I guess I could be massively overestimating how much money successful authors earn, but doesn't Neal Stephenson have quite a bit of money lying around, which could be used to bootstrap such a project if necessary?
- venomsnake 13y agoYou are massively overestimating for everyone but the top top tier. Neal Stephenson has mostly cult following. Also 38 studios showed what happens when you let your ego fund a studio - not nice. So while I don't doubt that he will be able to provide some funding, probably the sums needed are way too big for him to bridge. I am a backer of the project - lets hope that if the project is doomed they will at least release the assets to the community that funded them.
