Wasteland 2 Kickstarter reaches $2 million in funding

Posted By | On 06th, Apr. 2012

Wasteland 2 Kickstarter is almost successful with over $2 million funded and there are 40,970 backers for the project. Project creator Brian Fargo has explained in the Kickstarter page what will happen if the project reaches $2.5 million.

“This will not only increase the overall size and depth of the world, but it translates to more story lines and more player options as well,” Fargo wrote.

“At this funding level we would also bring more level scripters in to allow us to get levels in faster. When we get levels in faster it allows more iteration time to really hone things in. I believe that iteration time is the single most important factor towards shipping a polished and deep game.

“In addition, we will add more NPC portraits and equipment artwork as per what the fans have requested in the forums. We would also increase the music budget to allow Mark Morgan to layer in even more atmosphere. The bottom line is that this kind of budget ensures that Wasteland 2 is BIGGER than Wasteland 1.”
