It's probably some kind of character flaw on my part that a purely decorative suit of armor seems like it might be affordable, while I imagine that an actually-wearable suit of armor must be prohibitively expensive.

I have a buddy who made a set of armor for himself in his spare time using his metalworking-work equipment, he got declared armorer specialist then and is making armor on request now

On the one hand, it's a suit of armor.
On the other hand, if you can't actually wear it around the house, where's the fun in that?
On the gripping hand, it's a suit of armor.
Conflicted.
And when the zombies come, you will be laughing.

The latest development update was a breath of fresh air.

If you haven't caught it yet I suggest looking it over, sounds like things are on track.

I'm honestly a bit perplexed on this one, and I've been following it since before it was Kickstarted. (Dan Vavra had a series of posts on Gamasutra about his attempts to attract funding, which were alternately depressing and ludicrously funny.) I've also played several of the alpha versions.
On the one hand, I like the line they're clearly trying to walk between simulation and game-mechanics. "No magical stuff" is a pretty rare stance to take for a fantasy combat game, but they're sticking to it.
On the other hand, the simulationism is obviously so good that I'm starting to be concerned I might bounce right off of the gameplay, as I did with the original Mount & Blade. (I know there were updates and follow-ons to M&B, but I never even tried them because the original was such a bad experience.)
Just how quickly will KC:D kill me? And how frequently? And are they going to do the BS console game thing of deliberately preventing me from saving and reloading whenever I want?
I remain satisfied that I backed this game. And I'm hopeful that I'll be able to enjoy it. And even if I can't, I'm glad others will; Warhorse's approach is one I'd like to see other developers follow.
But if I'm being honest, I just don't know.

A bit of a necro, just because I'd forgotten this thing existed. Any news?

They did a Kickstarter update on April 6 (with a
video) on casting (they got Brian Blessed!) and motion capture.
So still kicking, I think.

So the Kingdom is coming but hasn't been delivered yet?

That's usually the way it works.

Very nice! I'll hop on the "I'm interested" train and go along for a ride, then.

Keeping in mind that the thing will also be held up for the console release.
It's apparently still alive though!

Today I get paid...
I wonder if the wife will allow me another game purchase...
