What do you mean by " bundle packages for the actual game " ?

So that's 128 pictures, 100 different capsule toys + unlimited dice head capsule toys, 15 lucky hit boards and 5 NPCs.

So far that's 248+ different images of fans in the game if all the reward tiers are sold.

I hope you guys like fanservice...

I would want pc+ps4 copy, another artbook, the scrolls and maybe some of those temple things (they've got like 3 different of those ? lol).


Yes. Add-ons (and no more new rewards) is the best way to make more money now. I was hoping for some more fresh content as well (apart from the prerecorded interviews), but it looks like that's not going to happen.

Anyone know what this dice dude thing actually is? Is someone gonna draw a picture of a photo of yourself for the block capsule toy (and is it going to be as bad as the one on the kickstarter page lol?) - or are they just using a photo of you?

It only mentions Kenji Miyawaki on the $1200 chibi figure tier, so that's why i'm confused about the $700 one.

Dropped 10k since new tiers announced.. Not surprised

Like we all said, add anymore tiers it would come back to bite em. ..

$600 tier was a bad idea, devalues the $1500, just 94 backers for that tier now. Surprised they didn't add a $7500 tier since there's a big gap from $5000 to $10,000. I guess it's good for those on the $1500 tier though if there are less backers as their photos will be more noticeable.

I dont mind if there are less people on the $1500 tier if the lower ones make up for it, which they are overall but it's not resulting in a boost, plus people keep yoyoing on those 10k rewards which is annoying as hell

Yup and AJs response is to add more tiers that sound just as attractive at lower prices, major major f*ck up IMHO..

I don't believe people drop $10K for anything (with few exceptions) other than the pleasure of hurting the Kickstarter. It always happens around the stretch goals. It's a shame there aren't safeguards in place to protect the more expensive, limited tiers.
