There's that anger again.

I know that a lot of things have changed since the 90s.I know that companies prefer to pay literally millions of dollars for a CoD or BF game every single year that is little to nothing more than mindless "move here,shoot enemies,press button" stuff.
But it DOES look silly when you get people go "Oh fund my project".Because it's sad that companies stopped helping good creators make good games.
But...that's what I don't like personally,the fact that so many kickstarters started popping up like a trend when companies should pay up to have good games made rather than make the people pay to have games made.

It's clear you don't really fathom what's going on, because you're blaming developers for seeking alternate means for funding their games when, in your words, "companies stopped helping good creators make good games." What else do you expect these game creators to do? Sit around and wait for these companies to change their minds? Why be passive when they can be proactive and make their games with a better method and avoid all the interference and complications from a publisher?
That's like being angry at someone for shopping for groceries at Store B because Store A is closed. It's not their fault Store A is closed. And you know what? It looks like Store B offers some things that Store A doesn't offer.
You want to go protest all the companies that don't support adventure games? Go ahead. But the rest of us are embracing this new form of crowd-funded game development as a more viable solution versus posting angrily on web forums and cursing the sky.
Your viewpoint on this is irrational, and your anger towards developers using kickstarter is misplaced. Until you have a better, practical solution, stop complaining.
