On the brink of 445k. Got about 10k in 5-6 hours today. Could definitely see it coming close to 480k. If it does I wonder if they'll have any sort of last minute surprise/push for 500k?

500k sounds good, more unique art, models, animations, and dungeon themes would be nice and help keep things fresh. But I doubt I'd put much time into survival mode, so I wouldn't be disappointed if it didn't hit 520k.
Kind of seems backwards, but it's how I feel.

Just backed it, I like all the goals to 500k as well, also not too interested in survival mode, but there must be demand for it

It's gotten 30k over the last 14 hours? Another 35k in the last 10 for 500k seems plenty possible.
Wouldn't have thought it would hit 520k a few days ago, but now I think it has a realistic chance. Will probably be close though.

i just want to mention that if you're not too occupied with D3 and haven't tried titan quest yet, do it. stat.
they maintained rights to the engine when their studio was shut down, so imagine the upgrade over TQ. not just graphics wise but design too. I'm in the process of playing through it right now and it's weird thinking that this game came out before this gen started.
i hope they comment on a target release window soon. with all these new goals being piled on im getting worried.

Heh, I totally missed the mark on that one then...
I'm just glad the attacks in Grim Dawn actually look like they have weight to them. That is the only thing I didnt like about Titan Quest. Well that and there werent really any defined classes.

Final total: $537,515
[UNLOCKED] $535k - A new faction and story-line! This stretch goal was determined by a fan poll thanks to William Potash for having the idea to run that!
All stretch goals reached, never underestimate the power if the final 48-hour (or hell, in this case final 2-hour) push.

So stoked. Played the shit out of Titan Quest.
Diablo 3, Grim Dawn and Torchlight 2. Year of the hack and slash confirmed.

A lot of things are ones they can add incrimentally; if they handled it something like WoW with periodic dumps of additional content, that'd be fine by me.
... although that said, they'd better do it faster than WoW does!

One donor pledged 7k with about 10 minutes to go to hit final stretch goal

Kind of wonder if they actually went through with that, or if they just did it to hit the stretch goal and then prevent the charge from going through.
I guess I'm just leery of big pledges toward the very end, especially when stretch goals and rewards are involved.

It was on sale for $26 yesterday (might still be) so I picked it up. I've played an hour and it seems fun. Not sure if I should go Soldier or Demolitionist!

It says "early access." Does that mean that the game is still in beta? I'm having a hard time figuring that out. Their website doesn't really explain it.
edit: er saw the "what the developers say" write up on Steam. I thought that was just marketing babble so skipped over it. Here is what they say:
Crate Entertainment said:
Not sure about spending 27 bucks for one act. I think I'll wait until there is more content. They must be having a tough go of it or else they are a much smaller team than I thought. Surprised to see that only one act has been completed.
Anyone know if that one act has multiple difficulties (like normal, hell, nightmare - whatever)? That would make it a little more interesting. NG+++ system would be good if they only have one act.
Still Alpha.
The act is surprisingly repayable and was more enjoyable than the entirety of vanilla Diablo 3.
I have been playing since May and can confirm this. Recommend that every ARPG lover pick it up.
I'm guessing every back has now received an Alpha Key. I've played a bit and the game is shaping up really well.
You won't find me saying it's better than Diablo 3 so far though gameplay wise (I still think D3 plays the best of all), but as a starting point it's got a promising future.

So, act 2 is out now:

Also, it appears that its currently cheaper to buy the game through their homepage instead of Steam.
