Just a heads up... Your post is pregnant... When you miss that many periods it's just a given.

If they hadn't brought back the original creator I might give it a look, but I really don't feel like kickstarting something for a guy that apparently didn't pay his writers last time. Nevermind his big old "manifesto" page in BESM 3 that amounted to "I, the game designer, refuse to take any responsibility for the quality of this game."

As Frank and rampaging-poet point out Guardians of Order's debt to their unpaid writers before they folded, makes me completely unwilling to fund this even if I wanted to dive it for ideas.
But if one of the projects stretch-goals was to honor GoO's past debts, I'd feel Mark MacKinnon was at least above board about his obligations.

A shame. I was hopeful that Kill Death Business would come after, but after Andy delays with Ryuutama and Shinobigami, I doubt anyone would contribute to another KS of his.OgreBattle wrote:Their cover art's too saturated, those are American cartoon colors
This kickstarter will probably deliver before the Shinobigami one that was funded 5 years ago.
Is there any reason at all to think this will be better than, or fix any of the problems with, previous editions?
The preview has a list of changes, but they're all conveniently vague enough that there is no way to tell whether the writers have any idea what they're doing. (Except for the part where it's apparently going to be a roll-high instead of roll-under system now. I'll admit that that is a nontrivial improvement, but nowhere near enough to save the mess that BESM always was.)
