I couldn't disagree more with the original post.
We found a way to get the type of games and the level of creativy we miss, funded again, because we found a way to bypass publishers.
I hope and pray this is the way of the future for so many art projects.
I honestly don't have words to express how much I love Kickstarter.
I've backed DFA, The Banner Saga, Wasteland 2, and now Leisure Suit Larry. I'm looking forward to Tex Murphy and hopefully, a Jane Jensen project, too.
I actually changed my personal financial spreadsheet to reflect backing Kickstarter projects as a regular expense. I believe in this as a way to get better games, to help people get their art funded, and as much a movement as anything else.
I love kickstarter.
Love it. I hope it's not a fad, but a new way of making art happen.
