I hope people come to realize that the voice acting fund is essentially another stretch goal. Everything in the original Kickstarter campaign is still going to be in the game as far as we know.

XtraTrstrL3570d ago

Yeah, that's how I look at it, just a new stretch goal to make it even more polished.

@Tiqila, calm down you. Most people that backed the project paid just the amount to buy the game, so what is there to be upset about? Most people backing this new voice acting fund will also be paying just enough to buy their version also. They didn't lie about anything. The game was still gonna be made with all the stretch goals it reached. They just wanted to add another one, they setup their stretch goals realistically. So, they probably would be running low on funding for the rest of the last bits of polish if they spent the other stretch goal earnings on voice actors.

It's not like some Kickstarters that really got into hot water with spending the insane amounts of overfunding they got, then coming back begging for more cuz they miscalculated or went overboard on their game/project/whatever and spent all of it up too early and can't even finish the game without more funding. That is basically criminal and screwing over backers.

This isn't what is happening here. The game will clearly still be finished within the timeframe regardless of more funding or not. This is only if you want to see proper voice acting in the game. And again, alot of the backers will be new ones just paying to buy their copy of the game.

Listen Tiqila, how the hell do you know for a fact that they had enough money for this extra stuff? Are you their bookkeeper?

I donated $100 on the first kickstarter and feel like I've done my part. I don't HAVE to donate anymore, so why should I be pissed that they want more money for EXTRA stuff? I'm still getting the game I paid for, and if they reach more stretch-goals, I get a better game than what I paid for initially.

Why are you so quick to jump to the worst possible reasoning behind this?

Jonny5isalive3569d ago

I prefer their MM games without voices but, it seems like they shouldnt need more money to add voices to a game like this. Probably someone wanted a new pool to go at their new house.

Example:

You need $50.

Somebody gives you $100, so now you have MORE THAN ENOUGH MONEY.......but now you ask for $25 more.

WHY ? You have that extra $25....remember, when they gave you the $100??

$50+25 = $75.....and you have that, because we already gave you $100, so you should STILL HAVE $25 left over right?

Right?

right?

randomass1713569d ago

The final stretch goal in the original Kickstarter was $4 million. They made less than that off the Kickstarter. If they are going to add more stuff they need more funding. That's how game development works.

MEsoJD3569d ago

Am I the only one not feeling his character model? It's proportions and style is pretty bad compared to the character art... should have used 2s sprites.

Jonny5isalive3569d ago

yes I was hoping sprites and mega man x game type. thsi is more old school MM. They have another game coming out on 3ds that looks sick, like a 2d MMX game. I wish that was on all systems instead. I forgot what it was called, but its awesome looking.

Lol, I literally said that out loud when clicking on this article.

VersusDMC624d ago

Only tried the demos for both and mighty 9 looked atrocious. Megaman 11 was fun and polished. Never played both full versions but will see it they are on PS Extra when i get home.

Mostly get my megaman fix playing the azure gunvolt games and spin offs. And Maverick Hunter X on my Vita.

VersusDMC623d ago

Just tried Mighty No 9 again on PSExtra...graphics are atrocious and taking down enemies by dashing into them feels so hollow.

Kickstarter's Gaming Successes Prove Big Gaming Doesn't Know What Fans Want

Kickstarter has allowed game developers all over the world to bring their respective visions to life, while AAA Studios remains out of touch.

TheEnigma3131506d ago

This is very true. Companies like EA, UBI, MS seem to be disconnected from what fans want.

AK911505d ago

Um I’m not too sure about that check how well those games sold besides the money they got from Kickstarter they didn’t sell nearly as much as most games from publishers (AAA or not).

The unfortunate reality is these days games like Shenmue 3 and Bloodstained are incredibly niche and the only way it could survive is by use of a fan funded website like Kickstarter.

No Man's Sky had the most disappointing launch after the massive hype.

It also had the best turn around of any game.

Today it is basically a mammoth sandbox/city builder/space sim/casual podcast in the background meditative play. Love it right now.

smolinsk1513d ago (Edited 1513d ago )

But you jumped on the hype train without seeing what the game really came with.

Sean Murry absolutely caught up in the hype and talk about future stuff that wasen't there from the start.

But what i was promised before the game came out was an unlimited univers and everybody else was looking forward to just that and nothing else. So he gave us just that..that people could not see the true picture about an Early access kind of game was delusional, it was so clear it was not ready...

akaFullMetal1513d ago

CD3, and ff15, maybe shemue 3, I feel are more recent disappoinments than Duke nukem and perfect dark.

AK911512d ago

Anthem was predicted to be a failure from its beginning especially since the last game Bioware put out was the abomination called Andromeda.
