that now instead of people using kickstarter to get funding for a game to be made its going to now be getting funding so sony will fund this game |
lol, you know what didn't just begin? People not following the conversation. Sega agreed to allow Yu to take Shenmue III to kickstarter, this was independant of Sony. Sony may have made a deal with Yu regarding funding after passing the initial goal on Kickstarter, but kickstarter was all Yu and Sega. This, of course, is per Shu Yoshida, but he's on record as having said that...so. Until someone involved refutes that, your angst is misplaced.
Plus, are you honestly suggesting that Kickstarter won't continue to be used for kickstarting a new game AND for situations such as Shenmue III?
