Handful of Doom Devs on a leaky kickstarter are gonna save themselves. Exactly!

More Info on the new game by Romero (yes it's still long and shiny) and Carmack

"We're set up in Ireland because the tax is low oh and er nice buildings, yes thats it nice buildings"

I don't blame them I mean why would you set up in a place like the US where the corporate tax rate is ludicrous unless you're a multinational who can legally cheat on your taxes.

Two guys on a project with only few concept drawings, jumping on crowdfunding campaign -- color me sceptical on the delivery side.
Also, quite few peeps out there will recall the Daikatana fiasco, ages ago.

This is Daikatana all over again.

Hopefully they learned from Daikatana. I don't hate Daikatana because it was a bad game. I hate Daikatana because it meant Anachronox never got a chance to be finished.

Yeah you can't be completely disgusted by Ion Storm when they did put out Deus Ex and Anachronox.

Believe it or not Daikatana has a fan base that's still patching it. It has support for modern OSs and widescreen.

Not many of the top developers of the 90s have been able to maintain remain top of the heap & nor maintailn the high standards they set for themselves, given the march of technology, the evolution in game development, evolution of their genres, and the aging of their brains.

Here's hoping they break that trend.

Wow John Romero! I hadn't seen him in ages and he looks AWESOME. I want to be his new BFF.

John Romero's about to make you his BFF

I was reading this during a meeting and it made me laugh out loud

 

[dogen]

Well, they decided to cancel the kickstarter and redo it once they have a demo finished.
