I'm happy with the movement. The developer is more in touch with the customer, the developer doesn't have to compromise with a publisher on creative issues. Sure there is risk for the customer, but you decide how much risk you want to take. Besides, I've bought plenty of games before that turned out to be a waste of money. What's the difference?

I don't want to see the big publishers gone, though. I don't think they're evil either. We still need them for the big blockbuster titles that cost millions to produce. But for a niche genre like the adventure game I welcome crowd funding with open arms!
