loses just about everything when it's acted out in a cutscene with sound effects, but there's virtually no limit to its impact when it's presented in written form by a good mood writer.

Not well, no. Because it's not just emotion at play here that can be easily delivered via facial expression or voice tone. It's Memories. It's a thought in one's mind. i suppose they could expand the cutscene and play out some cheezy "dream-like" sequence complete with the foggy vision thing, but that's both cliche and cheesy in the extreme.Costin_Razvan wrote...

You're saying as if you can't present emotion like that in a cinematic, you can and it has already been done many many times.

So the argument you're making is kinda pointless. There are some situations that call for cinematics, and many many others where such cutscenes will actually be a detriment.

Yeah I was wondering the same since I've been monitoring the progress pretty steadily all day. Even if it isn't the fastest, I'd say this speaks volumes about the fans and gamers out there who really, really, REALLY want this game.Sister Goldring wrote...
I'm wondering if this is the fastest 1,000,000 has been raised on kickstarter? I think it was about 27 hours to reach the target and under 24 hours for the million.
Anyone know?

Ridiculous. We're all here watching you rant for pages on end about all your "tastes" and "preferences". We see you intensly responding to everyone who quotes you.... yet you're not debating...? Yeah, Ok. So what are you doing, then? Just Spamming this thread with your pointless meanderings?

So bark at the right tree will you.
Not nearly as long or as much as I've delved into Elder Scrolls or Dragon Age Origins. Sorry, I know it might be difficult for you to comprehend, but cinematic games with third person characters- no matter how much I might enjoy them- are ultimately pretty forgettable to me. This is a preference and not something I'm going to debate.Costin_Razvan wrote...
But you do sit around and ponder games like TW2 for weeks on end in regards to story. Cinematics are irrelevant in their own right, but when they serve the story they make the story better. The purpose of TW2 intro for instance wsn't to have an awesome cinematic experience but also to add to Letho as a character, that he is an intimidating badass son of a **** and it did achieve that purpose.
My argument is that a story is good when it has voice acting, cinematics and graphics because they work to serve it, they add an immersive experience to the game's story.
Avellone's been drawing all sorts of scribbled pictures and Josh Sawyer giving the raised eyebrow to the Kickstarter page was hilarious. It's fun to see them excited. They have their work cut out for them so great that they get to enjoy this day. Also they didn't get nearly the kudos they should have for Fallout New Vegas, so it's nice to see the gaming community rectify that.
And this is just in one day! They could break 4 million by October 16, which seems like quite a long way from now.Cultist wrote...
$1,117,465 hell yeah!
BioWare called us a vocal minority, those who hated arcadeness, jRPG and AWESOME BUTTON RPG. Well, looks like vocal minority managed to gather a million $ to support a game they wanted.
To add salt to the injury - that money could be with BioWare, should they not turn to Call of Duty crowd and turn Origins into abominable Dragon Age 2.
Now, looks like BioWare will have some competition in the future.

I rest my case. I have better things to do than to pick your posts apart sentence by sentence and determine which one constitutes "an argument" and which one is decreed by you to be untouchable "taste" and not up for debate <gag>KnightofPhoenix wrote...
All I can tell you is to read properly what I was arguing for, and who I debating with on what presicely.

They'll make a game, but it will likely have almost no cinematics, voice acting and so on, and yes I do consider these important: Alpha Protocol's Halbech betrayal ending would be vastly inferior without it's graphics, cinematic, and voice acting.
I have no interest in pledging for this or buying this.
