Here's hoping, but also, the pricing for the KS wasn't the greatest, and the goal was just completely unrealistic. $100,000 and $24/digital $37/both...that I could have seen happening.
I think his ambitions for the kickstarter were great, a limited physical edition built like that would have been awesome and thus why the price was so high because it wouldn't be cheap., though trying to do both improve the digital version and make the physical version happen was perhaps not the best idea in hindsight (just made it hard for people who wanted to improve the localization and get something out of it, but didn't want physical goods). Beyond that such a big goal for the second game in a series that the first was mediocre at best was indeed hopeful dreaming. Ideally if he can build up a fan base it won't be such a bigdream in the future though.
Also ideally sony opens up their policies a bit more and starts making it easier for people running kickstarters to include stuff like a code for the digital version as one of the goals. Nintendo seems to have opened that up a bit as we are seeing wiiu stretch goals on kickstarter a lot, but sony doesn't seem to be quite as open right now, which if that changed it would likely become easier for people wanting to kickstart stuff like vita/psp localizations.
It's almost 1900 this Morning. Seems to be chugging along at about 100-125 a day now, which is fine. We'll still hit the 2500 threshold by the 8th at that rate.
Did find out some interesting things last night when the vouchers went out. Apparently Virginia Tech has blacklisted gaijinworks.com, so a number of orders with email at vt.edu bounced. Still trying to figure out what that's all about.
The sales sound good, hopefully things continue to go well and your fanbase grows so your future projects can work with a little less effort/work
and that is weird that a school has you blacklisted.
also with the vouchers that are being handed out if someone got
are they for sure getting the KS version, or is there still a chance your double check system could keep them from getting it? I'm not to worried as I both contacted you about it already and emailed like you told me to, but it would be nice to know in general.
