Please do spout that hipster BS somewhere else, you'll find it's not really taken to kindly here.
They were pretty straight-forward. They said they wanted to make an original IP, and that this was one of their only options to do so.
You can feel "betrayed" all you want, but it really just sounds like you spent a lot of money and now you are realizing you shouldn't have.
Again: you just have buyer's remorse. Obsidian are some of the most dedicated people in this industry.
And how, pray tell, would they have done that? They run their business the way they want. If you thought you were funding some sort of revolution... I'd go back to dreaming of a glorious industry crash that will surely bring world peace.
Do you also think that if you're good and pure of heart you'll get everything you want just because? That you can get any job you want just because?
By the way, what do you think the Kickstarter was if not marketing?
What do you call 79 updates if not transparency?
You're right about everything. I feel remorse for my pledge. Totally true. And yeah, you might call me a dreamer or whatever you want but I did hope for a change.
The 79 updates so far were only "talking" without ANY real gameplay so far. That's what games are all about. You can write lore all day and explain how you plan to do stuff and everything. But nothing is as honest and clear as gameplay. And that's what they've shown to the journalists first.
So yeah, I'm disillusionised now, thanks.
And I can write as many "hipster bs" as I want. I'm not here to make any friends or to please anyone. Are you the forum's official advocate here, anyway?
What do you want man? You want to see the whole game before its realesed? Be mad at yourself and not the company, there doing there best to promote and sell the game and make there customers happy and just because you feel bad about spending 500$$ thats no reson to bad mouth the company over a desision you should have put more thought into.
