Brad McQuaid AMA

[drktmplr12]

How can you guys get upset that concrete details aren't available? The game is still in the preliminary planning stages. They don't even have concept art yet and you guys are complaining about his short answers..

This AMA is a planning/development tool (crowdsourcing, we do it here). He can't spend 10 minutes on each response if he wants everyone's questions/concerns to get addressed. I promise you he will log all of the AMA and use it for development. That's why I think his answers are shorter.. he wants the community to discuss. For me, his answers are fine.. They tell me exactly what I want to know: when is beta planned, epic quests, meaningful travel, meaningful groups, no quest hubs, corpse runs, less levels but more advancement per level, combat pacing, etc.

He is obv. using reddit to spread the word, which is exactly what he should be doing at this point. They need funds to develop further. With the business model they are running, they will be answering to the KS community and not corporate because that's who they plan to fund it. Projects like these will take longer. However, they also will (should) be more what players are looking for, which is why people generally will help by donating.
