Best game series ever. So glad Ragnar finally got away from Funcom, since it was clear that they had no interest in ever completing the series themselves.
By the way, don't watch that video (or read the entire Kickstarter page) if you have managed to make it to 2013 without having played TLJ and Dreamfall, but you still desire to repent your heresy before it's too late. Massive spoilers abound.

The VO in the games was always extremely well done as well.
I said at the very least!
Finally, one of the best gaming series is being continued!
This is the first kickstarter that gets my money.

TLJ was amazing, Dreamfall puzzles were way too easy and the "combat" was pretty terribad but the story was fucking good. I am all over this to see a sequel.

Not sure what you mean. Both the original cd version from 2000 and the GOG version work fine in Windows 7. At most you should only have to edit the preferences.ini file and maybe fiddle with your video card control panel until it scales the game properly with black bars on the sides to maintain the correct aspect ratio.
Eh, I think we've been waiting quite long enough for an ending to the story. Remaking TLJ so that it is no longer 640x480 would involve a tremendous amount of work on the art assets, and the only thing wrong with Dreamfall is that the game design had to work around shitty xbox hardware, resulting in tons of shoebox-size maps. Not much could be done there either really.
Also, Red Thread doesn't have the rights to do anything with TLJ or Dreamfall anyway.

There are a lot of problems for people running Win7 64 bit and people who, for some odd reason, are on laptops. I have both of those problems.
I did buy it on Steam so maybe that is the issue... I'll have to check out the GOG version and see if it's any different.
I have it on steam and im using windows 7 on a desktop and it runs fine. I did have a pointer that was ... oddly shaped but it didnt prevent me from clicking items and/or combining them. I am not that far in though, so maybe its something later in the game?

Originally the game worked fine for me except for the fact that none of the cutscenes worked... which I thought was pretty important. After adjusting a number of settings recommended by a shit ton of different posts out there, including disabling nvidia 3d, using integrated graphics only, messing with the display options, changing the power options, editing preferences.ini, running the game in Win XP compatibility mode, etc. etc. etc., I've completely fucked the installation to the point where it won't even boot up now. Keeps giving me some Steam cannot be found error even after uninstalling and reinstalling both the game and Steam.
it works fine on my desktop just like it does for you. But there is some weird combination of specs that produce this comedy of errors and if you check the Steam forums, a lot of people have the problem too.
