There isn't a "right" or "wrong" way to play, if you want to use a screwdriver to put nails into wood, have at it, simply don't complain when the guy next to you with the hammer is doing it much better and easier. - Allein

Maybe an option when creating the poll. that would make sense incase it is a sensitive issue. . which are many here
Wa min God! Se æx on min heafod is!
Why would i do that when most MMOs are f2p?
I have pre-ordered in the past but that stopped with SWTOR. Never again.
There is no need for another to know how much financially, another here has invested, unless they want it to known o to be public.
It absolutely has given you a large amount of payback. Designing and writing code is real and gives you much more than wannabe game devs on forums get.
Plus the whole best laid plans thing. :proud:

LacedOpium: "So the question that begs to be asked is, if you are not interested in the game mechanics that define the MMORPG genre, then why are you playing an MMORPG?"

Shroud of the Avatar is exactly one of the styles of homebrew/grass roots projects, this Poll is targeting.
From the sounds of it, you should've voted $50 or higher..
There is one future MMO however that I might just support financially long before it's launch... I will watch it over the coming months and see what progress is made and see if it maintains it's integrity. (no I won't say which one that is)
At this point I have a few EA games though (non mmo) and as far as KS is concerned- I will never give them another dime even though the few projects ive backed have been successful except for one.
Until we have real accountability i'm done with crowdfunding except EA titles on Steam that I can return within 2 days and under 2 hours played or whatever.
I also hate the term "invested"- None of this is investment but its also not really donation either. Investment means taking risk with the potenial to be part of any profit/reward garnered from your money. A donation is (to me- maybe not a legal definition, idk) something I write off on taxes that purports to help people or society. I donate time to a homeless shelter occasionally and donate business services to certain unfortunate people but I do not donate to a company who plans to use my donation to profit themselves. Thats insanity imho.
Semantics on donation and I know im probably 'wrong' - but thats view-
