Wow, it's getting a mini surge in the final day. $4.3 million now, so we're getting "The Depths" which apparently is hero mode. Sure, I guess. I don't play story driven RPGs for the challenge, but cool for those that care about that sort of thing.

Now, something that i unironically do care about that most others probably don't, as mentioned in the latest update:

Western-Style Box Art
Some fans of Murayama-san and Kawano-sans previous work might remember some particularly...unusual Western box art that saw the light of day in the West. Were happy to announce that after finally unlocking the last tier of the Painters Gallery in the social game, Kawano-san will be creating alternate Bad Western Cover Art" that will ship with every physical copy of the game...whether you like it or not! But as they say: "Beauty is in the eye of the backer"

Fucking yes! I don't care what anybody says, I loved the "bad fantasy art" cover Suikoden 1 had.
It was that cover sticking out so much that got me to notice Suikoden 1 in the bargain bin as I searching for a 2nd game to go with the B1, G1 sale I'd be getting Wild 9 with. I had never heard of Suikoden before, had no idea what it is. Didn't even consider myself much of an RPG fan back then.
And I saw that ridiculous cover art and was instantly intrigued.
I honestly may have never discovered the series if not for that damn cover art catching my eye.
I wasn't expecting such an easter egg, but that update note gave me a big smile!
