I'm optimistic... shared the kickstarter on a couple of comics forums I post on becuase... seriosly... if you like superheroes and games this is a no brainer. Either way I'm holding out for the 60k anouncement, because I suspect it might be the contest winner and I wanna see who is the baddest villain in the land.
The contest winner's character is actually in the Shattered Timelines itself. So the 60k villian is someone entirely different, that may not be related themetically at all to the expansions. Much like Ambuscade for Infernal Relics.
What? How do you mean that Ambuscade isn't related to Infernal Relics…I mean, sure, he uses guns instead of magic, and he doesn't ever actually deal any infernal damage, and he doesn't own any relics, and he uses drugs, but…he's…uh…french? Okay, so maybe you have a point.
Personally I am hoping that the villian will close the gap of a hero that is missing a nemesis (not including the villian the is nemesis to the freedom six) much like Ambuscade did. I believe it has been confirmed that Fright Train is not Bunker's nemesis and that they have special plans for him, maybe being Bunker's Promo card is that? I'd really like to see Absolute Zero's or Unity's nemesis over anyone elses, more so of Absolute Zero since he has been around longer.
Dude, I SO want one (actually a couple) of those "blank" cards actually printed as an Oversized Villain card. Any chance we could make that happen? I'd put one on my wall.
The update did give away an exciting villian. It is the mysterious Questioniare. His real name was Mark, he was raised to question everything to learn all the answers to everything. When finally he asked the wrong question to a evil gypsy, who than put a curse on him that turned him into a living question mark. His villian cards actually fill in the blanks from his missing character card, thus allowing him to adapt to any situation. His Health cards even scale with one another giving him a max health of 500! Not to mention nearly each of his villian cards are indestructable, making things even more difficult as the battle rages on.
Absolutely not! He must give us our kickstarter update NOW! He should have had it all ready, so he could just click send the moment we hit $60k. In fact, he should have had a cron job checking the totals every minute, such that it would AUTOMATICALLY send the update, the minute it was ready!
(As in the original post, if the sarcasm isn't obvious, I'll make it so now )
