Currently trending towards the modest sum of $31,505,424.

Hahaha, that was quick. It will plummet in pace eventually though, this just shows those who were sold on Project Eternity and Wasteland 2 didn't need to think about funding yet another.

Can't wait for all these games to release. 2014 is gonna feel like fucking Christmas all year long.

Definitely. Unfortunately cant expect to keep up that pace.... it kinda shocked Mr Fargo as well judging by his update. Better churn out those stretch goals :)
And about Christmas yes..:)

@BrianFargo indeed. OUYA crossed in 8 hours and 22 minutes. Torment did it in under 8 hours.

One reason for so much people: Notch tweeted about it and his followers seem to act like a bunch of sheep...

As SV said, it'll probably slow down as time goes by.......but imagine how awesome the game would be with 25+ mil. backing it. 0.o *drools*

It will definitely slow down and a lot. Kicktrq "trending" feature assumes the current pledges rate will be the same for the whole 30 day campaign. The trending value will plummet down as the days go by, but they may still hit a record or two before this is over.

I've been watching this all day. Crazy they are going to have to count overage in hundreds of thousands on the first day. Crazy in a cool way.

Re-read pl0x. ;)

Again, could you imagine how awesome the game would be with even 10+ mil. behind it? *starts daydreaming*

Oh I did read it carefully. I was jus confirming it will slow down significantly. And as to the dream...well tbh, I have a feeling the dream might just turn out to be very close to reality. Looking at the initial rate, I wouldn't be very surprised if this reached between 6 and 8 mln.

If this fucking thing, or any game on KS for that matter, reaches 10 million it will be a whole new ballgame. You will see shit like Psychonauts 2 attempted, or games with real 2005-era production values. Can anyone say Morrowind-esque?

It won't reach 10 million though, lol.

Depends on the voice actors - the right voice can lend depth and strength to words.

Mind-blowing vision.

Chances are it wont ;). But what would it tell the publishers out there? LOL....they would be starting to shit themselves...;)
