The fate of Shenmue is in your hands now

lol imo shenmue 3 was also a scam because how shit it was.

 

[rkofan87]

yet that is exactly what kickstarter does.

The tiers also say stuff like "ships oct 2017" yet my SS remake didn't deliver til 2023 lol

Also, personal advice: don't kickstart shit, esp video games. Every single one I've done has been YEARS late and usually mediocre.

did you kickstart Blood Stained or broken age?

Kickstarter comes with risks. You're investing based on a sales pitch but there's no guarantee they can or will deliver.

It's why I've never Kickstarter'd anything.

I was pretty happy with my kickstarting overall. Some good games including Divinity: Original Sin 1&2, Pillars of Eternity, Expeditions: Conquistador (all of the Exp games are good), Wasteland 2.

There are a bunch I backed and still never played. I think Squadron 42 was the only scam.

That's Kickstarter.

Don't back things if
A. You can't lose the money
B. You aren't confident they can deliver

I blame Phil for this one too.

It's always weird to me how people demand refunds

"We are out of money and are closing, sorry"
"Ok so when do i get my money back?"

did you kickstart Blood Stained or broken age?

No, but I did KS Nightdive's SS remake and TW101 port/remaster

No, but I did KS Nightdive's SS remake and TW101 port/remaster

From the kickstarter post.

I mean technically project creators are required to deliver what they are crowdfunding as part of their terms. It just seems nobody ever makes enough of a issue out things like this…
