This thing is entering its last days if any of you are interested and haven't pledged yet.

Over 4 million, including the Payal pledges.

Yeah that was the goal we really needed for this thing to be a worthy successor.  That crazy underwater desert city was a nice bonus as well.  The pledges are just shooting up today though.  We may hit another one.

So with Paypal pledges, they raked in $4.3M and are now the most funded games project ever on Kickstarter. They've already hinted that with the expansion of the project through stretch goals they will probably take longer than the December 2014 target date.

They say writing for Wasteland 2 is finished, and coding can begin; the writers will now turn to Numenera.

Reviews so far seem very positive, warning that this is less of a combat RPG and more about choice.

Indeed which is exactly what I would want from a Torment game.

Enjoyed the first 30 minutes or so. Much more immersive than Pillows of Mediocrity.

I managed to kill myself before I even got really started!  My first start ended in my death before I even saw anything :)

I have a concern that one choice might be distinctly better than the others, based on the teaser gameplay.  You can't really tell that in advance, though.

Saw the same thing in fallout 2.  You didn't really get to see the best stuff until the guides came out and told you the right sequences and choices.
