Except, games get made that you are interested in and wouldn't have been made otherwise. I consider that a HUGE upside

That's all fine and dandy. You took on all the risks of a game's publisher, never assumed the right to direct/modify/examine/propose changes to the product you're blindly funding, surrendered all rights to the product beyond a one-use license any Joe Schmoe can get later on, will never see a single dime from the game's sales, put up good money years before any product was created, assumed the risk that the product would never actually be created, further assumed the risk that the product will be complete and utter garbage, and just for good measure likely received a digital (non-transferable) copy of the game.

But hey! You stepped up and did the publishers' job for them! UPSIDE!
