The Chris Roberts + Kickstarter combo has worried me from day one... But he can still raise more money since a majority of backers still seem to believe in him, quite aggressively so, too. Even if this ends up being a great game, I'm sure many will be sorely disappointed (and the higher the stakes are raised, the more will be) when they learn it is still just a computer game. A piece of software in an artificially constrained sandbox, necessary shortcuts taken during game design, etc., something with a period of excitement, peak, and lifetime.
