There have been many crowdfunding projects covered on this site and people have various views of them. For example many people liked Pillars of Eternity and considered it a good investment. Others hated it. There are plenty of back and forths on this forum. Another example of this is Shadowrun. Some people considered it low quality and called it a phone game, others thought it was great. Other crowdfunded games like Lords of Xulima have mostly positive threads, though there were many fewer backers. Then we have Jagged Alliance:Flashback, Unsung Story, and After Reset, which when they get discussions, have largely negative feedback. My point, ChienAboyeur, is that not all kickstarters get the same reception. But I think you know that. I think you like playing the devil's advocate.
