We also aim to identify any elements that might discourage us from pledging, confuse us, and ultimately cause us to click away. Once we discover a problem, we try to analyze a simple solution to hopefully fix it.

This is what we deserve. A game based on the Total War of Rome with a complete historical inconsistency.
This is great but do you sell the friends to play with me?
What.. where...?!? Why i know the existence of THIS only now?? Whit two years of delay??? O_O GIVE IT TO ME!!!
It's so close to being done!
Been a Rome Total War fan for a long, long time. Never seen or heard of this till now. Surprised to see the trailer was released two years ago, I thought it was something brand new!
exactly my thoughts :D
Same here. Did some research and game released this year! But map looks too small imo
Same here. I just completed the Rome 2 playthrough as well.
Me too 😁
Any news with this game? How much longer do they need to take? It's been years
This video really kicked my butt to fix my page as much as I could. And once I made it look better, I was excited to share in all my groups way more. Since you anchored $20k in my mind, I pushed hard until I got there. And we made it! Three times more than I expected!!! Wow! Wish I had more time to make more tweaks, but happy enough with where the page froze. Thank you so much!!
Congratulations Dylan!!!! I'm so happy for your success!!
I've been thinking about this project a lot. I think the value of buying the pnp bundle works like Patreon, where the first month you back you unlock everything. And then I get messages whenever new games come out, and it's always excited and tempting.
Masterpiece
The Pay What You Want strategy is fascinating. Definitely something to consider for my campaign in the future. Can the Limited Quantity for those pledge levels be increased as your campaign increases backer number? You could set a target percentage of your campaign to be Pay What You Want and increase the quantity of backers at that pledge level as the campaign increases full pledge backers. The one thing that I see that gets a little messy but I think they have a plan in place is that they can't do a simple 1000 copy print run of the game because there are basically 4 unique versions of the game they are publishing. That is a route that I definitely won't be taking. One game and one box size. Any Kickstarter or deluxe upgrades will fit in the base game box. But I know they have a plan for this so I don't worry about it.
I will do a big breakdown of the campaign later, but yeah, I had a theory more than a plan and tested it. Happily, it worked!
The 2 editions were an unnecessary complications, and I wouldn't recommend that. But the pocket version and deluxe version were perfect.
The pocket version will come in a small tight box. I can print 1000 of each. They are cheap to ship and I can fit hundreds in a suit case for conventions. The Deluxe versions will hold the small version, and I might print 500 of each Deluxe. Shipping goes up a lot for volumetric weight, especially at distribution quantities. I haven't tested the next step, but I would argue start small then get bigher, instead of start big and then leave out stuff. If not for shipping and storage, there's a good psychological feeling when spending more money and getting something bigger. The best alternative would be to have extra stuff outside the box as add-ons that are free with the campaign. I will do this for the stickers, so I can sell them at conventions separately, or bundle them with games if someone buys both.
Yes, you can increase limited quantities throughout a campaign to keep percentages good. At first half the backers got the PWYW levels, and about 10% of the funding. There were a lot of plushie add-ons or an extra deluxe add-on. Now, a day before ending, about 30% are PWYW level, at 5% of funding. A lot of people upgraded to VIP or all-in as stretch goals increased the value, or they understood the game (and me) more. I love engagement. I knew I would write a post every day and a half and do all social stretch goals. Without that, I don't think there would be as many upgrades. So at the end of the month, I didn't need to increase the limit. I'm reconsidering printing twice as many PWYW. I'll talk more with my core retailers what they want, but it seems like they want mostly deluxe versions.
@@dylancoyle it adds more complexity to the campaign but the two versions should work well in the long run. Very interesting gameplay in both.
Thanks for the Stress Test! I'll see what I can change in the next 50 hours before the page gets locked!
The GB CA EU look like flags on my computer, and the text looks fine on my phone. I need to work more devices into my creation process, like when I made mobile games we would test on all types of platforms to make sure the UI worked everywhere. Thanks for the heads up!
I wasn't sure if the stock footage would be a turn off or look professional, so that's good feedback too. Your blender lessons and kit were invaluable. I just need to learn how to animate everything now! 😅
The renders look amazing! I love the way you combined real life and 3D - it looks super good!
It was exactly what i wanted for a project. Thanks a lot.
UFFFF EPIC!! the boardgame is AMAZING!!
huh. I believe we will work together ;)
Looks nice but they colored buttons don't match the badass voice :D
Asiago!
AWESOME
Amazing!
Great Set! Worth the money. Great box to hold everything.
Beautiful. I love Planegea and this trailer
As an indie designer who is planning a few PNP games, this was a super helpful breakdown! Thank you for taking the time to process through these kickstarter pages. I've gotten a ton of value from this series ✨
Happy to hear that! Feel free to share your projects here :)
how would you approach added a noise texture to the finish?
I love how much energy you get once you get excited about something! Hope you get well soon, too many nasty colds going around!
This is Great
Here i am.. bought it right now with all DLC's and happy to be a real Rome supporter... still the best total war game with heart and soul❤ Roma invicta! Greetings from switzerland
And, is it good?
@@lijger1 sadly..... im still waiting for it.. was e birthday gift from my mother 😌
Amazing
perfect skill on both the video and music part. You nailed it!
Thank you!!!
Man....we don't deserve Chris George...
Chris George is a beast and Kagan is the man! Well done you two ❤️
This came even harder than expected
Thanks, this was super fun 🙂 It helps when there's such BOMB animation behind it all, dang your videos are so good!
So good 🤘 we’re playing this on repeat.
Amazing! What the duck!
Wow!!! This is sooooo good!! I was looking for the "back it now" button. Awesome energy!
It's been an HONOR! 🤩
YES!! 🔥
I got his all-in pledge in his last campaign. So many games! And he keeps sending updates for the old games too (around the time when a new game is released). 19 was a no-brainer cost for all-in, not sure if I would have lept so fast at a higher price.
Yes, that's exactly the point. We enjoy giving money to creators we respect and enjoy. When something is "dirty cheap" or "a steal" - there's a reason we use those terms to describe it. The best outcome is leaving you with a sense of "WORTH IT" after the purchase
Wasn't expecting much from this video, but it's a great example of so much good practices! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it
The irresistible offer and making sure they don't feel buyer's remorse is so key! Great video as always!
It's such a tight balance to walk. They really nailed it!
Thank you Kagan! :D
Great summary video!! Loved the red vs blue sea analogy.
Claims regarding training data set for SB are not true. It is not public domain, it is everything they managed to vacuum. He may have misunderstood how this works, thinking that finetuning with your own art changes anything. Current AI models are unethically, and probably not legally sourced. Time will tell. For me, this is the deal breaker, I will not back or play a game done with these generators, not in their current format. Most people will use this to cut corners. That is the reality.
Congrats on your kickstarter!! Who did your video for KS? Its amazing!
