but I won't get it in a million years.

Have you ever been fishing in real life, sir? There is a whole ton of strategy involved (as well as some luck). The more you learn about fishing, and the more effectively you employ the strategies you learn, the more fish you will catch. It is almost like a real life vidya game in itself. So, not only can you replicate that on your electronic device, but if it is a good simulator, and can help teach and develop this myriad of strategies that can help one to become a better real life fisherman (or woman), as well as having a blast while playing the simulator.

Looks good! Backed!

(although it's a bit unnerving how those dwarves look exactly like the ones in LoTR)

Quoting: KimyrielleThat is truly one of the better RPGs ever made, so I am going to support it despite I already played it when it was still considered new. :D

Wouldn't it be better to just symbolically link the files in the directory where it's looking instead of copying them?

On the 1st day of the Kickstarter, for a $20+ pledge, one also received a free copy of Wasteland 2, The Witcher, or The Witcher 2. I didn't know that and waited until just after the 24 hours when I pledged. Luckily for me they then extended that offer for another day, so I'll be getting a free copy of Wasteland 2 which I'd put off buying for some reason (already have Witcher 2). Yay! I am really excited about this game, though, which is why I pledged. I remember some long Bard's Tale sessions with my friend in college back in '90 or so... We hadn't seen much like it as a computer game before that.
