They've already met their goal and raked in another six hundred dollars in the time it took me to read through the levels of reward for contributions. I have a feeling they'll be alright if I don't drop that $10k. Though I would like to have my own inn occupied by my own NPC wielding my own weapon...
Actually, the twenty dollar contribution seems reasonable. You're basically paying twenty dollars now for a copy of a the game when it's finished. If this were just three guys in a garage, that would seem like a sketchy deal, but considering it's from Obsidian, it might be worth the gamble.
