Reply To: Soloman Kane KS about to arrive, and I couldn't care less!

To me the delays are a part of the kickstarter experience.
Yes … there are projects that manage to deliver on time, but you’ll find that those projects were very focussed and prepared before the kickstarter launched. For boardgames that effectively means that the entire game is ready and just needs components to be made.

I like seeing how the sausage gets made, so I don’t mind it when things don’t go as planned and changes happen. If that kind of thing dulls your enthusiasm then it might simply be that you’re not ready to face the realities of a production process.

I’m kind of used to (videogame) companies announcing shiny new trailers for games that either never get made or get delayed. As such I kind of ignore the hype until the thing is available … and judge if it is worth getting excited for at that time.

@meanbone I think ‘Siege of the Citadel’ was one of the very first projects that Monolith did. To be honest I wasn’t expecting them to deliver the product at all after. I don’t know when it will arrive, but it will be interesting to see. I don’t remember the game, but all I know is that it was a very weird setting so I was in it for the art and weirdness.
