“The risks of backing a kickstarter” generally fall within ‘they screwed up and ran out of money’ to ‘featurecreap’ and overall lack of experience issues.

True you may have “known the risks” but I think everyone agrees that the risks shouldn’t include delivering something other than what was promised.

Whoa. A sensible response. Is this still kotaku?

I backed it. This sucks really hard. But at the same time I can’t get as riled up about it as I feel like I should, after all I knew the risks of backing a kickstarter.

You will never see the game you backed. Just accept that now and keep hammering this company on the issue until the relent and give you an interview.

This is where a refund policy would be great. If the company doesn’t deliver by the expressed date, or the developer makes major changes (as in removing features, not adding), then you can get a refund. Too bad it won’t happen...

You need to read the article again, the problem isn’t the delay but the lying.

In this case the story is about them possibly lying about the delay because it would almost certainly negatively affect the Red Ash Kickstarter, not really about the delay itself.
