Given the current amount of money they have raised, it seems possible that this is not even going to reach the kickstarter goal.
Then there is the issue that Brad has some bad addictions, and a track record of screwing up stuff. Wether they are related, I am unsure.
Brad left EQ in the early 2000's, and has since only released "Vanguard: Saga of 2 much brown", which was a complete failure at launch and never recovered. Vanguard barely survived its trainwreck launch, and only could so after Sigil sold it dirt-cheap to SoE - who promtely demoted Brad out of any influential role. Brad had full control over Vanguard, yet it launched as a total failure, not the EQ sequel we all hoped it to be. He already failed at remaking EQ guise. This should be obvious.
I'm gonna pass, but I am willing to bet plat this game will vaporware.
In fact I'd go yolo-all-in-elbow-deep on that bet.
