What? He even shows the initial videos they showed which clearly show a 2.5D game. It's downgraded but it's still clearly based off of the videos. You said they told everyone the concept art would be the game and nothing else.

Why did Level 5 buy this trash company?

This can't be real right?
Right?
I know this is the most infamous case and all, but I'm so glad I don't back Kickstarters. I would be scared of getting something like this.

The manual not fitting is dumb as hell but people saying that they cheated backers by sending an empty box are just showing an astounding lack of reading comprehension. There's nothing in the description that even suggests that the box would come with a physical copy of the game. It's not even close to a fine print or "technicality" thing.
But the manual not fitting, lol

This box cost me $40.
Yep. I'm lucky I guess that I enjoyed the game so it wasn't a complete loss. I had also just assumed i was out my money and had written it off as a loss which makes receiving everything seen more positive. Have a good one.

Maybe they want their pr teams since they are pretty damm good. They convinced us to give them a lot of money for this game.
;P
Don't know about Bloodstained, but Fangamer are fulfilling certain physical rewards for Shenmue III (like the replica jacket, capsule toy set, probably the art book too).
Not that it means a whole lot. Everything Fangamer produces/creates prototypes for has to be okayed by who they're contracted by; so Comcept in MN9's case. Ultimately Comcept are the ones who said "yep, we're okay for this go get mass produced and get released".

You serious? You think the final game looks close to this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5UXDiQrgI6M?
Yes. It's downgraded but the 2.5d style and perspective are still the same. This was a discussion where the guy claimed they only showed the concept art as an example of how the game would look
I mean, if all you need for a similarity is "2.5d style and perspective" then that applies to basically any platformer ranging from the newest Shantae, to Bloodstained, Giana Sisters, Trine and more. That's a vast array of styles. Your willingness to go to bat for this game despite claiming to be disappointed is incongruent.

I thought we were already over this. Just stop.
I wasn't disappointed with the game. I was disappointed with the Kickstarter. I thought the game was fun.
No you had just decided it was over.

MN9 Kickstarters backers complaining of having received garbage yet phyisical rewards, and we Carmageddon Reincarnation backers still waiting for their rewards after more than 5 years.
Enjoy your garbage damnit, at least you've got something tangible!

I'm so thankful I forgot to back this when it was up on Kickstarter.
Man, what an absolute shitshow haha, I don't think I'm even mad anymore because this is like performance art.
I did like the game despite all, but the kickstarter campaign has been like a competition against themselves to try and keep getting worse and worse with every new update.
Can't wait to finally get these lol.

How do you know that people who shits on the game never actually played it?
When the Kickstarter happened, physical copies were just a far off dream. They weren't a possibility until Deep Silver picked up this game for publishing (and the worst ad campaign ever...).
Unless you're proposing that they were to retroactively provide a much pricer item for backers at no extra cost, there's no way backers could have gotten the physical copy.
The whole point of the empty box tier was to provide some items for collectors and fans to have in the physical space, since it was otherwise looking to be an exclusively digital game.
XD... That was my first Kickstarter I've ever pledge and I feel so lucky that it wasn't much the loss (like 2USD?)... This MN9 game/Dev/PR/support fiasco will be remembered for ages... XD
BTW, honest and innocent question. Who is the 3rd guy? (from left to right)...

The original Kickstarter said there would be a US style manual and a Japanese style manual. That picture looks like the US style. Are we sure it's simply not a case of someone getting an English manual and a Japanese box? The NES manuals don't fit in Famicom boxes either.
It just works. Todd fallout 4
LOL!
But honestly, it's written right there in the backer description - dunno what backers are expecting.

Well his legacy was built on a lie anyways as he didn't create Mega Man.

The fallout guy, Todd Howard. A master of carefully constructed words.
Twitter user even admitted that he then re-read and he ignored thst it was just an empty box and he assumed it would include the game.
Now the manual not fitting is just...wow, after all this time. XD

Such a massive shame how this turned out and how it's tarnishing Inti Creates.
Just in case anyone isn't in the know, check out Mighty Gunvolt Burst!! It's legitimately great, it stars Beck and *IT'S THE GAME MIGHTY NO9 SHOULD HAVE BEEN!*

To be fair, while Inafking didn't create Megaman, he did create Megaman X and everything else that came afterward.
