On the topic at hand, I'm surprised they still need Kickstarter funding. Was ATOM not that successful, or was Swordhaven that much of a flop? :scratch-pipe:

I think most of them don't want to have any convo's screen capped or shared by the fans of better or more engaging and immersive ideas that make them look bad or "show them up" creatively that they should have thought of themselves.

Because chudcels are known to be picky bastards, who also tend to engage in piracy. No one cares about chuds when unwashed paypiggies exist.

They have no business seriously starting up developing another game with the current one only about 80% finished.
But I suppose it's an economic issue for them.

There's infinte money for sportstard and competitive gun-autist ********, but one of the last real RPG makers has to get by on scraps.
You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.
Reject your retarded-wing political programming and learn to think.

Both.
No flops, but no big sales, either.
Also: free money.

Those stretch goals look wildly optimistic. They are yet to hit their minimum sum after a whole day.

ATOM RPG is/was underpriced, I've told the team as much.

Can't wait for the ATOM enhanced edition, Trudograd added a lot of cool stuff and I'm sure they've worked on other cool stuff for 2. :bounce:

I tried to play DOS2 in coop and my friend didn't want to read any dialogue so we just rushed thru everything and it was a bit miserable, but it appears a lot of people enjoy playing these coop.

You're right, I just don't associate top-down view games with 3D. I should have said "3rd person view". :wise: Wonder if the dialogue will be up close too, akin to BG3

that's just the angle they've picked for the promotional video. It'll keep the same camera from the previous Atom games.
