Now I miss internets.

Brad thinks 8 million can make the game he wants to make, so that's the ultimate goal I think. He posted it somewhere on this thread.

It has a playable alpha google project gorgon. It's pretty fun for a weekend, but there isn't much there. Edit: Treesong beat me too it. @TragedyAnn LoL post that shit on reddit/r/mmorpg. If you don't I will.

Yeah, and I backed that as well even though it was AC focused not EQ focused, also it failed to even meet the modest 55k goal. Good people though.

I'd like more combat and class info but at the end of the day I'm still throwing some money at them. I think the odds are against them and we won't see a completed game - thus my choice of 250 pre-alpha tester v. 250 lifetime sub. ;-) @TragedyAnn Yeah I'd pony up for a shirt, but that...

You'll have to kill The Sleeper (Pantheon version) to get that tricksy item.

Cite or link to niche fantasy MMOS that cater to the PvE (not PvP) EQ/VG crowd needed.

Yep. Much, much, much better organization for PE and Hex KS. Well the good newsis since they are only going to get 800ish k, they will have to come back to kickstarter (well maybe) and KS 2.0 will hopefully be much better organized.

Too true.

I recall a lot of tiers on the Obsidian KS but 18 seems like a lot. It's a strange KS all around, normally stretch goals aren't revealed, they're hidden also there are no physical swag tiers. Of course the thing is, those aren't really stretch goals - they are things that need to be in a...

Fair enough, we can agree VG was a terrible release.

I see they lost the 3rd 10k and still haven't added the tester + lifetime sub 400 tier. -_- @Vandyn some of us enjoyed Vanguard.

Second Life -> that way (sorry I can't bear to link, even as a joke). @Whidon et. al. Yeah, they need some 2k, 5k tiers for the Whales.

They will need additional funding to complete. There is no guarantee they will get it. All you can do is hope and help out if there is a second round of kickstarter.

I think Brad got it - I hammered at this issue for a while - he has said they are looking for a CEO to replace the chair ;-) I assume that like the game itself, the CEO is going to depend on the kickstarter. Hard to get someone to run the company if there isn't one.

yeah, there actually is a place for some procedurally generated content in an EQ world and water is a good place for it. Sail around and find some literally uncharted isle with a panda pirate on it, that you'll never be able to find again.

Heh, yeah I wish they would fix them

Yeah not good. It's a long weekend, people are home and can surf the net. Info not getting out as fast and as far as it needs to go.

As if there would be other options in 2017 besides Pantheon for people who want to play "that" type of game, and if BLP doesn't get funded I doubt there will be any options unless SOE decides to do one more go of the Progression servers...

They just added 300 slots.

They've said they're looking for a CEO. Tough to find one who will work for absolutely nothing.

Surprised at no weekend update. Insert SNL video here.

Nobody should be handed ribbons. Might be a moot point, KS isn't making enough money right now per day to fund.

Is a mini ice age on the way? Scientists warn the Sun has 'gone to sleep' and say it could cause temperatures to plunge | Mail Online Mini Ice Age incoming. FuckingObamaSun!

I'll add that it makes the reward more rewarding. Who wants a ribbon that someone hands you for "being a good guy"? No one, you throw that out immediately. But getting a little trophy for placing 1st or 2nd in a race against a bunch of other people, well that trophy goes on your shelf.

Yeah but good management is important. Sigil/VG failed to deliver a near bug free game at release because of bad management. You can have the best idea in the world but if you can't execute on it - you've got problems. Obviously I support pantheon, but the KS page is something that should...

Yeah, I deserved lumps from Draegen, because Hartsman's PM skills are undeniable. And yeah I agree with you that would be a dream team pairing of the "get this shit done" guy and the "come up with the good shit to get done" guy.

I think it's fair to assume their will be a mix of open-world and instanced raiding in the game. I just don't care that much because I like the leveling/grouping game far more than raiding. It's why I liked VG more than EQ or WoW - it had the most fun and most varied leveling content. You...

That stings I'll agree that Hartsman can get stuff completed - I just though Rift was bland on bland on bland. I mean Two factions really? Quest hub's with horrible multi-quests? Thing is, I really wanted to like that game. Anyway, work calls...

So every sport ever is a bad idea? Football? Poker? Tic-tac-toe? Humans are a competitive species, if you want to tar all of us with the "aspie sociopath" brush, go ahead, but you'll end up tarring 80% of every guy ever (and a lot of girls too). Sure there are other reasons to play EQ...

I think the current issue with the tiers (and others have noted this) is that with the additional unlimited tiers the later tiers that say things like "all previous tiers included" don't make a hell of a lot of sense, read literally it would include multiple digital downloads. They need to...

Pretty much this, but I think the numbers are 4 to 5m for basic game, 6.7 for game on ks, and 8m for the game brad wants to make (he gave 8m number last night)

You offered me a word of advice, so I'll return the favor, though I doubt you'll listen. You don't understand the world, at least not in the way you think you do. Things don't get accomplished by people who "are neutral". Things get accomplished by people who are willing to get fanatical...

EQMac.com View forum - Everquest General Discussion I already posted there, but really, if you happen to know Hobart he was quasi-guilded with Temerity, he's the guy who would have the most success reaching out to that crowd, IMHO.

Yes, you've just been "accidentally" post stalking me all day

There's a reason people can get behind. I'm convinced that the EQMac people will save us. They're a broken hearted mess of at least 200 people who have neither a game or a server, to bad Hobart isn't on the Pantheon team. He could pied piper all of them to pledge for Pantheion.

I'll need a cite

Well, then don't contribute. Thanks for playing.

Pick One: 1. The world ends if Pantheon isn't funded, that's the word from Above. 2. All the cool kids are doing it. 3. Brad will put in a god named Dollerer Hketus if you contribute, maybe.

Okay, I'll bite: I am a blind fan boy. Do you feel better? I hope so, as it's a lovely Friday. You probably shouldn't read too much into a single post: I beta'd Rift and SWTOR, passed on the TESO beta because of the thread here, played DCUO to level cap (fun, until you got to level cap) and...
