StaceyPowers Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 Did you ever back a game through Kickstarter? Did you have a good experience or a bad one?
killamch89 Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 I've never backed a game through Kickstarter and the main reason being that most of them turn out to be scams and the developers run away with the money right after reaching their goal.
m76 Posted August 12, 2021 Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) I backed four games, only two of those actually delivered the game they promised. The other two never came to fruition due to gross mismanagement and corruption. The last one I backed was in 2013. Positive experiences: Giana Sisters Twisted Dreams, Shadowrun Returns Negative experiences: The Mandate, Squadron 42 Edited August 12, 2021 by m76

That's why I won't back any games nowadays no matter how much they try to market their game's "innovation".
Heatman Posted September 4, 2021 Posted September 4, 2021 It's not something that I would easily do because from the one's that most people have backed lately, over 90% of them didn't really end up well.
