Game Developers and Kickstarter

[TechnoHobbit]

I feel like it would be somewhat humiliating for big publishers to use Kickstarter. There are also a few problems with Kickstarter, namely Kickstarters usually cover the cost of development. A big publisher wouldn't really care about that, what they want is the profit and even if a Kickstarter does well that doesn't necessarily the game will be successful when it actually comes out. If the game doesn't make a lot of profit afterward it will have become a waste of time and talent for them, they could have used the developers else where on a game like Assassin's Creed that would have been a guaranteed success.
