| Some analysis here: 1. The publisher in this case has a track record, so there is less risk involved. 2. $15 for an adventure game sounds "well priced" 3. There is a bit of risk reversal on the pledgers since the game might turn out to be awful. This is compared to buying a game after it has been reviewed. 4. However, the risk is only $15 5. There is much nostalgia, and even if $15 is wasted, it would have been a nice way to thank Tim for the good times in the past. 6. Presumably the game might cost a little bit more when it is released. 7. What happens if the publishers blow out their budget? It is a sizeable team. |
8. If the game does blow up in their faces, there will be video evidence of it for all the backers to enjoy.
