Skeptic here, "something" will likely be delivered but what exactly that will be and when will it be "released" is in great question.
Like many "indie" games I see the possibility of long or never ending "early access" or pre-launch releases (alpha version 16.9) as the features are trickled out.

I don't fit into any of those boxes, or pie categories, and I don't agree of the labeling or the said motives either. It's much more complex and many more motives, plus a blend of motives for many people too. As usual, the goons make nice figures but with poor content.

Perhaps we should ask Gorf if he'll put a new section in for snowflakes that spend $20,000+ on $60 computer games?
I'm in the "Confused" category. I don't know why I keep coming to these threads when I probably won't play the game regardless of it's success or failure.
Seriously. I've read like 40 pages of forum drama for this game and I don't even care. Why am I doing this...

That would be the category of people that have so much money $20,000 to them is like $60 to the common folk. The more money you have the less value you place on it, due to any particular cost being an increasingly smaller fraction of your wealth.
I fall in the category of Whatever...
Some things about it sound neat, but they commonly do for games in a promotion stage. Based on the cost of some of the things on their site I expect that even if the game should come to pass as depicted the expense of playing will eclipse my interest.
Turns out I was Skeptic all this time and I didn't even know it! O.o
Yes, I doubt the game will not achieve its promise in full and I do believe in a modest release of the project's scope will release on something that can and should be expanded later.

You dear sir, from your posting, fit straight into the Zealot category. Do not stray from your faith just be course this came from SA.

Of course it comes from SA; how else could we get fuel to instigate controversy and drama in this forum? The goons come to the rescue with shiny graphs, gg
Let's run around with stickers to put labels on every poster, so I see from your posting and how you only post to actively get a chance to criticize the project... then you'd be a hater?
I'm as far left to skeptic as possible without being a "heretic" with a sprinkle of troll because evangelists/zealots/shills are too funny to watch bumble around making excuses for everything wrong.

Nice try MaxLexandre. You make like 7000 posts on SC each year? If you don't fit in the zealot category I don't know who will.
Personally I'm in the skeptic category while sometimes dipping my feet in the agnostic pool. Would love to see this succeed but Croberts and the SC community are often so obnoxious.

As we're in a wave of making judgments on each other, for me you make it plain into the hater category, you only post and actively seek to criticize the game, nothing else and I have never seen you leaving such one sided stand. But hey, each to their own.

I'm fine with the SC community thinking I'm a dirty "leaver"/troll/hater.
"openly despise the project"would be the closest but not an accurate assumption.
It is not the PROJECT that i doubt anyone would have a problem with,it is the results so far with a massive amount of money garnered.
If a dev wants to spend 500 million,idc that is fine IF it is THEIR money.However,as soon as you start trying to manipulate and deceive simple gamer's into giving you free money,you SHOULD be scrutinized. The ONE excuse that could be bought into early on was the claim that gamer's funding would go a LOT further than if SC had to secure their own funds.Well that excuse has long been tossed out the window so now it looks like terrible management,over spending and just a continuation of money grabbing from naive people. You have to SHOW something of equal value for the money you took from naive people and of course it is all opinion but mine is that Chris Robert's is a terrible producer/manager but a very good con artist.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.

You are somwhere in the Evangalist to Shill spectrum, at least in your posting.
Personally I am a Skeptic with a slight occational dash of Hate when the White Knights gets too over zealous.

Rather a toxic thing to do if you ask me...
