      This may be asking too much but when a new Broken Sword game was announced I envisioned the great 2d environments but with a lot more detail going on in the background. Litter being blown down the street, people going about their business in the street behind you, trees rustling in the wind etc. I even imagined how great it would be to have random occurrences in the backgrounds or even weather but that may be a stretch too far as it looks incredibly time consuming to do each background.

      However, if there was more subtle life in the backgrounds I think that would be the icing on the cake for me,

      Hi, i'm a backer of Broken Sword now.

      I want to say hello to everyone from Spain and that I love all the games of the Broken Sword Saga (especially the first and second).

      why there aren't any dutch subtitles?
      There are a lot of fans and backers in Holland too.

      Creator Bruno on September 6, 2012

      And about the Brazilian Portuguese subtitles??
      I helped to reach the goal. I know that I am only a drop in the ocean, but the firt and second game we had this option. So pleaaaaaase, add portugueses for all brazilian fans!!

      Obrigado!! =)

      @Chocwise @Murat Yep you are absolutely right about this matter. At least there will be an option which let subtitles to be translated while development process. Like twitter everyone can contribute to their language.

      Beautiful. I like this George very much.
      I'm happy you decided to dub the game Spanish and Italien. The fans there will be thrilled!

      For stretch goals i my number 2 and three, would be an orchestrated soundtrack and of course more unique locations (especialy locations that have been rarely used in Games before). But my absoluty favorite addition to the game would be something along the lines of the three paths idea from Fate of atlantis (Wits, Fists and Team paths) becaouse i reals loved this idea and the way it imensly increased the replay value and allowed a different point of view and apprach on many situations and riddles. And of course last but not least .... give us hard riddles.

      ... learn so much about characters, flirt a little with Grace, learn about Moseley's hobby's. It made the world feel so much more alive, and made you care more about the characters.

      In my mind, there's a big difference between 'saving a policeman friend' and 'saving a policeman friend who just went through a difficult divorce and plays the trumpet'...

      My 'wish' if the goal has been surpassed:

      - additional dialogue (and perhaps, descriptions of the games locations)

      So far, I haven't seen any adventure game where this has been done so well as Gabriel Knight 1: you could learn so much about characters, flirt with

       One other thing. Some more Nico gameplay would be great. She felt extremely underused in Broken Sword 4, in my opinion!

       Creator Matt Thornton on August 29, 2012

       Bravo, Charles. Thinks are certainly looking up for not only the hard workers at Revolution but us fans too.
       As far as requests go, I'd love to see plenty of farmiliar faces from the previous games as well as some interesting Easter Eggs, (seriously the Beneath a Steel Sky and Nico's wiggle E/Eggs still make me laugh!). Oh and I'd like to see alot more locations to explore like in Broken Sword 1. The freedom and choice to explore in that game is one of it's strongest aspects!

       Creator Chong Sim Chung on August 28, 2012

       Second the 3d craze looks odd or is it just a rough model. I loved the cartoony feel of bs1 and 2. 3d dragon fight was terrible. The newest games all feature 3d but wasn't good, I know going back to hand drawn is expensive and time consuming so at least a seamless blend of the background and character can be workable. The screenshot above is lovely for the background but George just looks blocky and sticking out like a sore thumb. Also please don't sacrifice good story line and humor to overkill on graphics. A good story in a badly animated game is always better than a high end graphic game with no real substance. Bs besides Lucas arts and telltale games had great story telling potential so hope the tradition keeps up

       Creator Stephan on August 28, 2012

       Not sure if this is the right place, but regarding the (in my opinion) bad choice of 3D-characters: Maybe a compromise would be to implement hand drawn faces only (their emotional reactions), like it was done in the re-release (?) of the first part, where the characters head were displayed in small frames. I think that added a lot to the athmosphere and I would love to see that again.

       Broken Sword inspired my MA dissertation this in turn got me my 1st job so I've given $100, if you need a historian let me know, coming from North Yorkshire it's great to know that Revolution are from my City.

       Creator Mike-Kerona Extra/Over The Half Dome on August 28, 2012

       I too pledged $100. I wish that I could pledge more, but that is as much as I can afford right now. Also, a little birdie from Spielburg told me that another high profile adventure game Kickstarter will be launching in the next month or two.

       @Alexey: the characters will look and move totally 2D.

       Creator Alexey Adamitsky on August 27, 2012

       I liked games from Pendulo Studios. The only thing I disliked was 3D characters. I was really happy to see the return of BS, but was disappointed with your choice to make 3D characters. Please reconsider it since 3D characters doesn't feel right at all to me in classical 3D quests.

   21. 

       Creator Ahmed Zahran on August 26, 2012

       You guys are awesome and the game looks just amazing. I'm sure it will turn out great.
       Broken Sword will always be my favorite adventure game.

   22. 

       Creator Benjamin Caubère on August 26, 2012

       I love what I see until now. I would have been even more pleased with a full 2d game. I'm personally a fan of classic character animation which was so good in the two first episodes.
       Anyway It's great to see that you came back to 2d finally! I cross my fingers so that your reach the 400k, but I'm sure that the whole fan community will back you up. Can't wait for that game. Good luck !

       I have grown up playing the Broken Sword games! I'm happy to back the 5th game! Absolutely love the games and looking forward to playing any new Broken Sword installments! :D Good luck!

       Creator Northensnow on August 26, 2012

       I knew about a new Broken Sword being made, but I was completely missing this kickstarter! I really hope a new amazing entry to the series will be born, to be honest I didn't enjoy 3 and 4 all that much.

       Creator Zappar on August 26, 2012

       I'm wondering a bit why Charles Cecil states here http://www.youtube.com/watch… how important the hand-drawings and "wrong" perspectives were for what people loved about the game and that you lose a lot with 100% correct 3d imagery and animations, but then they didn't go all the way with the characters. To me, this closeup looks really unpleasant for example: http://i.imgur.com/tYRhm.jpg

       But I'm not not all about ranting - the backgrounds and the lighting look phenomenal!

       Creator CHRISTOPHER BRADSHAW on August 26, 2012

       this is the greatest news i had heard in many years, lets get this game backed and get it made, i cannot wait for this!

       Very nice. Guys, please, don't mess this up, I've been waiting for over a decade for a new 2D (at least not full 3D) Broken Sword.

       I feel a lot better after reading more about the animation process of the characters! Would you be able to post an update with a little clip of the characters moving within a scene to illustrate your point? Many thanks!

       Creator Abdulaziz Alrefae on August 25, 2012

       Hello Charles!

       I would really recommend putting your interview with AdventureTreff in your next update! It was a great and insightful interview that lets the audience know more about the game and its history and what you guys have planned on doing with "The Serpents Curse". I really think it would be insightful to current backers and very benefitial to potential backers!

       It'd be nice to know more about a couple of the rewards, the shirt in particular. Mostly just hoping you have a more interesting design in mind than simply the logo/box art on a black shirt.

       Creator Mike on August 25, 2012

       It's a breath of fresh air to see such detailed and rich backdrop, completely faithful to the original series, but at the same time higher-res and updated to take advantage of the resolutions and colours we have access to on computers today.

       Really looking forward to playing this!

       The background art is incredible! Also, it'd be cool if we could get some higher res screens too...maybe in another update? It'd be great if barrington could return as well :)
