    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I feel like their intentions (and I think it may have been stated) are that every stretch goal actually happens. Get the initial $800,000, actually have something created, then get someone to back the rest of the project. Right now, I don't see why SOE would publish it. They've published some...

    You could always poke your head into the Project Pantheon boards and say hi, Brad. Not exactly the market you need to sell, but there's a lot of enthusiasm there and I'm sure the community would like the nod.

    They really have kicked it into high gear. Ikik dropped by for a post on the player-ran servers over at pjpantheon. Corey seems like a really likable dude, too. Had a few conversations with him on Twitter and our exchanges had me wanting to throw in more money.

    Maybe, but that shit looked pretty cool to me. I'm surprised combat is going to be in at launch, honestly.

    One lady used her daughter to scam everyone. Look up the Truth and Trolls story. I'm not really sure what kind of action you can take, there's been a few complete bust Kickstarters; from not living up to promises to straight up cancellations. In this case, most of these guys have a reputation...

    If the goal is met, the money is theirs. If it's $799,999.99 the project is unsuccessful and no money is distributed.

    Ceythos seems like an awesome dude and does seem like the team is listening. Nice to have him posting around these parts. Great to see the project stretch beyond the 100K mark, even if it's mostly because someone dropped the big $10,000 hammer.

    With all respect to the VR team, I don't understand the "we're only 10 people" logic. I get that it's awesome to have avid supporters help push the word, but the truth is you're 10 people on the Internet whose entire life right now should be pushing Pantheon in every direction. Your network is...

    I feel like week two or three will be telling. I assumed by the first day or two it'd be an easy read but Pantheon is throwing off my radar. Ideally it'll get beyond $110K today and I think rehauling the Kickstarter page over the next week should bring in more contributors. I continue to pull...

    I know fitting physical items into a budget is hard (just ask Double Fine) but is it too much to ask for a cloth map and a sack of stupid marbles we can call rune orbs? Also, make the soundtrack available via download.

    A relaunch would surely kill it. It's got some huge hurdles ahead and while I don't think it was too early to launch if they had everything ready to take Kickstarter by storm, I do think it's too early based on what they've put on the table. I think there are a few glaring flaws that are going...

    Because of the imaginary money that deducts from your bank account before the project ends?

    Yeah, it's totally true. Time after time these projects have to update like 20 times a day with all new promises to get across their goal. Use a little bit of logic. The anticipation is building and all those people run through the gates. Sustaining that burst is impossible, you just have to...

    Currently sitting on $45 with intentions to go up, I just wanted to reserve my alpha spot. This thing needs to stop hopping along though. $25K is nice, but the first day or so is when people typically dump the big money in. You can't back on having to come close to that same amount every day for...

    I think that's the way a lot of people are feeling (or would feel if they knew about Pantheon). That's why the Kickstarter needs to launch and from the sounds of it, they've actually got content to show which is more than a lot of projects. It's time to put up or shut up or something cliche like...

    Yeah and that's fine once but with each tease people are going to get fatigued about hearing what's coming soon time and time again. The next time Pantheon makes headlines, people will be able to check out the project and actually put some money into it. Edit: Surprised at some of these posts...

    I'm not fooling myself at all. I acknowledge that most of the hype is confined into a thread. I'm simply saying that relative to other Kickstarter projects, the hype is stronger than I expected. Maybe I should have left out substantial, but it's already hit numerous media outlets and there's...

    I feel like the hype is substantial for a Kickstarter game. Maybe I just didn't invest enough time in the others I backed, but all of those hit the site and made noise then. VR should be pretty amped that they've achieved this level of hype prior to having any official press releases.

    Taking something like EQN (not Landmark), I'm OK with procedural generation dictating the looks of a random underground dungeon populated with a set of mobs. From what I recall there will be temporary caverns like that and they'll eventually disappear. That's fine and creates filler content. I'm...

    Vanguard's ocean was so incomplete, it was a big disappointment. Enormous stretches of transparent water and the very limited life in there were basic mobs that did their on land animations, haha. Here's to hoping something treacherous is lurking on Pantheon's waters.

    I think some of you need to understand the differences between setting a priority and random chit chat that's irrelevant to anyone's true concerns. I'm going to take a wild guess and say that tad isn't going to swear this game off if Santa doesn't come to Pantheon on Christmas. Seriously...
