The Bard's Tale IV on Kickstarter

100k short of the goal now with 31 days to go and initial stretch goals announced, with the promise of more footage in the coming days :)

'Stretch Goals
Another question was regarding stretch goals. Where are they? We certainly have a number planned and ready but we like to see where a Kickstarter is going. Now that we’re comfortably heading to being fully funded we can no longer resist giving you a sneak peek!

At $1.3 million, we will add an enhanced companion NPC system and add 2 more CNPCs, including Lioslaith the Shadow, a legendary Spear Daughter of the matriarchical Fichti people, the dark haired, woad-painted nature worshippers who live in the deep forests far to the northwest of Skara Brae.

With this enhanced companion NPC system, all recruitable NPCs will have unique personalities and backstories which will open up interesting side content and add rich and surprising reactivity to your adventure. In addition, these CNPCs will voice their thoughts and asides, giving their take on the people, places and events that you encounter as your party moves through the world. No two CNPCs are alike and they carry their own reputations with them. While they can add some additional firepower to your party, some might even get you into more trouble than you were expecting…'

I wonder if it will be like the last one with the humor. I was tempted to buy that on gog.com but the top down view ruined the game after watching a gameplay vid of it. Shame.

If this new game fixes the camera, has the same humor and voice over included and basic sillyness included and real time fighting and light on rpg elements i might grab it.

I did like the last one, but personally I would prefer a move back to the game's roots. Classic dungeon crawling.
