How Should Game Developers Handle Failed Kickstarters?

Greg Micek writes: "Our weekly dose of hot takes, occasionally well formed opinions, and fevered outbursts is back. Yup, it's time for the Question of the Week! This week our question is all about what developers should do when their Kickstarter campaign hits the fan. We're not referring to a failed campaign in the sense that they didn't raise enough money, but what happens when they can't deliver on their promises."

People really need to put their expectations in check when they back campaigns.

Disruptor PS1, a pre Goldeneye console FPS from 1996 (with Command and Conquer type FMV cutscenes) and the first game by a pre Spyro Insomniac Studios directed by Mark Cerny. A good game for its time, and pre Bioshock use of telekinesis type powers. A game sadly almost completely lost to time

I have never even heard of it, so that must be a deep cut. Sounds really interesting and I might dig it out :-)

@Cacabunga A classic, no doubt. But, fondly remembered by many.

First one was so good but second one on another level!!!
Still hoping to see a next gen version..

@Cacabunga Yeah, I preferred II for the real-timier combat. I would love to see both remade or remastered.

We need to bring back the golden era of ps1 & ps2 .
We need to see quality games developed with alot of passion to make gamers satisfied .
We need to benefit from new AI technology to bring something new to games something like " nemesis systems " that used in shadow of morder and upgrade it to next level

The economics of games has changed a lot since the PS1 and PS2. As much as I would love a return to those days, it's not not at all likely.
