Why the gently caress would a game developer sign up for that when they can right now just launch early access on Steam and get all the money immediately? "You know what I'd really like is less money and someone to nag me."

gamers are idiot children with too much disposable income, and zero impulse control or object permanence. but what this kickstarter presupposes is, what if there were a way for them to discern a good game from a bad one......BEFORE it came out?????

well obviously they would just play the game and find the bugs and then tell the devs to fix the bugs before it can be released. don't you know how QA works you IDIOT??

lol, they're begging for money so they can try to get money from other schmucks who are begging for money and their selling point is "we're going to try to harass precious baby birds into updating on time then turn around and beg them for the money they don't have"

I enjoy the choice of "kickstart a platform to promote, debug, distribute, market, direct production of, screen, endorse, and maintain amateur games that you have to still have to kickstart individually with only a slightly better guarantee of timeliness, quality, and release and also the people running it are not actually veterans of the games industry and have to rely on kickstarter because even lovely platforms won't hire cut-rate idea men who barely know what a Gantt chart is" vs "wait to buy the game when it comes out" it's pretty amazing that gamers go for the equivalent of paying extra to go to a water park before they turn the water on and then are surprised when they get a wedgie strong enough to bisect them

that vessyl thing has inspired me how about a sensor u put in your cars gas tank and it connects via bluetooth to your phone and tells u the exact quality of the gas in ur tank. also the app lets u share ur gas rating and compete w/ other peoples gas rating to see who has the best gas in their car

Look we just want people to hand us 15% in exchange for us (we prefer to be called by our correct title Sensei but the English rough approximation 'master' or 'boss' is ok but frowned upon) to spend our time: - preening to customers on one hand, and - bugging developers for status updates / giving the developers advice on their games on the other Ideally though we just copy paste any comms & ETAs from devs totally unchanged, that's called 'transparency' we recognize that a dev's biggest problems are: - no good at relating to customers - don't keep their promises - not transparent - don't have E X P O S U R E (we provide it, no we don't advertise you we just list you on our site for people to find) and we aim to solve all that, plz pledge, is pre-approved god bless, any criticism is against god
