Why didn't you stop it?

Why would I stop it? I want it to come out.

It's going to be fucking awful and watching the train wreck will be free.

I don't know what this is but if it fails it might be another reason for people not to invest in these projects.

Where is all this disposable income coming from

>average backer donation is over $160

Something seems fishy

>>323046219
Stop what?

what is this

>>323046219
I don't have the power to stop "people" from making fake last minute donations.

>>323046219
Didn't they keep extending the deadline?

what do you expect me to do about it?

>>323046786

Everybody is a success except you.

>>323046219
How?
I don't know how to stop this.

>>323047967
They extended it once, because having it run over Christmas was retarded.

I'm seriously surprised it took this long to hit the goal

It's pleasant to know that not all the nostalgiafags are falling for this shit, even if they have managed to lure in idiots with babby's first investment instead

>>323047321
That does sound pretty fishy, even Star Citizen with their 1000 dollar ships has less of an average.

To be fair, Schafer kept prolonging the deadline. Also, they said "Oh, we're not done yet" so expect more jewery

>>323047321
>He doesn't know they use kickstarter as white laundering business

>>323046219
At the very least it says a lot that it only just barely reached its goal with only a few days left. If the campaign was a real breakout hit, it would've gotten funded in the first week.

>>323048086

>no risk on my end

You're the cause of the cancer anon, if people like you wouldn't just think "meh I'll throw my money at this and hope it's ok, I can't lose either way" You're encouraging this fucking shit and let me remind you that not a single good game has come out of crowdfunding.

>>323048356
>white laundering

well as long as its not mixed with the coloreds

I'm surprised it didn't get more money, either way this is his last chance. If he fucks this up too he has no more names to drop to get people to give him lots of money, Psychonauts was the last resort trump card.

>>323048365
I didn't donate you fucking dip, hence the "no risk".

>No good game has come from crowd funding
Kill yourself retard.

>>323048226
>the whole reason Tim couldn't find publishers is because his games are a terrible investment regardless of what you think about them personally
>start a new scamstarter where the hook is being able to invest in those games

Yeah, this is just exploitation of idiots.

>>323048452
>F-Full Throttle 2!
>Guys...?

>>323048452
Stop giving him chances you fucking asshole, he's a fuckup. Let it go.

>>323048689
He probably should've saved Day of the Tentacle for his next trump card, but yeah it'd probably be something like Full Throttle 2. Maybe The Dig remaster, or since they can't get the Indiana Jones license, they'll make an Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis spiritual successor.

>>323046219
>actually funded all 3.3 million dollarinos
I have the sneaking suspicion that this goal amount was not decided prudently

Were we ever able to stop it?

>stopping other people from doing stupid shit

If it was that easy, the world would be a better place

>>323048086
Exactly, I'm not expecting much, but if they can make a game as good as the original, I'll be a happy camper.

Note: I didn't give them any money.

>>323048489
investors won't even get money back since fig is going bankrupt soonish. it's horrible

>>323046219
You know when see a fight break out between a bunch guys over the dumbest shit. Part of you wants to stop it while another want to get some popcorn and far this shit will go. Just like mighty number 9, I am waiting for show to start.

Dis going to be good

>people gave Schafer money again

oh does that mean I have to contribute now?

>>323051564
As much as I want to hold this position too, I kinda already know whats going to happen. He'll release a game with lots of DLC or an underwhelming base game, say he tried his best, and rip off his fanbase some more.

As long as it's not your money, why do you care so much about how it turns out?

>>323046219

Okay, so I'm going to be totally serious about my position on this "should I trust Tim Schafer?" issue. I know nobody asked for it, but I feel like I kind of have to say it.

I backed Double Fine Adventure and ultimately didn't enjoy it (it's not a bad game exactly, it just didn't fit the remit of a classic adventure game), I didn't back Massive Chalice, and I think the Space Base issues were handled very badly.

I'm still going to give money to Psychonauts 2. I've never played the first one, and I probably never will.

This year I had a beloved series of mine come back on Kickstarter to triple record-breaking success, and I saw a lot of people who had never played the series pledge because they wanted to see the fans of Shenmue get what they want.

That's why I'm throwing in for Psychonauts 2 despite no connection for the series, or much love for Double Fine. I know there are lofty expectations, but in good faith at least based on the desire to do right by fans, I think if the game is funded it will turn out fine. Effectively, I want to thank any Psychonauts fans who helped make Shenmue III happen, by making Psychonauts 2 a thing.

I'm going to pledge not for Tim Schafer, but for the fans. I think they are the ones who will ultimately lose out if this doesn't happen. Tim and Double Fine will move on to another project, and that'll be that. The fans will get left in the dust thinking about what could have been, and that sucks.

So that's why I'm throwing in for Psychonauts 2.

>>323051872
Because we may be laughing, but Schafer continues to live with people giving him a million dollars. He's laughing way more than us right now. And there's no point enjoying his pleasures.

>>323051873
You lose out whether you pay for the game or not. Going to crowdfunding alone is a recipe for failure, and it has been shown that kekstarter only works mostly for low budget games.

>>323051873
I funded Massive Chalice and the game is an uninspired piece of shit. They did the bare minimum needed and pushed it out. Double Fine don't care about professionalism any more, they care about keeping up their San Fran lifestyles and that's it.

Link?

>>323051961
He has a fanbase that is big enough, has enough money and enjoys his games enough that they are willing (out of their own free will) to help fund the creation of his next game. Are you saying that people should not be able to spend their own money on what they want?

Ep15 is when the despair starts because its when they're working on finishing act2 but it's fun to watch from the beginning because they start off with so much hope and watching reality come crushing down is just great

>>323053098
You know that's all being faked, right?

>>323053153
how so? you're saying theyre just pretending to be shitting themselves trying to finish it?

>>323048430

Underrated post.

>>323053243
Yes that's exactly what Im saying. If I was under pressure for why the game was split into two parts with controversary over why the game isn't what it was suppose to be, I'd pretend I did a horrible job, too, and that the money wasn'y squandered to their pockets.

>>323050495
They had fucking Skype ads? Why did they even need funding

>>323053501
B-because tim schafer is p-poor!

>>323051442
The ROI was terrible anyway, and they were never obligated to give you money for the investment right away. They could delay indefinitely if they wanted to.

Dude, why would you try to stop it?

Good game - Great, we get a good game

Bad game - We laugh at those who paid

You people care way too much about Tim Schafer, it's pathetic.

>>323054739


Who else would we care about?

You act like we enjoy playing good vidya.

Sweet, summer-child.

Winter is coming.

Shut up retard

Because it's easier to kick back on a chair and watch the train crash.
