OK i recently heared about this kickstarter project on another off topic forum:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1473965863/sui-generis
(watch the video)
I'm not quite sure what to think about it... What is show in the video on the kickstarter site is certainly shiny, and if it will be (even partly) like that in the finished game it will at least look awesome and epic (especially combat)
I decided to back it with the 10£ because i really like the vision of those guys
Eventhough i would still like to hear a bit more about some things. Mainly character developement and combat, though it seems that the next 2 updates should cover this 2 themes.
What i especially liked from the first update and the main page (and i really hope they'll be able to deliver it):
-"You will find yourself in a large open world that you can explore freely. "
-"The world is carefully designed to be believable and have a life of its own. It is not there to wait for you to go on quests, trigger events or make decisions. Events will take their course and may take a turn for the worse if you don't get involved."
-"Death will not be hard to come by and carries consequences, and there is no saving and loading. The game will put you in situations where trying to get out alive may be your only concern. We believe this is important to keep the game exciting. What's a game if you can't lose?"
Though what i fear most, is that they might be to ambitious for their first project... IMHO even with some 'lesser' goals they could still provide an awesome RPG experience... Thats the main reason i don't think i'll pledge more, with a lesser goal both money wise and mechanically i would be slightly more confident.
What do you guys think about this project?
