Bam! Funded. Feel a little silly for having any doubts they'd get this far.
The real question now is whether they can catch up with Mr Schafer's gravy train.

They might go even further,
Rpg's always had a bigger following than point and click adventure games, and nowadays everyone knows of fallout because of fallout 3.

Now they need to use the excess funding to hire the people fired from obsidian. Imagine the free advertising that would generate.

Hoooray
Wish I could throw more money at them to get them to like 3 million, that would be fantastic. We'll see where they go, though. Excited for the first batch of media updates from them, for sure.
You're gonna carry that weight.

If they can capture the essence of the old game play with new features/graphics bringing the same sensation, It's a must go for me.

You are *kind of* in luck.

Not that I personally endorse the project - the crowdsourced part sounds a bit iffy. But it's something.

Apparently if they get to 2.1 million, then some devs from Obsidian (Chris Avellone, notably) will be joining in the development of the game. So uh, Crazyfingers? Yeah.

Did they say anything about the battle system? The game sounds quite promising, but people might be disappointed if combat doesn't offer tactical challenge.
Regardless, I will support them. I'm not a huge fan of post-apocalyptic settings, but I want old school cRPG's back; I will take anything I'm given.
Then, there's also that Enahnced Edition of Baldur's Gate. Christmas has come early this year.

^ It seems all we know for sure is that it will be turn based.
There were some hints that combat will be more tactical than wasteland 1 though.
It's also confirmend that the game's mechanics are going to be influenced by fallout 1&2, fallout tactics, baldur's gate, arcanum etc but at the moment it's unknown how big will that influence be.

Ha! That's all I needed to know  It's been a while since we have gotten a proper cRPG.

soo, the kickstarter is past 2,5 million with 49 hours left. not sure about 3 million but at least 2,8 seems likely.
second concept art was released:

colors feel a bit bland but overall it looks great. i especially like the vegetation.

I loved Wasteland. Many hours were spent trying not to get too radiated...It's nice to see this kind of alternative take on creating a business.
The fallout (no pun intended) should be that jobs which weren't there, are created for those that need them.
