And then when Mighty no 9 finally came out the first impression said by the campaign was it was better than nothing. Tyranthraxus posted... Nah. It's a mid case study at best. 1. It actually delivered 2. The shit that happened was pretty normal video game dev shit it just ended up getting exposed to the public at large because it was crowdfunded If you want a great case study, check out this one: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1300298569/project-phoenix-japans-indie-rpg-feat-aaa-talent/description I don't think there was anything insidious about MN9 but they made so many missteps that looked shady. Like just before falling short of a goal they revealed it had been picked up by a publisher, which feels very much like a bait and switch move even if it wasn't. I may be misremembering exactly how that played out though. Not to mention overpromising and constant delays while funding a separate project. That's why I refer to it as a good example of mismanagement. Not a scam. --- "The US is not a single country.
