I don't get it either. But maybe people's expectations of kickstarters have changed since then? Anyway, I backed it. I'd back anything by Doublefine so I'm glad it's also something that sounds like a really cool game.
-
Is there any chance that they could maybe do an episode for people that are new to the game? It would be cool to hear their input on what new people should do to learn the game. Then again there's probably a billion guides for people new to the game so I would understand them not wanting to cover it.

The website for the game has a fake store that offers this on vinyl and cassette. I actually want the soundtrack to have a vinyl release
-
Not that I expected Lucasarts to do anything good any time soon but this still sucks. I don't see Disney selling off the properties or rereleasing their old games. I hope I'm wrong though.

Does anyone want to discuss this gameplay video with me?
Lechimp replied to clyde's topic in Video Gaming
I wish he stuck with the open world thing instead of basically making interactive movies. Maybe Heavy Rain was much better and allowed for more variation from choices than Fahrenheit though. More games should also have David Bowie. -
I'm MechaTofuPirate on Origin. I'd like to play in the ThumbCity too.

Idle Thumbs 97: The Dash Rendar Synergy
Lechimp replied to Chris's topic in Idle Thumbs Episodes & Streams
It's probably for the best that Suh wasn't on Wild and Crazy Kids or else kids would have ended up in the hospital. -
I partially agree. It's much harder for new games to get funding but there's still stuff like FTL, Sportsfriends, and Kentucky Route Zero that managed to get funding, even if it wasn't in the millions. But it makes sense, people are more likely to fund something that is likely to be good and it's harder to predict that when it's something new or an unknown developer. That said, I think Wildman mostly failed because it wasn't that great of a pitch and Taylor announced a couple of days in the kickstarter that he had to lay the team off and he could only hire them back if the kickstarter was successful.

Idle Thumbs 97: The Dash Rendar Synergy
Lechimp replied to Chris's topic in Idle Thumbs Episodes & Streams
Actually I only know because I looked up the game on wikipedia after listening to the podcast. "A short scene before the credits show Luke and Leia on Tatooine, mourning Dash's death. If the game is beaten on the Medium, Hard, or Jedi difficulty levels, this is followed by one more scene of Dash and Leebo, who had managed to escape the blast, discussing how they plan on hiding from their enemies, with Dash saying, "It's good to be remembered as a martyr without actually being dead, wouldn't you say?"" Games are dumb. -
Idle Thumbs 97: The Dash Rendar Synergy
Lechimp replied to Chris's topic in Idle Thumbs Episodes & Streams
Ugh, everyone knows that if you beat Shadows of the Empire at a high enough difficulty, Dash Rendar survives. Come on thumbs, get your facts straight! -
The only thing I would like to see is new characters. Not that I disliked the characters from the original or anything but I'd really like to see another contained story instead of more adventures of the people that survived the first game. As long the sequel has the same style of gameplay and the writing is at least as good as the first, then I'll be happy with it. I'm actually more interested in Fables right now since I love the comic and I want to see how that translates to a game.
-
I'm cautiously optimistic. I was a big fan of the original games and always thought of it as the good version of Heroes 4.
-
So this could have 2 million within 24 hours. That's pretty insane and awesome.
-
Should someone create a region so we can have up to 16 people from here playing in the same city? That would be cool. Feel free to add me on Origin: MechaTofuPirate

Portable Pinball Wizardy - Dreams and Fantasies in your phone!
Lechimp replied to ThunderPeel2001's topic in Video Gaming
Have you ever played Pinball Arcade for iOS/Android/PS3/360? They do a really good job recreating real life pinball machines. I have it for the x-box 360 and it pisses me off because the publisher of that version went under so it's way behind on DLC releases until the game is rereleased next month. However the iOS version apparently isn't having those issues so it's worth checking out on there. -
On the bright side, it could be introducing games like Journey and Walking Dead to people who traditionally only care about stuff like Halo or Call of Duty.

I can't wait until the next episode of Idle Thumbs for this to be discussed. Congrats guys!

Idle Thumbs 86: Always Support the Danger Layer
Lechimp replied to Jake's topic in Idle Thumbs Episodes & Streams
Fair enough. I had a different interpretation from it and thought it was cool how player movement was used as a metaphor. I felt like the game was more about how life is rewarding in different ways depending on if you're on your own or with someone else. When the game allows you to control two people at once, you're unable to access many parts of the maze but you gain points twice as quickly from walking. Anyway, that's just what I got from it and I could see disliking the game by having other interpretations from it. -
Idle Thumbs 86: Always Support the Danger Layer
Lechimp replied to Jake's topic in Idle Thumbs Episodes & Streams
Why not? I thought it was a really good selection and felt like the game that belonged the most in a museum of modern art, not that the other ones don't. -
Easily my GOTY. Good work Jake and Sean! I'm glad the game has been a huge success and has allowed Telltale to expand.
-
It's possible that it could make the goal. Some kickstarters have made some pretty crazy comebacks
-
I'd also join a Thumbs guild if someone made one.
-
That sounds awesome. I guess I have a reason to start playing TF2 again.
-
So it looks like he probably won't make it, which is too bad because I think it's a pretty cool idea. I just think he isn't too good at marketing or making a kickstarter that appeals to people that go to the site.
-
Well that and the beginning of Serious Sam 3 was actually pretty awful. The game picks up later on. Sounds like you're just not a fan of that kind of gameplay though.
