This kind of a RPGs isn't as niche as it seems. There are plenty of Fallout and BG fans who are waiting for this kind of game. But most of them will not tolerate this lack of visual polish. The developer really need to dream big and spend more. You have something special here in Avadon, don't let the budget hold you back.
At $9 this game is a deal, but the obvious visual compromises left me wanting. I would rather pay more to see the vision for this game fulfilled than pay less and deal with the game's budget short comings.
