July 25th now? I thought this was releasing on the 26th of June? Waiting an entire extra month for this is going to suck.

Yeah they mention in the update about the fans wanting them to take their time to make a good game yada yada yada. Sucks but I guess if its great then its great.

The editor is what I'm most excited about, hoping to see some awesome redone worlds.

I've been distracted of late, but I can honestly say the editor is everything you could hope for and more. Best advice is to work gradually on things in a playground type creation teaching yourself how to do various things bit by bit before diving in and trying to enable a full story.

Some of the best stuff is that you can easily copy/paste pre-built zones for others to use, so someone who is just really good at doing tile-based level construction and lighting could just crank out a bunch of areas complete with window dressing that others can grab and incorporate into their own game.

Noooo I just realized this was pushed back a month, should have checked this thread earlier. So sad, I have been counting down to this one.

So now you like Shadowrun too? There really is getting to be an insurmountable pile of evidence suggesting you're sporting a Y chromosome.

I at least have Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep to hold me over.

Kickstarter backers got their bonus keys to share so that people will be ready to download the second it goes live in 2 weeks. Quite a few changes and updates have been made to the engine following community feedback of those of us who have been playing around with it for several weeks now and the Harebrained team seems quite dedicated to ensuring that this game delivers something pretty special.

I have no idea what their plans are, if any, for post-release content but the community developed stuff should keep things interesting for quite some time.

I talked to someone who did some of the art for the game and he said the beta was really buggy. It sounds like that might have been the reason for the extra month. All will be forgiven if the end product is good.

I am prety sure that this is the first of the old school 1mil+ KS funded games to hit the street. I get the feeling that this will be the litmus test for the future of KS funded games and everything I've seen so far makes me think it is good that this is coming out before Broken Age.

Yeah as we start to see some of the big KS games finally get released this year it'll show whether the investment made was worth it. I normally only donate $20-40 so if they can be as good as games on today's market I feel I've got my money's worth.

They have zero marketing budget, so they are asking people to spread the word:

Already reserve my gaming time for the 25th!

I'm kind of nervous about the looting , from all the vids i saw i never saw any loots , IMO you can't make a good rpg without it.

Where have you seen this stuff? All I have seen so far is some super vague info, would love it if you have more detailed shit.

I've just seen what's on the main page, racial picks, roles and... most importantly...

main man who is behind the pen and paper is fully in control of this. It won't be contaminated with Disney market research or something trying to clone a previous successful mainstream product.

I know Shadowrun's world semi well (never played hardcore but beat SNES version many times as a youth) and I have full faith they will deliver some real pro/con character building with potential to create a fail build if you're not careful. I'm certain it will be a nice "fix" for a while for us purebloods.

More etc then char creation. Watched 5 of the episodes so far. Pretty pumped.

Glad they took that extra month because there was a decent amount of buggy shit happening, though that could be some issues with the fan made mission. Even with those issues this looks amazing.
