    Please Change the $60,000 Stretch Goal

    Guys, I know your hearts are in the right place. But I honestly feel like this is a waste of resources. Just like the last KS, you sort of wasted time and money on physical cards (hey I know you drew some people in with that) but general consensus is that most people who own the physical cards don't have anyone to play with so they are collecting dust, maybe will be worth bukus of money 20 years from now but other than that they are completely non functioning.

    I feel it's a similar situation with this new soundtrack. Fact is, that many of us if not over 90% of us turn the music off when we play Shadow Era. Sure one of your main competitors may have awesome music but they are drawing on a legacy of great games decades old. I see no reason to try to compete with them on that front...at this time, in this situation. Especially when there are other areas that more players actually care about.

    I'm a huge fan of video game music. I really am. I just dont' htink this is the right priority for SE atm. Maybe use the money to further improve visuals? Add extra heroes? I mean enhance some feature that 90% of players don't probably already haved turned "off" in the options menu.

    Oh well, congrats and don't stop on the KS till you reach $100,000,000

    yaaaay

    What you're suggesting to improve was the whole reason for the base of the kickstarter in the first place, it would be redundant to add another stretch goal to do the same thing. Beyond that, SE has great music, its just that we play the game enough to where it starts to wear on us and we would prefer to turn it off (most of us turning on our own music I'm sure). Having more tracks to switch between would certainly help break up the repetitiveness in that sense.

    Anyways some people do enjoy the music and the kickstarter was already aimed at improving the game (which adding more music does btw ) and I see no reason to not have something for that in the stretch goals.

    I think 60k should include 2 vs 2 as well or instead... This game will be a beast if 2 x 2 .. But music wouldn't change it much..

    Like most, I play with the sound off. Heck, when I'm on my phone I have it muted. So, this stretch goal is a big fat zero for me.

    But, i understand that there may be folks out there who think it's a great addition. So, I don't mind. Can't make everyone happy, can you?

    I'm pretty content just getting the campaign mode. That makes me happy. Anything else would just be gravy.

    But, more me, for always, the first and over riding desire is just MORE CARDS. Keep those expansions cranking at a good pace and I can forgive anything else.

    Developing 2v2 would also cost a crapton more than an expanded musical suite....

    Graphics and such, from my understanding, as well as community systems 'in-game' are all part of the core scope.

    Personally... if we're gonna kickstart each expansion - I would say next expansion would be ripe for a play-format expansion though, if this one goes through smoothly.

    As an aside, I only have the music on when I'm recording or broadcasting... when I'm just playing for fun, I usually have my own music running lol...

    I like the music thing even though I would have preferred the alt art first....probably too much of a Swagwhore...

    Also this.

    Honestly I never play with the sound on, but I don't mind the idea of an improved soundtrack. As Alz says it is a far cheaper endeavour than 2v2 (which would require major changes to the core game system, targeting, display, everything).

    Music is muted whenever I play (computer, phone, tablet) so I would like to second the switch of stretch goals!

    But basicly I'm agreeing with everyone else, awesome the 50.000 mark was made... Looking forward to a new and improved game
    Best Regards,
