Aw, don't tell me Board 8 doesn't recognize ToToMono. You'd better recognize, b8.

Class of Heroes was pretty cool.

I think this is kind of ridiculous, though.

I hear Kickstarter uses AmazonPayments. Does that mean I can buy an Amazon gift card and have it transferred to Kickstarter? If so, I'm so in for $20.

$500,000 for a physical release of a sequel to a mediocre game that's already getting localized and with no half-decent rewards for contributing?

Yeah, no. Not every project can be the next Double Fine Adventure/Wasteland 2.

On their own website it says you can be a character in the game for $50,000. Aw yeah.

The price for being a character in Wasteland 2 was $1,000.

And there should've at least been a reward that gets you a digital download of the game between the $20 and $59 marks.

Yeah, that would've been great for me since I have Vita and can only download it. Oh well.

Heard about this earlier today and thought it was a dumb idea, looked at the actual details and knew it was a really dumb idea.

Also here's an article about the problems, even: http://gamasutra.com/blogs/RobertBoyd/20120328/167405/A_Kickstarter_Without_a_Cause__Class_of_Heroes_2.php

A kickstarter to throw money away? DD is the best distribution method for an obscure game. It saves money and ensures those that want the game can obtain a copy.

This is what I keep saying, but for some reason internet trolls keep hating on DD-only games. See: xseed's announcement of Unchained Blades.

I would help if they gave away a DD code for one of the rewards, as a UMD release is pointless with the Vita out. No reason to contribute to this at the moment.
