It's just idle Twitter talk at the moment, but... would I pledge to help fund a new Planescape CRPG[1] through Kickstarter similar to the Double Fine Adventure thing (which is currently at around $1,350,000 of their $400,000 goal)? Well, given that I've often said that I consider Planescape: Torment to be by far the best "Bioware-style" CRPG ever made (even more so than the ones actually made by Bioware itself), then yeah, I probably would. It doesn't even have to be a direct sequel to P:T (and in fact, I would actually prefer that it was not a sequel at all, given that that game was a fully complete story arc), just so long as it is the same quality as Torment. Given that it was primarily Executive Meddling that hurt games like KotOR2 and Alpha Protocol (and even then, those games weren't totally super-horrible, despite that), it would be nice to see a game from Obsidian that didn't require them to answer to The Man™.

[1] - Or at least something similar even if it's not the Planescape IP, since that'd probably be nigh impossible to get a hold of these days and would likely be exorbitantly expensive even if they could get access to it. Honestly, I think I might prefer something new, rather than something explicitly set in Planescape, but if they could get Planescape again without much trouble, I wouldn't have a problem with that either.
