Just in….new BS game….Broken Sword:the Serpent’s Curse
and it is a kickstarter….not much of a shocker though,repordtedly they had some financial problems hence the director’s cut versions etc.

ok if the video in the kickstarter is any indication i’d say it’s going for 2.5D

So it’s official! Broken Sword 5 woohoo! The only thing that startled me, that they’re going the kickstarter route. Well, this is a sure pledge for me, hope the other people are not yet completely fatigued by KS and pledge some money too!
i’m gonna be as fit as possible for this one

Can’t say i’m surprised that they are going the Kickstarter route.
An adventure game is nothing more than a good story set with engaging puzzles that fit seamlessly in with the story and the characters, and looks and sounds beautiful.

Just saw their kickstarter video, it’s nicely done, but I’m not feeling the design of 3D characters… The 2D characters would so gracefully complimented the beautiful backgrounds… anyone with me?
haven’t decided yet…the only thing i’m not feeling is George’s hair….there’s volume to it…example

I stand corrected. 
I am surprised it’s going down the 2.5D route; they did say it was going to be pure 2D!
it’s not that different from National Treasure.
Don’t compare it to National Treasure - or even The Da Vinci Code - as Broken Sword (1) is WAY better at handling the Templars! Not to mention Gabriel Knight 3 too… Even Charles thought National Treasure was pants… 
but aside from how plausible such a scenario is,would you be interested if it could happen?
No, I wouldn’t. Broken Sword is better when it’s in 2D and animated. 
Of course I’m thrilled, but I’ll have to get some things off my chest:
- NOT thrilled it’s a Kickstarter. Don’t ask me why, and it’s not really much of a problem, it might be that I wanted BS5 to come back as a regular production.
- I’m not sure about the 2D art style - it might turn out to be nice, and I’d wish “nothing more” than the style of Broken Sword 1 - more animation and “cartoon” feel to it.
- Don’t quite dig the 3D characters - it’s one of the reasons I didn’t care for latest Pendulo games - too much of cel-shading makes them look less natural.

ok first off here’s a link for an interview of Charles by AdventureTreff.
Part 1
ok @Dusty….i’m just pointing out the similarities of the two stories,leave aside what absurdities they might have or which is better.
personally i don’t mind a kickstarter for this one.it offers some things i really want in the middle tier.also it seems they didn’t have that much freedom in the past with the publishers so i’m interested in the result.

Thanks for the link.

I didn’t see that many similarities with the story at all, to be honest. 
It looks like a publisher was very interested in Broken Sword 5, but Charles turned them down…

Another kickstarter!!!!!!?
...backed .
Now 2013 can’t come soon enough so I can finally play some games.
ok both videos are up….
i think this is going really well.it’s been what,1 1 and a half hours and it’s already near 30.000$.if this rate continues by the end of this day this project will have been backed fully.maybe have some extra change too.
