This isn't getting the attention it deserves. Since two weeks the original Descent creators have a Kickstarter running:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/re ... dom-shoote
IMO this looks A LOT better than the thing from the guys who bought the Descent name to make something that doesn't look and feel like Descent at all...
Single player centric, Matt Toschlog, Mike Kulas and Luke Schneider (who did some of the absolute best D2 levels ever (Surreal Abyss anyone?)) are on board. Plus the prototype video looks f*ing great, translates the look and feel of the classic games almost perfectly into our age. This simply can't go wrong!
I haven't backed a Kickstarter for three years, but this one *REALLY* deserves our money.
Descent successor from the original creators on Kickstarter!

Re: Descent successor from the original creators on Kickstarter!
I've known about it for a while and I have backed -- despite having no income for months. That should tell how much I care about this.

Re: Descent successor from the original creators on Kickstarter!
Yes indeed!
I want to back it, but I want alpha access, but not at a premium price!
I backed Underground and got alpha access at a lower cost than this project!
