I can't speak for Chazore, but my "investment" in Star Citizen + Squadron 42 were €24 in total (so €12 for the chance of a new AAA solo game and €12 for the chance of a new AAA MMO without further subscription fees). For that money I can't even get 2 movie tickets or 2 new DVDs/Blu-rays. It's the price of 2 new indie games or a few months of PS+ /XBL Gold.
Even if the two games are never finished (or are getting finished but suck), I already had a lot of enjoyable hours watching the progress of a huge game development and trying out the playable modules for these €24. In a worst case scenario (game development stops) we would probably at least get several hours of cutscenes in this quality:
Of course I would prefer if both games get finished and turn out to be great, but even in this worst case scenario my €24 wouldn't have been wasted, since I got dozens of enjoyable hours out of it (playable alpha versions, hours of cut scenes, an orchestral soundtrack, hundreds of interesting development videos & podcasts and years of entertaining drama in internet forums).
