CodysGameRoom | 2,008 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Kickstarter Link Looks pretty interesting. I backed a physical copy. What do you guys think? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhleo | 2,184 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Aaaaaaaand insta-backed. I'm simple, I see Howard Phillips and I click Buy It Now 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code Monkey | 2,006 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Pass. If it were just Howard I would probably back it but I'm too afraid this is going to be like reading a Krakauer novel.........some interesting information from the pioneer but mostly just opinions from the person that wasn't there.

I feel the Kickstarter video could have been given a bit more attention to production values, but the impression I get is he is interviewing Howard and it will be turned into a book similar to the format of his web comic. Sounds good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegHead | 127 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I put it on my saved list. I'll have to see how my monies look next month. It's an interesting idea, to be sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3quit4s | 4,096 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Mehhh - If this was Neil Strauss and Howard, F*CK YES, but some guy interviewing Howard I dunno. I'm on the fence, maybe I'll be able to get one after some nice VGS people leave reviews lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNESNESCUBE64 | 537 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I think I will pass for now. Although, I am super curious on what insight howard will be giving us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintegageo | 582 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I think the book has some serious promise. Interested to see what it actually is as a book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noiseredux | 232 Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 I'm interested. Anyone know for sure if it's exclusive to the Kickstarter, or will it be on Amazon/etc ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,932 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I don't do kickstarters, seen enough to just not. But that really makes me wish I did, so hopefully I can get it one day as he'd totally be the one to do some serious reveals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
platformagnostic | 17 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Yeah, so I got sucked into this and backed it. Hard not to back Howard. I am really looking reading this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
