[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 7655814, member: 4936"] There's a definite 'art' to crowdfunding via Kickstart and similar sites...and it's an art that Trapdoor seems to have yet to master. Things like starting with fairly low (as low as you can get away with) initial requirements, but incentivizing higher bids via incremental rewards. Things like a lot of information about products, with frequent updates and constant attention. And of course, things like maintaining that delicate and hard-to-find balance between trustworthily professional and friendly/chummy that engages people's goodwill. I'd really like to see digital tools for 5e. But since I'm not entirely sure that's what Morningstar IS...that kind of inhibits my willingness to throw money at it. That's the killer for me. Especially for 5e, which is for the moment very easy to make characters with manually. I'm sure someone, somewhere, sometime, will come up with something that has more concrete, definable goals that I can get excited about and maybe contribute to the success of. Maybe even Trapdoor, should they try again. We will see. [/QUOTE]
