Damnnnn Obsidian collabo! If isn't well over $2.1 million when time starts running out I'm definitely gonna bump my contribution from $15 to $100.

Personally, I'm glad that Obsidian's help is purely design and hopefully, writing, since that's what they're excellent at. They're absolutely, completely shithive awful at nearly everything else, so hopefully this collab gives us a game with great gameplay and excellent writing, and not one or the other.

jesus christ dial back the hyperbole a bit, there's not even any basis for saying this

Who are we talking about here, Leland? Marburgh? Explain not just who but how. I've only done one playthrough so far.

Get off the internet and start playing.

No, they announced that they will hire Obsidian if they get another half-million dollars. If they don't get the additional money, Obsidian won't be involved. I don't think Obsidian's involvement should be held hostage when there's already enough extra money to cover the licensing fees and wages for bringing them in. To put it a different way, imagine the kickstarter somehow fails to break 2 million (I know, but pretend, okay). I would be annoyed that Brian Fargo would leave Obsidian out entirely instead of dipping into the original "world building" fund so that Obsidian could help out with the world building, too.

Oh do you have the figures on how much those licensing fees and wages would cost? Please share.

I can understand having an aversion to the Fallout 3 engine but why would it turn you off the second game and not the first? Illogical.

I would probably pay extra money to just have Obsidian not be involved. The last thing we need is another KotoR 2 cliffhanger

Dumb terrible post by an idiot.

Reading up on it even on the F:NV wiki, they don't even have an explanation for it. We could fix that, you know.

Aight I bumped my pledge to $30.

Also, everyone: the dollar sign goes BEFORE the number. C'mon.
