EPT@Jeremy Reimer: Yeah, I remember reading an early interview or two when it was being hyped up, maybe it was the one you linked even (too long ago to remember). Easy to say in hindsight, but even back then, I remember their answers feeling wishy-washy, but also passionate, and thinking "either they are drilling down hardcore into what would make a good game, or they just have no clue". I guess we maybe found out which it was.
@ChillFlame: Haha. Well, we can't all keep up on the goings on with everybody, I wouldn't begrudge people not knowing about every shadowy individual who keeps their head down and their mouth shut. Which makes what you're saying useful information. Also, you're right that gamers put up with way too much shit in general. Even if Frost Giant ran away with all the money and we never saw a game of any significant quality, I think you could point to worse crowdfunding scams in gaming, to start with. And then there's how far people's tolerance for microtransactions has shifted.
