Planescape: Torment was one of the best games from the nineties. It's an isometric RPG game that had a stellar cast and even more stellar writing. It's the only RPG game I've played several times; the gameplay is close to today's Japanese RPG's.
They're making a spiritual sequel to the game, and it's called Torment: Tides of Numenera. The fundraising went off on a very fast start but now they need help with closing in on some stretch goals. They are almost at 3.2 million as of this writing; the funding closes in seven days, and if they reach 3.5 million Chris Avellone, who was behind the Planescape: Torment development, will join the design team.
We have here a chance to help produce a thing of great quality, instead of the sometimes hackneyed and exploitative games that get sent our way. If we really want video games to transcend their medium, let's support projects like this.
