IMO a fairly large dev asking for Kickstarter money is a bit rich. However if they are asking for money to publish a game that would otherwise not see the light of day that's fair enough. In this case the Kickstarter was so close to the Switch release date that the game had to have been finished. They wanted fans to back it to wear the cost...
Then the fans backed it.......
Then it was delayed....
Then they were given Steam codes.....
Then people realized you can't play this game on PC due to the mechanics....
Then reviewers got the Switch code (before the backers)...
And it ran like a turd on Switch vs WiiU.....
And the backers still don't have it....

Forshame Platinum! Forshame!

Yeah the whole thing has been a trainwreck. I love Platinum but they dropped the ball hard here.

They should at least have paid for the port themselves and optimized it properly. I feel like it's become a matter of Kamiya being obsessed with trying to shove his passion project done people's throats regardless of it not being financially successful.
