    @Subgogo:
    Did you see that Notch expressed interest in funding Psychonauts 2 on Twitter? I'm quite optimistic about it.

    I'm a huge fan of Tim Schafer and his team, and great fan of the Monkey Island series. Having said that, not all Double Fine games have grabbed me. I haven't still tried "Brutal Legend"(so cant commit myself on that), "Psichonauts" I didn't really like, nor "Stacks"... I dont fault the guy for that, it's just they weren't the games for me... So as I'm truly happy for him and this project to come about... I'm not 100% too eager to spend my moneys into this without any knowledge at all about it... If I had at least the impression I would be liking his future game, I'd support it, no doubt...

    Maybe we can have a sneak-peak of smthg before the March pledge is ended...?

    Brutal Legend was awesome.

    It's not a new model, but it's becoming a more popular model. The company that's making CARS is using a similar model, and the pay-for-beta exploded after the success of Minecraft.

    @Gh05t_
    There is a big difference between helping a developer fund a game that they truly want to make and just throwing money at people to bribe them into throwing together/rushing some garbage that they don't even care about.

    He's definitely right about one thing - not every game is worth $60!

    @Dr_Corndog I hate that too, I never watch videos on here.OT: I don't see this type of strategy working for every developer.

    1,5 million dollars and counting! Even though their goal was quite moderate, I doubt any other developer says things like, "Oh, our budget just got four times bigger".

    They need to make Psychonauts 2!!!! I loved the first one for all the dialogue and awesome gameplay. I still play that game til this day.

    People are giving money because they trust Double Fine, their employees, and they have proof from the past that they can deliver. This is not a blind investment out of generosity or curiosity. It won't turn out this way all the time.

    Yes publishes, there are some gamers who happen to be humans...

    Holy cow. I bet the developers nearly keeled over.

    You people want to help devs and play inovative games for kickers? Join Desura. Buy games in alpha state.

    But bashing bid publishers for being conservative is an exercise of futility for obvious reasons.

    Didint this start out for psyconauts 2? Now he changed his mind and insted is doing point and click adventure. Why?

    @Tripwolf correction. It's the dragon age 2 team that spat on the customers. The Mass Effect 3 team listened to the fans by A. bringing back the weapon upgrade system from ME1 B. Putting in branching upgrade trees for abilities, and C. putting Kai Leng, a central character from the books into the game as a major character.

    people looking at this page. If you want to support developers doing their own thing and taking donations to essentially bypass publishers and give you early versions of the game i.e. (the minecraft sale strategy) Check out Project C.A.R.S. from the guys who made the need for speed shift game. It's a racing sim with some of the best graphics I have ever seen in a game. Also, look at a certain kung fu rabbit game called overgrowth. viva la indie revolucion!
