First off, I am in the camp of "we need more RPGs, back any that seem legit because there's a massive drop in Kickstarter backers." So I would normally, but the dev seems to not understand what we're saying. A new developer is LUCKY to get a 100k, but 900k? Not going to happen. I wish more RPGs could get funded, but the developers themselves have to have realistic goals and analyze the market they're seeking money from. Anyone who has paid attention to KS knows many big RPGs aren't hitting low goals of 100k. To hit 900k you need to have released a few big hits... that's just a fact.
Maybe they could have done it back when Doublefine made news, many small, new developers were making it, but those days are long over. Check out 3 games I eagerly want to play: Lords of Xulima, Deathfire and Greywalkers: Purgatory. Of the 3, only Deathfire is doing so-so and that's because it's a well-known developer that's been behind some legendary RPGs, and even he's having trouble reaching a much lesser amount (390k), and the other two have very interesting old school designs. LoX alone is near beta status and is barely hitting any stretch goals, despite having video proof of being in working condition and fairly true to its roots.
" If you remember that devs had to cut off possibility of killing children in Fallout, then you know what I mean."
I don't remember that, on account of I was too busy murdering countless children in Fallout 1 and 2...
