Actually an action RPG developed in Africa called "Aurion: Legacy of the Kori-Odan" was released this year.

I'd love to see an RPG taking place in Africa... or any region / time period other than medieval Europe. I'm hoping that Logic Artists will eventually make an Expeditions game set in Africa.

Congrats on passing your goal. I'm hoping that at least the first two revealed stretch goals are reached by the time the KS is over.

I'm not normally a big fan of dungeon crawlers (I tend to get bored with RPGs focused entirely on combat / loot; particularly with "blobber" style FP combat that most crawlers have). However, I am very much looking forward to this game because it will have AoD's excellent, tactical turn-based...

Sounds really good to me. Any RPG that departs from the most common setting (high fantasy in pseudo medieval Europe) is refreshing to me. Timeslip's first game "Deadstone" received mostly positive votes on Steam, they have a downloadable alpha demo, the game is reasonably close to being...

Not at all. Go ahead and use it or edit it as you see fit.

You could mention MYST as an influence, too if some puzzles are similar. The important thing is to be very specific about what aspects of a game influenced BfH. Often indie developers simply list a slew of games from different genres on their KS / Greenlight page like "Inspired by Call of...

I guess I don't follow any of these developers close enough to decide who the biggest liar is. Todd Howard seems full of typical PR BS but I don't know if he lies any more than any other big company does. Molyneux definitely seems to be a huge liar though I guess it doesn't bothered me since I...

Well, even if it might not be extremely similar to the Back from Hell, it may be worth mentioning the "Quest for Glory" series as it is probably remains the most successful and well known attempt to bridge the gap between P&C adventure and RPGs. More recently the very good "Heroine's Quest"...

There is some unfortunate truth to this and I don't entirely fault you for it. However, I would strongly advise against name-dropping Diablo as you may turn off potential backers like me who dislike that game or ARPGs in general if they just come across your KS and give it a cursory glance...

Everything looks and sounds extremely interesting to me. The only thing that gives me pause is that you mention Diablo as an influence. I hate Diablo. It is probably my least favorite RPG of all time... So what specific elements are going to be similar to or inspired by that so-called RPG?

Well, your mom really likes it when I shoot it in her face :) Now you're just being pedantic. Obviously I wasn't disputing the biological function of semen. I was merely pointing out that the religious zealots think we ought not have sex for any reason other than procreation with our spouse...

My grandfather used to say the two types of people were givers and takers. And you know what, I think I'd tend to agree with that. However, I don't really think I'm either. I don't give a shit but I don't take shit either. So I can only conclude that I'm not a person. Anyway, in regards to...

Instead of insinuating my supposed total lack of knowledge about something, how about providing some shred of evidence that contradicts anything I may have misinterpreted / misrepresented in regards to your completely plausible and historically accurate stories? I know requiring evidence for...

Well, like many sources of entertainment, porn can have negative aspects such as being addictive to some. If it's negatively impacting your personal relationships, career, etc. obviously that isn't healthy. But let's not forget where a great deal of the anti-porn sentiment comes from. A few...
