Do crowdfunded tabletop games ever fail?

My question was more about HBS since I can see InXile having that many people if not more, specially if every odd writer counts
Oh, well they are working that Dark Soul's clone thing.
I'm really out of the loop

Starting to become so only fools buy games the year of release, with all these enhanced editions popping up. Used to be waiting about half a year before purchase would do the job, giving sufficient time for post-release patching to finish the game. Now it seems you end up buying the inferior product unless you wait a year and a half. No way I'm buying the same game twice. This rankles.
Starting? It has been like this for 15+ years... I bought the game to support it and I'll be happy to wait for the definitive version. I can't understand how this could possibly be new to anyone that has been playing PC games for any period of time...

So, this is another way of saying "better wait 1 year and a half after Torment releases to get an enhanced edition". I don't know if buying the game before a year has passed is a good idea anymore.

Wasn't this update free for all owners of W2? So why are people moaning about it? Did Inxile changed its mind and decided to charge for the DC version?

The moaning is powered by the fact that if the average gamer games for 2 hours a day they have 730 hours a year to play. A Wasteland II play through represents 10% of the time they have per year to play a game.

Noting again that back in the day ToEE was released unpatched, company folded, and that was the end. We've graduated to first world problems.

The bitterness over inXile releasing something they didn't enjoy or considered mediocre or okay at best rather than the ideal of inXile releasing an instant classic and then something that makes it even better.

Like Larian. :troll:

2 hours a day is a lot.

Indeed. One hour would have been closer.

I also presume that people would game several hours on one day and not at all on others.
