    Hmm, if hired party members would't have any personalities, what's the point in them? Would they be a part of game economics system, like in JA? I'd better create my own 7 party members instead, and give them names, roles and personalities myself.

    NPCs will certainly have personalities (though how deeply characterized they will be is as yet unknown)

    All the butthurt just because there would't be any voice acting envolved then?

    No, I don't think it has anything to do with voice acting. This guy assumes that since this is a game where you generate a full party at the beginning, it is therefore an ICEWIND DALE CLONE, where nobody in the party has anything to say to each other (that's what he means by "mute")

    He's either ignoring the existence of non-generated NPCs, or he doesn't think they'll be deep enough for him

    This. Too many people saw the words "Fallout" and instantly assumed it'd be a 2D version of New Vegas or whatever, or want every RPG to follow the BioWare formula. If you're not going to read into the game before you buy it then that's your own goddamn fault. This guy needs to be knocked down a peg or two and go back to his Lovers' Lab mods.

    Ah, lost soul then.
    Landscape fanart is beautiful by the way. I'd actually hoped they would go for drawing stuff instead of utilising 3D engine..

    This was such a sade tale. He pledged $250 and he didn't even know what he was pledging for. And he's not a lone case I'd imagine.

    You know, Kickstarter should implement some sort of IQ test/reading comprehension test for people before they push that final 'submit' button, so that cases like this can be avoided in the future.

    I'm not sure why everybody has decided he pledged 250. Couldn't it have been just 50?

    Dunno, he could've pledged $1 for all we know. $250 is the sum everyone else has been throwing around so...

    Drawing stuff means what here? Fallout, IE games, ToEE, etc. were not drawn, they used images created from 3D models.

    Johannes, IE games, fixed isometric 2D landscape. Oh and animated characters/NPC/monsters instead of polygonal ones.

    We're the disciples and keepers of the Church of Fallout, guardians against those who've come to trivialize and distort the true image of One Game that gave us faith into the idea of something more.

    Pushed around by thin appearances and false idols, blood splatter and grave-voiced protagonists squinting menacingly - "you know you want to be ME", one must not lose sight of true virtue.

    Do not bow down and settle. Do not let yourself forget. Because there will be a second coming. And the believers shall be rewarded.

    Speak for yourself, faggot. We of the Protestant Church of Skyway say no game is sacred, everything is shit. Some are merely less shit than others.

    "instead of utilising 3D engine."

    Pre-rendered is basically "drawn" in this context, they do artistic touch-up that wouldnt be possible in a realtime 3D enviroment.
