Just because Renz is a mod doesn't mean that he should have expert knowledge on all LGS games and all the post-LGS projects. And what's wrong with EvilSpirit's detailed and excellent answer, anyway? :p
Before I was made a mod, the admins handed me, like, all this literature I was supposed to check out detailing the history of LGS, Origin, and the like. There were flowcharts in it and everything. It was kinda cool looking.
...didn't read it. :mad:

“This isn’t Looking Glass 2.0,” he says, even though Looking Glass 2.0 seems like a hell of a good thing to be. “We’re not just looking back and trying to recreate something from the past. We’re hoping to be part of the future."
"RPGs can be demanding on the player. In Underworld, you’re not playing a single character, not even a character like Garrett the thief, we give you freedom to approach scenarios however you choose to. We’re not going to tell you how to play this game.”

I'm afraid you're not going to like where the flow-chart leads to from that decision ;)

Update 7: (

Some nice descriptions of the environment, factions, and creatures; and a new video, with Tim pointing out that unscripted experiences are cool; Chris using some convenient props to talk about being a good (or bad) neighbour (or maybe he just couldn't make it to the office); and a bit of additional gameplay footage as well.

I thought it ended up with you all giving me a lot of money or something.

66% funded! Underworld is the "project of the day" on the front page of (
https://www.kickstarter.com/) Kickstarter. It's on track to beat yesterday's pledges.

Blah. Looks like the heady rush days are now over. It looks like its now averaging about $15k a day, give or take. This is far from being bad, because it's just about guaranteed to hit its goal even at this slower rate, but it doesn't look like we'll be getting an editor.
Man. I really wanted an editor.

Currently it looks like it'll end up in the 900k range, but with some serious effort, people spreading awareness, raising pledges, etc, it's still possible. A select number of KS projects have managed to reach higher goals even if it didn't look that way in the beginning.

There is usually a final rally, where people who had not committed yet throw in their pledges, and that can cause a quick jump in funding. But it looks very risky. I really hope they will release an editor, even if it isn't 100% clean and functional.
