The only Kickstarter-funded game I've ever played that didn't disappoint is FTL - probably because of it's simplicity and initial design around a shoestring budget (the Kickstarter funds were just used for polish, apparently). Shadowrun Returns, however, disappointed me for reasons that have been already stated in this topic. Wasteland 2 looks a bit better, but after SRR, I plan on going into it not expecting much - and have in fact deliberately avoided hearing about people's experiences with it's $60 beta. (Speaking of which, what's up with that?)
I still can't help but get really excited for Pillars of Eternity - as unlike those games, it's by an experienced development team which has previously created games I adore. My only real worry is that Obsidian might have put a bit much on their plate with the entire additional city and other extra features they came up with on the spot during the Kickstarter.
