completed Reaper Bones 4: Enthusiasm and Commentary Thread

[strawhat]

Welp, while I've been less than enthused about many of the reveals so far (personal taste, not a knock on Reaper), I've got to say that I'm very happy with the Tree of Despair and the Dreadmere expansion.

 

I can't say that I will 100% keep the Dreadmere expansion on my "must buy" list, but it's there right now and I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next for it.

[Crow05]

Nothing much interests me yet beyond the core set. I'm hoping for some nice creatures coming up in the stretch goals.

 

I need something to wow me like the BFG, Mashaaf, or Nethermaul did in the last few. I'm guessing there will be something because there's a lot of time left.

So am I correct, did I hear them say that the chronoscope expansion is done, there will be no more additions? Just trying to figure out what I will budget for and knowing this will help (well budget from here to July 2018 haha).

 

Correct; Reaper has confirmed a few times that the Chronoscope Expansion has only 3 parts.

 

Huzzah!

 Looking at the tree, the space between the rope and chain on the left and right.  It looks like you could hang a victim on each side.  Lots of versatility!

I'm so glad we're getting the tree of ...............!

Very nice!! I guess people really want that tree!

 

 

I think it's both the tree, for those who up their pledge when a goal is announced, and the chronoscope expansion being completed for those who up their pledge when the goal is achieved.

 

I'm very impressed with the new backers added just before the Ding, and the 2K+ hours we have had after the ding. I suspect we will Ding again tomorrow.

Important information about how the pledge manager will work after the project closes has been posted over in the Information thread:

I would also think the new expansion has something to do with it. I wonder if there is really a way to find out what the breakdown is...the PM could be an indicator if it is being utilized and data can be extrapolated from it in some way already.

While I am not an official source, I would say the Chrono. Expansion is complete.  All expansions in past Kickstarters have only had three sub-set additions; and the fact there is no more blank space on that Expansion's graphic is a sure sign.

Great that helps a lot as far as deciding where in my after KS list this expansion goes. Should be worth $50, but definitely want Core and my other fave add-ons first. Depending on what dreadmere unlocks, that may go in also, but so far not on my list (and my wallet is happy about that).

I do t have the graph link copied on my phone, it's in one boots summaries, and I posted it a bit back here. 

 

But on that graph I note slope of the line during the middle of the Bones 3 ks was steeper and set to intersect the line for Bones 2 if it had been given more time and had continued on it's then current trajectory. Theoretically given enough time, Bones 3 would have met or exceeded the funding of Bones 2. 

 

Bones 4 curve mirrors Bones 3.

 

 

i wonder when the pie throwing would occur.
