@Prometheus I wanted to see if it would be possible for you to provide us with a timeframe for when the KS will start. With limited tiers on some potentially hot items, I don't want to miss out, or have to play f5 bandit for the day. Please, please, consider providing us with a window to expect it going live.
Ultimately just waiting for additional information. There's still plenty of time to pledge, and making up my mind about which tier is hard. I think more information will help resolve this.
Oh, I'm definitely on the CoE boat with my bro @Esoba
Excellent overview, and I'm kind of digging the idea of elections. Although, I hope y'all iterate on the length between. Just a couple weeks IRL is really short. Maybe every quarter or so.
An interesting idea. I kinda like it. Well as long as both good and evil had equally awesome aesthetics.
Completely agree with taverns and places to wager a little bet. If there is no LFG tool, than I believe taverns could also play an important role in meeting up for questing or maxing out those abilities.
@coolburn Agree. No main AH. That really does cut down on travel.
After reading the update, I am changing my mind a bit and I believe I'm ok with VIP.
I don't see what they have announced for this game to be anywhere near p2w. I may get flack but honestly I'm sick and tired of p2w turning into this term that is attached to anything and everything the minute an alternative funding stream is announced. A quote I heard about another term, but also applies to this, "never has a term went from obscurity to irrelevance as quickly" as p2w. Now I heard folks crying "p2w! p2w!" and it means absolutely nothing. Sure there have been games that have been truly p2w, but many that are called that now a days aren't. Heck I haven't been able to throw tons of money at some games and yet I still achieve more than folks who drop thousands. Just my 2 cents.
Still got some faith with the KS, but starting to get a bit worried that it'll cross the finish line. Even if we count on a last day as strong as the first day, while still getting the average we have got each day (not counting day 1), we won't quite make it. Hopefully that trend gets bucked and we start having an uptick, but these middle days haven't led to too much growth.
How much time, effort, resources, will be required to upkeep different sized buildings?
I will admit being surprised by the number of backers as well. However, I kinda chop it up to KS fatigue, along with development game fatigue. Plus, there's always the problem of getting the information to the right people who want a game like this. That's sometimes that hardest thing of all.
