Just watched the video and read a little more about this project. It sounds incredible. If I were a PC gamer I would definitely donate to this project.
Heretic! You should burn!

That doesnt mean anything except it isnt balanced correctly or you played at too high difficulty/or fought the boss too early on. Lazy programmers doesnt care about balancing the game and instead make sure you're able to save anywhere. In case they didn't balance it correctly the player can still pass that boss/area by just abusing save/loading numerous times until luck strikes - a form of cheating.
Yep, exactly.
On the other hand, Star Citizen goes with controllers but says that the hardware for consoles suck and this is their reason they don't want to be crippled by doing a multi platform game while implementing conrollers on the PC.

Hope this gives you some faith in our ability and the work that has gone into this aspect of the game.
More updates on their way, we're listening to people.

I think save checkpoints can work in a linear corridor game but I don't see how it can work in a massive open world sandbox RPG.
They're implementing controllers along with joysticks and mouse and keyboards. This doesn't have anything to do with consoles but rather their commitment to support a wide range of inputs and peripherals (including VR systems like the Oculus Rift and full flight control systems with pedals and all.)
I guess our naivety strikes again, we thought that people would understand our vision by reading the text once we had their attention. The aim of the video was to prove we had the means to actually develop such an ambitious project on such a small budget.
As already said, the KS launch was quite poorly executed given the amount you're asking for.
I find your project very interesting, and I will donate (the reason that I haven't done so yet, is that Kickstarter wanted my credit card details - whereas I've previously been able to use my Amazon account to pay).
You should be able to get what you want, but I think a relaunch will be necessary.

As a sidenote, marketing, work of mouth and ear can be performed by any person that is sold to the project. You can use your own social network to bring some backers to it.
BrianFargo My first backed UK Kickstarter project. Looks like fun. I just backed Sui Generis on @Kickstarter kck.st/PkmGrD
