"I am going to take your money regardless of if nobody likes my idea" is the opposite of dedication and also the opposite of what Kickstarter is supposed to be far

I thought he was saying "I'm going to make this game regardless of whether you give me money or not". =/

What shows dedication:

Running a successful and realistic campaign that gets you the funds you will need to actually make a game, rather than finishing it by magic
Making a game without any funding at all, somehow

What does not show dedication:

Claiming that "I can totally do this without you" but taking money off a bunch of strangers anyway
Undermining the reputation of a site plenty of people use to show real dedication by using it as a donation box instead of for its intended purpose

He's making promises he has no idea if he can keep, it doesn't show any dedication at all to say that you're going to do something
Especially if saying that is going to give you a whole load of cash

Okay, I guess I can see it from your perspective, though I think he was mostly going for "I can make this game on my own, but I need you guys to help me make it awesome and wholesome". Also, godammit, when did you stop using full stops at the end of your sentences? D:

I don't know to be honest, I think it depends what and where I am posting.
I know sometimes it's there and sometimes it isn't but I haven't figured out what the exact circumstances behind that are! I don't do it intentionally.

I was going to comb my recent posts but then realised this forum doesn't have a "show posts by this user" box in the profile section, how backwards .(

Psycho's perspective is the one I'm seeing but I can see where you're coming from.

Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'

And, naturally, it's going to take Namco Bandai 50 years to localise the bastard, if they ever do.

I don't see DotNW's inclusion as a bad thing, but I'm pretty sure that this is never getting localised and, even if it was, it's not going to be ported to other consoles.

So basically, the new Xbox will be doing what Sony's been shoving down our throats for years and Sony will finally start picking up its act and actually focusing on games again?
