Its not just that you are a prepaying with high risk, but that what is essentially a charity is somehow treated as a legitimate business enterprise. That the community fully accepts, and even expects the producer to continue selling the product after having the entire thing funded by whatever fans. For a physical good, this can be justified, but for software... The benefit being some 33% proce reduction, or a special in-game kickstarter item, or a forum badge, or a little physical good related to the game and production costs vastly underestimated, or some other nonsense. That people buy into this, I don't like at all. But the arrogance, stupidity and outright malicious of the devs that make use of it is infinitely more offensive. And thats just amongst the once-respectable developers..
