Thx. I really don't know either. One of the Devs could probably chime in and give us an idea.

@Quaid- Starting this month, 2 Pantheon gods a month will be released.

Sidenote-Ogres are going to be so fucking big in game. heh

I don't think any of us care until they actually have a pre-alpha version to show people... let alone secure enough funding to actually finish this thing.
Exactly... I hardly even read the thread anymore simply because they have lost any and all creditability until they have some to show off. Seriously, how do they even expect to garner any attention with games like ESO, Landmark, H1Z1, Archeage, etc., regardless if you like them, at least showcasing actual footage, streams, etc.

Pantheon is non-existent at this point and I cannot even remember the last time I visited their site. I guess it really doesn't matter and people who want to follow and support, then good for them, I applaud their intentions of wanting something we all probably want but are willing to have more faith than I do. I just cannot people they continue to attempt to generate hype with such small fragments. They should crawl in a hole or cave and not come back out until they really have something so they can redeem themselves.

Looks like the project has been put on ice until they can get investment. Demo is done, sounds like we will see it, but that's what they will be showing to investors.

Theres a shock. And the obvious conclusion is right around the corner. Brads already disappeared into hiding. Way to take our advice Brad. Good going. Instead of shutting down the Kickstarter and getting your shit together you went full bore ahead right off the fucking cliff. You sir are never to be trusted again.

Brad said any new donations on the site will not be going to the project, so by all means don't donate. That money would be going to keep the site going.

As for the demo.. Who knows. It shows off combat, WW and sunken sanctum

(So everyone knows what Convo is referring to)The end is near:
Pantheon's Financial Situation

Posted by Announcements 8 minutes ago - Filed in Announcement - 7 views

In the past few months we have seen some of the most passion bubble up from the Internet than we have in some time; all for an idea of a game we all want to see happen. It has been an exciting time for all of us.



Over the first month of development through crowdfunding, we?ve been able to achieve what was needed to be done in order to gain investor interest. That is, we?ve shown there is interest in a game like Pantheon, we?ve built the term sheets and business plan, and now have a prototype we can show to potential investors.



The downside now is that our initial resources have depleted, which regrettably means that development is going to slow down until finances can be secured. It?s not something we want to do by any means,but as we cannot guarantee paychecks to the team, they each need to be able to spend time on other things to pay the bills.


Once we?re able to get that level of funding we can then secure much-needed studio space and be able to pick up the pace of production dramatically. We are deeply thankful to this community for getting Pantheon to this critical point, where we have been able to put together an attractive package to present to potential investors.



In the interim, any donations made at this point until further notice will be going directly to maintaining the website during this phase, and not towards development.

So 150k went to a single month of doing the bare bones of a design doc and he, in the beginning, expected to be able to fund a multi year development process via Kickstarter. I think Brad really did expect that he would pull another Star Citizen. He hasn't learned a god damn thing in the years since Vanguard.

That's the craziest thing. They've already spent through the $160,000 which means they paid themselves good for the Kickstarter crap and naturally the rented office was a huge waste of everyone's time and money. Anyone who put money toward the site shoudl have seen this coming.

What's worse to me is he's leaving the site up to act like a Honey Pot to keep scooping in the money. Even with the pittance the project has been earning I'm sure it more than what he would need to keep the site running. A complete and total scam.

I never heard they actually rented an office. Far as I know all they did was pay themselves for fucking doing nothing and now the money dried up Brad is bailing. Typical Brad. I should have known better. Good thing I didn't give his ass a dime.
