[QUOTE="Herobizkit, post: 6110403, member: 36150"] I'm +1 for the "up with Kickstarters!" bandwagon. I've funded and actually received final products from such endeavours (and messed up with credit card payments and missed funding... sorry [MENTION=1]Morrus[/MENTION] *sheepish grin*), and I'm happy to see this become an option for gamers. And not just for gamers... but for anyone who has a project they want to get started but can't without some kind of financial "kick". 3.x products didn't have this option, yet we still managed to see piles of 3rd party products - mind you, many of them didn't go through vigorous prooofreading or playtesting or meet any kind of real criteria othen than respecting the OGC. Yet Kickstarter products give you, the guy with the cash, insight and in some cases, direct input into the product which you are going to buy BEFORE IT EVEN COMES OUT. Why folks would hate on that is beyond me. And we didn't have the www back around 1990, so there's that. The times have changed. Change is good. [/QUOTE]
