Clen up the Shed!

Has a kickstarter ever actually succeeded?

That really depends on what you mean by "succeeded." Ouya got a product out the door, but... it was the Ouya, so I don't know if I'd call that success. Divinity: Original Sin seems to be doing well for itself. Pebble managed a moderate success before more capable smartwatches made it even more irrelevant than it already was. Oculus Rift did well enough for Facebook to consider them worth buying. I would say those all "succeeded" by various measures.

Are they all worthwhile? Well, that's an entirely different question.

Wasteland 2 exists. It's not the greatest game in the world but it's pretty exactly what Wasteland would be if they made it in 2014, mission accomplished?

hello :)

I didn't know what star citizen really was other than from endless context clues, but this is the first time I've seen it. Other than the astonishing fact there is a crowd and stage for this non existent game, I am crying from laughing so hard at this whole video. 10/10 A+
