Either way it's going to be years late and people are going to be (justifiably) angry as gently caress. If delaying the KS a little more to change the system would make him feel better about it I say go for it.

I felt a little bad for the guy because the comments are mostly people who backed to savage the KS, but:quote:Some of the other drawings may look crude to the untrained eye, but were done professionally for the purposes of video rendering, which you will only get to see if we reach our funding goal. This is a kickstart for serious investors , quote:NullPunkt. you remind me of the bullies I used to know in school, and you speak about the same, if you want to be my editor I’m not going to pay you because I don’t like your attitude. You display your ignorance like a peacock. I’m not publishing the comment section you moron, and all it would have taken to correct the script was to say that in th first place. You obviously have some mental aggression issues that would be better taken out in person, and really you should try it sometime, stick your finger in an electric socket, and make the world. A better place “Good times.” Go back to high school and graduate football please...

potatocubed posted:I think Ettin did some research a while back and discovered that there had been at least one Cthulhu-themed Kickstarter running at every point for the past five years or so. Here it is! (It only covers a 3-year period and I haven't kept it updated, though.) "Cthulhu-themed" includes poo poo like children's books and sports wear (?) and a rubber duck (??) so I think eventually you will be able to have an entire Cthulhu-themed house if you backed enough projects.

The best Lovecraftian games are the ones that take the premise and try to do something new with it, like Delta Green or The Laundry or CthulhuTech.

Antivehicular posted:1. "CisHet lesbian?" Like, "PCs will assume she's hetero but she's not," or like "the person who wrote this isn't 100% clear on what 'cishet' means and using it as synonymous for 'normal'?" I'm guessing the latter. According to the video, "Surface" is what other people assume they are based on surface readings/typical biases while Story is what they truly are. It's an interesting idea, though I'm not sure how I feel about "spree shooting fantasies"

Jedit posted:Given that the wild card shows all the different kinds of robot but is called "LGBTQIA+", I would wager money that the game was originally called "Queer Apocalypse" or some such and the players were competing to turn the most people gay. None of the action cards shown are robot-related. Someone's got issues

This is incredibly funny to me because it's meant to be a "gateway product" for people new to RPGs. Imagine having a friend tell you he's going to introduce you to role-playing games and he pulls this out

Subjunctive posted:It was about as major as was possible for them, but their policy is to not hold on to much sensitive stuff and their practices were decent (bcrypt), so without knowing how the attacker compromised them it’s hard to say how bad a sign it is. Sounds like it could be a... fiasco

I don't check KS update emails a lot so I've only just noticed that the ADOM KS folded. The creator is open and honest about why and is issuing refunds though (just got mine ) so there's that. Shame it didn't happen, but out of all the failed Kickstarters I've backed I like this one the most.

MK159 posted:The SCP RPG seems to be a second edition of the CreepyPasta RPG written by the same people, based on the blurry character sheet posted on the Kickstarter page. It's a pretty rough game in that form, with things like three simultaneous skill growth systems, and in terms of how it's tuned so characters pretty much are doomed to go insane in a session or two, or die almost instantly in a fight. It also has an essay about how you're running the game wrong if you're not basically loving with players for trying to solve your mystery. The drama cards are a new wrinkle, though, I guess to represent that SCP agents are supposed to be more competent than random teenagers with youtube channels. I can't see it being a good fit, though. So I was curious and I looked into the Drama Card thing. Their DTRPG publisher page includes a sci-fi game called Spaceship Architect that also uses Drama Cards, and it has a Facebook page where previews of the cards were posted. They just say poo poo like this: quote:
Which kind of seems like Fate Points with cards to me. I didn't pick up the final game though, because the layout is genuinely difficult to read (huge, unedited paragraphs of text in a cramped all-caps font, white on a black page) and I wasn't going to back this anyway. I like the core concept of this KS, but the more I actually look into it the less I want it. So it's definitely an SCP thing at least

Frozen Peach posted:Do people actually watch Kickstarter videos? We're working on the one for my upcoming game and I'm super excited about it, but I can't help but wonder how many eyes it's going to have. Checking the dashboard for the Hard Wired Island KS: the video was played 3,158 times, 36.83% (1163 times) all the way to the end. I don't know how many of those converted into pledges, but it definitely didn't hurt.

Some of the newer comments are alleging that a few big backers were pressuring the creator to sign over his business to them and spammed reports to shut the KS down when he refused. Don't know if you can get a KS taken down that way but
